When I referred to Woodruff Convalescent Center three years ago I was diagnosed with metastatic colon cancer. I thought it was a death sentence. I plunged into a deep depression over this news. I was able to over come this depression with the help of all the staff here. The activities department was instrumental in me recovering from my depression. There are some very special people staffing that department. The gave me puzzles to occupy my mind and I began to attend the daily activities. Overall they were a should…

My Mother is here. Over the past year she kept calling 911 and all would break loose! Fire engines, para medics, etc. Finally, Adult protective services contacted my brother and I to ask why she didn't have 24/7 care? Well, she can't afford it, nor can we. With the help of Medicare (god bless them) we found this place. She can no longer walk, nor hear. Hey! I wouldn't want to end up in this place, but, that's my feeling, now that I'm mostly ok. Yes, people cry and scream occasionally. A nur…

Mother was sent to Woodruff Convalescent Center from the hospital as she needed rehab. She was only in there for 10 days, and they had a great rehab program. It is so big and not as personal as the one she is in now. The food to me didn't look as good. The staff were OK. The room was adequate and clean. If you live close by, that would be convenient for the person, but I wouldn't want to be there.

My Mother has been in this nursing home for several years. The attention and care that she is receiving is outstanding! She attends daily activities and has a great relationship with the staff (some) who have been working there for a long time. Whenever I do have a concern or problem, they do whatever it takes to accommodate my Mother. I am really happy with the care!

I had been in and out of Woodruff Convalescent Center for a couple of times. I had a room with two beds in it. The staff were helpful and they had great personalities, I had no complaints with them. There were a lot of seniors who were older than me but it did not bother me. Although, I was a little uncomfortable because there was a lot of crying. I was not so crazy with their food but I ate as much as I could because I had to. The portions of the food got smaller compared to the last time I was there. I was just t…

When I had my knee replacement surgery, I went to Woodruff Convalescent Center. I have no complaints with their staff, but I am just a little uncomfortable with the place. There are a lot of crying. There are a lot of senior citizens in the place. The food is not great at all. I am just here because there is nowhere else to accept me when I want to go somewhere. They need to give a little more attention to the senior citizens.
