The staff was very nice and proffesional. They treated my father with the best care all the way until he passed there. The Security guard Andre was so caring. He went above and beyond by talking to my two teenage sons when we came to see my father after he passed. They both said how thankful for him talking to them.

This place is very dangerous!! You rarely see people leaving at their own will. This place is a death trap and they continue hide whatever they are either deliberately doing or recklessly doing to patients there.Even their Head Nurse a black guy is in on covering up their mistakes. God forbid that you leave a love one unattended, more than likely they will die. Now you do have some excellent nurses and technicians there but for the most part something is wrong at this facility and people are going to jail once this stuff comes out!!!! On what’s really happening there!! If you can, fight for your love one and send them somewhere else! This facility has to shutdown!!

My stay was great! I loved the blueberry pancakes!!! The nurses were wonderful. My respiratory therapist motivated me to get better.

Staff was very personable and caring. They took interest in my setbacks and my progress. The doctors had great bedside manners. I don’t eat red meat and the kitchen went the extra mile to accommodate me.

I really enjoyed my stay at Emory LTAC after my initial hospitalization. The staff was excellent and I was able to reach my goals prior to leaving. I would definitely recommend for anyone who needs additional care after being hospitalized.

I had a good experience. All of the nurses and staff were very nice- they treated me like family. The food was VERY good.

I would like for people to know that the staff here are kind, considerate, and educated. The staff is what impressed me here. Dietary took great care of my needs. I got everything I needed and wanted. STAFF IS EXCELLENT.

This hospital met all my requirements. And I had an overall great experience. Also the staff was very nice.

I had a good experience. The nurses made sure I had everything I needed. They were really nice to me.

The doctors were wonderful! Wish I could take them with us. Got my husband off the ventilator which I wanted so badly. The nurses were awesome!!!

Thanks so much for taking such great care of my mother

WORST PLACE EVER …… IF U GOT A FAMILY MEMBER U LOVE PLEASE DO NOT PUT THEM IN THIS FACILITY…… THEY ARE THE REASON OF MY MOTHER PASSING

It was excellent. I was there for wound care and they explained everything. The food was excellent- especially the fried chicken!

I’m so appreciative of the staff at Emory and the care provided. They brought me back from the brink. I am very happy with the care I received. I’m almost sad to go but glad to go. Thanks to the entire staff at Emory.

The food was very good! The patient care techa were very helpful with my colostomy.

After having covid. This me helped get me back on track to somewhadical staff helped get me back on track to somewhat being normal

This place brought me back! It is a wonderful place to be.

The staff is kind, courteous, and caring. They good good care of me.

Emory LTAC treated me with much compassion and respect. The nurses here were just great- every single nurse was consistently kind and caring. I would recommend anyone who needs this type of care to choose to come here.

Where do I begin? Husband arrived 1/12/21. Room was hot ( ac not working properly) bed was broke, and tv did not work. They tried to fix unit but unfortunately could not at the moment. Solution? He was issued a fan. Staff was not thrilled to be called to adjust fan. Buy hey that’s what he was given to work with. I Was informed old building ac doesn’t work as it should. Staff definitely over worked ( maybe ratio was 1:6). Was told plenty times they were short staffed. Husband had to wait for long periods of time to get respiratory, nurse, or tech in his room. I called them all day everyday.( I felt the agitation from receptionist every single time I called). I would call if my husband pressed call button and they would respond how can I help you? My husband had a trachea he could not speak. Why not just send someone to the room? My husband would need to be suctioned or changed. I called respiratory tech and was told don’t call her for that! Really?? My husband dreaded on pm shift change. Nights were horrible for him. I was even told you just called I’m not sending no one else. Really??? I don’t care if I call every 30 minutes my husband is in your care. I was told a care plan would be in place for his recovery. Never happened! No one was on the same page. A Nurse even did the opposite of what the Dr told me needs to be done. Procedures done without my knowledge. Unaware of what was going on numerous times. Difficult to get frequent updates. Wound care and speech were the only departments that kept me updated. Respiratory tech Gloria took extra time to talk and get my husband home off the ventilator and trachea. Respiratory tech Dean also was exceptional with my husbands care. Dana in speech was a breath of fresh air for my husband. Her smile and positive vibe he looked forward to daily. Nurse Maureen ( I don’t know if I spelled her name correctly) he said also did a wonderful job. Beatrice nurse house supervisor tried her best to rectify situations with staff but it just never improved until my husband was able to verbalize his wants and needs. Finally comes discharge on 2/4/21. Home health care set up was an epic failure! As I write this review nothing has went as planned. No physical therapy, no license professional visit, nothing. Was finally told this a.m. the company they referred does not have the staff to accommodate my husbands needs. Wow!!! Unbelievable!!! That should have been checked and arranged before discharge. Anyway, check all other options before sending your loved one. It’s hard to make a solid decision just off of web page and reviews because you cant take a tour of facility prior to choosing them for care. Horrible experience.

This is the best hospital that I’ve been in since having hip surgery- and I have been in 4!!! This is the best care I have ever received. I give Kudos to my team of doctors and the nurses were total sweethearts!!!

People really went out of their way for me- the nurse techs went beyond the call of duty. Physical therapy was very positive and motivated me to achieve new goals.

Everyone from top to bottom was great- best staff ever! They were very calm, patient, and understanding with my mother-in-law. One of the best hospital staffs that I have seen. We are very happy with the care my mother-in-law received. Everything from the building to the cafeteria food was great. Respiratory and rehab care was excellent- they knew their job very well. She was even in the special care unit for a week and had great care.

The rehab staff was great. I had a good experience.

This is one of the most incompetent institutions I have ever interacted with. It doesnt seem like there is anyone in charge of anything. They are completely disorganized and unprofessional to the degree that it has impacted my family members treatment on multiple occasions. I would never allow any of my family to stay here again.

They took good care of me here.

Everything was really nice, including the food.

I worked at Emory Ltac for right under 3 years. I’ve never met nurses that worked so hard and truly cared about their patients. Julia, Glenn, Rosa, Paige, just to name a few. Dr. Mikel is one of a kind. The rehab department and speech therapist are excellent. You will see amazing results! I encourage anyone to give this hospital a try. You won’t regret it!

I didnt have any problems- everyone was so nice. I had a good experience and I hate that I had to leave!

I would like to recognize the rehab staff. I had some great nurses and techs. So many people provided great care. I really liked my primary doctor. I am sorry that I have to go!

The nursing staff was kind, helpful, and attentive. Respiratory therapist was great. The speech therapist focused on mom, made sure she was taken care of, and included me in the sessions so I would know how to help her.

I would definitely recommend this hospital to everyone. Food was not bad, nurses was awesome and doctors answered every question.

The nurses were great- the charge nurse and nurse manager came to check on me regularly. The occupational and physical therapy staff were exceptional. It was a great stay.

Have to admit, they have a system where if you need to dispute say for example, a double charge, you have to send a letter here where the same very company that double charged you gets to debate whether its a justified charge or not. Money hungry folks. On top of a double charge I went home with the wrong medication that caused me more pain and problems FORCING me to go back and have them charge me even more.Youre better off dealing with injuries on your own than going here.

I had an excellent visit. I got 5-star quality service as a patient here. Thank you for giving me the best care possible.

A great place for recovery! Knowledgeable staff and helpful, healing hands. The best wound care. The food, the staff, and everyone here has been very helpful. I have nothing but good things to say and I have been a patient here more than once. I would recommend to anyone needing this kind of help.

I would like to recognize the whole staff for being very good, attentive and supportive. They exceeded our expectations. The rehab staff arranged their schedules so that I could learn and participate in her therapy.

They took very good care of me, especially when I was in the ICU. The room was clean. I got my medications on time. My family picked it out for me and I had a great experience.

This was my fifth time as a patient here. I like being here. Everyone is nice. They have good food. The nurses come fast and I dont have to wait long to get medications.

I was recently hospitalized for 6 weeks. The Doctors, Nurses, Food Services, Case Management and other support staff were extremely professional, attentive and helpful. Overall the level of care that I received was SUPERB!!

Where can I start! This has been a long journey of recovery for my daughter. I am VERY GRATEFUL and appreciative of all the services that were provided to my daughter and me. Starting with the doctors, nurses, the nurse techs, respiratory therapists, occupational, physical, and speech therapists, to the dietary staff and custodians, even the cafeteria staff, I just want to say, this facility provided excellent service throughout our whole stay at Emory LTAC. Even the security staff made sure I got to my car safely at night. Most of all, who stood out the most, is Dr. Mikell and the physical therapist Kelsey, who exceeded above and beyond the call of duty. I would score them above a 10 if I could! I would recommend this facility to anyone.

My dad Derrick B. stayed there and the care he received was amazing. The improvement in his condition was outstanding. I would recommend this facility to anyone who is in need of care. Mark B.

If anybody needs to come here, this is the place to go! They know what they are doing here, I can tell you that. I cant find anything wrong with anything!

I was exceptionally pleased with the rehabilitation staff. The staff was very professional- from the EVS workers all the way to the nurses- deserve props. They met my goal to get the tracheostomy out for my wife. I was very happy with the experience overall.

Everything was great.

This facility has some of the rudest people working for them. Shawnda is rude and ghetto, she doesnt know how to speak to people.

Anybody and everybody who took care of me was great. Very patient. I could not ask for better.

The team @ this facility exceeded my expectations. i cannot name just one Nurse, Dr, Tech due to each one that we encountered were absolutely amazing!!!!!! My husband was well taken care of at all times.....Thanks LTAC STAFF

Very Disappointing! Emory Healthcare should be embarrassed to have this facility associated with its brand. The staff are all knowledgeable and capable but the bedside interaction with the patient is MINIMAL at best and most decisions are made by whatever notes (if any) are captured to the chart on a daily basis about the patient. ALL the doctors LACK BEDSIDE MANNER or empathy. The nurses and techs change EVERYDAY limiting the ability to know the patient and their needs. Which keeps the PROFESSIONAL whom you are relying on - a step behind and unable to respond timely to a patient in crisis. Its a POOR system and any chance I get I’m going to encourage people to take their loved ones elsewhere!!

Really really good and nice place to be in 🙏❣️ God bless all the staffDr Michael Dr Sharma best Doctors ✊🏻Wanda the social worker really mean she have to go

My husband came to this place after pushed by the social workers and doctors at Emory hospital to leave the hospital. I toured two different places, one in Atlanta that seemed as though they were better able to handle my husband but I chose this one because I thought since they kept saying it was their LTAC it would be the best choice. I regret it so much. Emory should cut ties with this place. Care is nothing as they promised, MDs are virtually non existent, nurse rude. I came often to see my husband sitting in his own urine and excrement like a dog at a pound. Like someone else said please do your research YOURSELF. Don’t choose this place based on the name.

When I first got here, I didnt understand what was going on. But they expained everything and helped me get better. I didnt enjoy being in the hospital, but I liked being here. I would recommend this hospital to other people.

The staff has been very thorough and helpful. I wouldn’t change a thing. I like the way the staff trains their new employees/new interns.

My mom was recently a patient at Emory LTAC. I must express my gratitude for their kindness, compassion, promptness, and uplifting, motivating energy.My mother was a patient at Emory LTAC for 30 days and they provided exceptional care. She will be returning home at 89 years old more mentally alert than she has been in 5 years.I would give Emory LTAC 5 stars for promptness, knowledge & skills, cleanliness, patient rooms have been recently updated, everything was explained in detail including medication administration, readings on the monitors, etc.I would like to offer my sincerest gratitude for the care provided to my mother.

I felt that i received the best care possible. I would definitely recommend the services here.

My experience was greatThe staff was very helpful during my stay. They assisted my wound with care and ease away very insightful with explaining what was going on.

This place was an unmitigated mess of nonsense and neglect during my mother’s stay from late February through the first week of March (2019). Practically, non attention from disinterested doctor(s)! Emory’s good name is approaching death here. Bury it in the massive graveyard just across the street.P.S.I had my mother transferred to Select Specialty in Midtown. Doctors check patients regularly there.

Wow, where do I begin. Talking about Emory is like talking about family. My fiancé was admitted at Emory LTAC months ago. He suffered a serious brain bleed leaving him clinging to life. The whole entire staff at Emory LTAC is absolutely AMAZING!!! The encouragement the love even the free meal that I received from the cafe. I get emotional thinking of the journey of my love one as we watched him go from non responsive to smiles and different facial expression. I thank God for Emory, you guys went far and beyond the call of duty for us. And for that we thank you and love you ALL.Thankful and Blessed,Jackie

My wife was a patient there for over 2--weeks and believe me this is NOT a good or great care facility. The management and especially the care staff were not professional or friendly - they were a lazy and rude bunch of women and young girls. I would never refer anyone to this place! It was horrible!

Hi. My name is Mr. DeMario Moore. I just want to welcome myself at the LTAC hospital as a patient. As my stay, I encouraged a lot of things by being here as a patient. The staff is real great, nice, and respectful. I recommend anyone else, other family and friends, to come to Emory LTAC long term acute care. This hospital is a great place. They have a great environment. Great staff. Courteous. The food is great! The staff uniforms are color coded, which was helpful. They greet you and assist you with whatever you need to be assist with. I like it.

My Mom has been her for 2 weeks now and she has received nothing but the best of care. The CNA’s were exceptionally attentive and the Nurses were also very nice. My brother was skeptical at first but once our Mom arrived, the service has been the best. I give the hospital a 5 star. Ms. Darcella is nothing but the best. The hospital definitely need more CNA’s like her. The hospital is in need of some renovations but it is exceptionally clean considering it’s age.

This is the worse place; they dont care, full of attitude. my husband fell out the bed and nobody seemed to really care but me. So I am looking to have him moved somewhere else as soon as i can find a place. remind it he had only been in there care for 5 days. we leave our loved ones in their care to help them get better and not to worry about their safety. .

My name is Adriana Guardiola and my dad is in this place since Thursday 08/22 in room 515 gilnei Bonfim and he absolutely loves this place and so do IThe pct and nurses are awesome they care and takes awesome care of him, very professionalThe place is clean and he’s starting to scare me cause he’s not talking about coming home lolThis place rocks!!!Awesome jobs ladies and male nurses

The rehabilitation team are the stars at Emory LTAC, Neil, Robert, Serita, and Kristie went above and beyond each and every session. They not only worked with us during the sessions but provided additional exercises and information so my husband could continue to work between sessions. We owe his rapid progress to their compassionate and professional care. Kisha in radiology, was wonderful, helping me to understand the testing and making sure my husband and I received every consideration. There were many outstanding nurses and patient care technicians but nurses, Emma, Frances, TedNedra and Allan as well as patient care technicians, Darcella, Quentanoe, Corey and Juliet were exceptional. Maria at the nurses station always had a smile and brightened the day. Even the security staff was helpful and kind. This kindness during such a difficult time will not be forgotten. Thank you.

When I first got to the hospital I wasnt very happy because I was so far from home and I was upset because I was in so much pain. Then when I got here, I met this girl named Lylynda and I was so upset, I was in tears. She said dont worry about anything. This is a nice place and we will take care of you here. From that day, everything got better and better. She braided may hair and made me feel very comfortable along with the nurses and other techs. Now Im leaving, I am sad about leaving but Im going to a place thats going to make me better because I have met all of my goals here at the long term acute care hospital.

Do not recommend. I felt pressured by the Emory Hospital staff to go to this location because they were their LTAC and I will forever regret it. Please do your research on this place. I wish we went to the other hospital in Atlanta.

My aunt spent four weeks here. On what was supposed to be her last week before she was released she had some type of mysterious relapse. They never turned her and after she complained to the hospital administration everyone became rude. My aunt passed yesterday and no one can tell us why. She was supposed to be released tomorrow. If you love your family DONT let them come here. Theyll leave worst or not at all!!!!!!!!

I am so thankful for Decatur Hospital. My experience with my sisters stay was phenomenal . The staff was so caring and considerate. Thank you so much!

I brought my mama here today at 4 oclock and the place shes been is triage and registration. This is a poor choice of a hospital,and I asked how much longer shes next. What does next consist of tomorrow? She hasnt eaten since this morning and shes a diabetic.

I would give 0 stars if I could. These people are the worst. My grandmothers condition has declined while in their care. They are rude, snobbish, etc. Dr. Miller is the absolute WORST. He is condescending and childish. I am reporting them once my grandmother is out of their care as they seem vindictive and hateful. I wish I read reviews before they transported her. DO NOT GO HERE! If you truly love your family, send them elsewhere.

The nurse techs were very nice and helpful during my stay. 4 starsThe nurses were awful . Their were only 2 nurses that seemed caring at all. The rest of them acted like they didnt want to be at work.

Whole staff was excellent especially social worker and her supervisor

If you or your loved one is able to call for help I might would consider going to this facility. However, my husband has aphasia and could not speak or ring for a nurse because he was disabled. I would never leave him alone and Im glad I didnt because there was a mess up on his medications several times. Some of the nurses and aides were great but I cant say that for everyone. Twice doctors there discontinued medicines that had been prescribed at Emory that were crucial to his health. After confronting them, they added them back to his medicine regiment.In addition, it was crucial that he be turned every 2 hours to prevent skin break down and rarely that ever happened. (except when Santino was on duty-he was the best!!!) Many times I would have to call someone but again if I couldnt have been there where would have been?Another incident, I was contacted and told I had a family meeting scheduled with the Case Manager at a particular time and date. Then at the designated time the case manager had no idea.Because my husband was on blood thinners for blood clots the doctor at Emory explained that he could very possibly have another brain bleed. One night I was very concerned about some changes I saw in my husband, I requested a cat scan be done to make sure he was not having another brain bleed. Dr. Walker refused on the grounds he did not believe he was having a brain bleed but he could not promise me he wasnt. It took calling my daughters up ant 2am to plead and beg for a scan to be performed.I personally would not take a family member back to this location and pray my family would not take me. My husband was in there Dec 14 to Feb 15.The one positive thing I can say it the respiratory team is the best. Dean, Carl and Tybia are among the best we dealt with. I felt Dean cared about my husband as much as a family member. I will always be thankful to the resp. team for taking such good care of my husband.

Very very disrespectful

I am really thankful for what they have done for him- getting off the breathing machine. He made a lot of progress.

Everyone was nice, Had great room with a nice view.

Great PT, OT and Speech therapy staff!

My mom spent 5 weeks here in Feb and March of 2017. Although we had a few caring and compassionate nurses and therapists, we also had quite a few who were not compassionate or caring. Fortunately, we were able to be with my mom 24 hours a day while she was in this facility. Many times we had to ask several times before we would receive the help she needed. All I could think about was the patients who waited much longer if they did not have an advocate for them to call over and over or to search out help. They seemed put out many times that we were even there. It is much easier to not have to do much if there is not someone calling all the time for help that was needed.Unfortunately, I had a head nurse come in the room at 3:00 in the morning yelling at me across the room. The nurse and tech, Sharonda and Deslyn, that night had told her that I was taking pictures on my phone. If they had a little compassion, they would have turned around to see me sobbing as my mom had asked about hospice earlier that day. Sharonda even knew about this as I had discussed it with her earlier that evening. This could have all been avoided had they just taken a moment to turn around and check on me. When the head nurse came in the room accusing me of this action, I, of course, had no idea what she was talking about. Understandably, I was quite upset, and she proceeded to tell me I was over reacting to her accusations. I still wonder why the nurses cared if I was taking pictures - were they doing something they were not suppose to be doing or were they not doing something they should be doing? Makes you wonder! This is with my extremely sick mom trying to rest. I will say when I called to report this event, Bea was receptive to my complaint. Of course there is no way to know if anything was done about this unprofessional behavior of the nurses and tech. Phyllis never came in to apologize for her behavior. In fact, she never came to the room for the remaining 4 weeks when she was head nurse like the other head nurses always did. Unfortunately, we did have Shardonda as a nurse a couple of times. She lied about medicines she was giving my mom. Be aware if your sick one is being taken care of by these people.If you are in need of a LTAC, I would strongly recommend you consider other options. When we visited this hospital, the last question I asked the therapist that gave us the tour was, If you had a loved one who needed this type of hospital, would you feel comfortable having them at Decatur. She said, Yes, After my experience, I would tell her that I hope she never finds her self in the position of having her mom or any loved one in this situation, but if she does, she needs to reconsider taking them to a different LTAC. In the 5 weeks we were there, there were many patients that passed away just on the hall near my mom.Finally, if you do find your loved one here, stay clear of Dr Miller. He is condescending. He did not want to answer our questions. He would respond with a rude comment. He acted like we were questioning his diagnosis when we asked about medicines.What was he hiding? Even the case worker was not surprised when we mentioned his rudeness. I would consider just not having him come in the week he is on duty and waiting until a new doctor comes in the following week. He is that bad!On a better note, be sure to look for Phil and Doug for night time respiratory therapists. They always came when I called throughout the night and did whatever they could to make my mom comfortable. Also, be sure to find Dean, day time respiratory therapist. He was the light in all of this experience. I do not know what we would have done without the few kind, caring people,

Very professional staff. All of my expectations were met.

This hospital, or should I say death trap is the worst. My mother went here. They made her condition worse. The nurses and techs are terrible. They have go out in the middle of night shift get get alcholic drinks. They brought them back and was drinking on the job. One of the nurses even had the nerve to invite me out and leave her patients. I reported this, and the director of LTAC, Valencia refused to hear my concerns about this behavior. Beware of the Dr. Terri TenHoor. She performed unnecessary painful procedures on my mother, which caused her to lose so much blood that she had to go to intensive care for weeks. We asked a question about my mothers care, she stormed out and threatened to call the cops. I never even act nasty to her She was nasty, disrespectful, careless, insensitive. She treated my family terribly when my mother passed.

Do not bring your love one here. They are unprofessional, rude, and generally do not care. Shame on yall for the way my wife has been treated
