Some of the people here are nice and helpful. However there are other who work there that leave or hangout in the parking lot for hours and DO NOT do their job. Those people often times are rude and disrespectful to their colleagues.

My mother-in-law spent about two and a half weeks here in July/August 2017. I visited nearly every day. This review is from my perspective, as someone visiting a patient. I was there often enough that it became familiar and my initial impressions were changed.The building has easy access from the street and a ground-level parking lot that is accessed by the rear alley. The building is worn and looks like it has housed many other businesses before it was Beverly West. There are multiple coats of sticky paint on some of the surfaces. There is a smell that begins in the elevator and carries into the second floor, where the patients dwell. Everything is old; many things rattle and seem ill-suited to their intended tasks. The thermostat is adequate but not comfortable. The hallways bustle with members of the staff and with people scooting to and fro in their wheelchairs. The TV room is always blasting Judge Judy or its equivalent. Cries of “Nurse!” come from rooms more often than I liked to hear. The common areas are loud enough that it carries into the bedrooms, making quiet moments unusual. Patients are placed three in a room. Every room has a window, a television, and curtains to separate the patients. There is no medical equipment in the rooms, other than old adjustable beds. Beverly West is too shabby to feel like a hospital; it’s not even close.The staff that I spoke with seemed like good, caring people. They don’t give their attention freely though. They huddle behind the counter at the front desk and either talk amongst themselves or don’t bother looking up from their work. Some of them bring their kids to work. When you see staff in the halls they are in the process of performing a task. Their eyes and minds are fixed on what they’re doing and, again, don’t give their attention freely. When you can talk to them, though, they are willing to assist as best they can. Beverly West seems to have a lot of internal communication problems. My mother-in-law complained of cramps so she requested bananas with breakfast. After two days without I requested them for her. I saw the guy write it on her menu sheet in her file. She never received any. There were other similar things that make me feel there is a systemic problem, maybe not with the staff at the desk but somewhere. It’s troubling. There were specific problems with her doctor and physical therapist not taking her complaints seriously. When the doctor finally believed her it was to send her to the emergency room. As it turns out there was a medical reason why her physical therapy wasn’t working and it took two and a half weeks to determine it. When we returned with her to the hospital the contrast between there and Beverly West was stark; Beverly West feels unclean and chaotic.So, I mentioned that my opinion of Beverly West changed across my visits. My very first impression was that Beverly West was dirty. I no longer think that. In my time there I saw people mopping and cleaning and doing everything right. The age of the facility and its equipment makes it feel dirty, but it is not. Instead I would say the place is not antiseptic. My second impression was that the place was depressing. It felt like an old folks’ home where everyone was sick and getting sicker. That’s wrong. There were people of all ages there and I watched young and old improve and get discharged. I spoke with one or two people and they were content enough. There was no creeping crud illness that gripped each patient; I think it was my own bias that created this thought.My overall impression is that I wished she would have been placed elsewhere. I do not recommend this facility to you or anyone you love. I give them a passing grade of two stars because I saw them accomplishing their goals but they do it in poor form. Despite the name that Google Maps gives this place while my mother-in-law stayed there 1020 S Fairfax Ave had the name Beverly West Healthcare hanging over their front door.

Horrible place! Workers here lack training and compassion for the residents here . An immobile relative waited 5 hours for their diaper to be changed. Equipment and beds are outdated; they require a person to crank handles to elevated beds. With that said,This is very uncomfortable when someone has fragile bones and Things like reposition take several calls before the request is made! If you can avoid place, please do!
