I was recently here for rehab after having a total knee replacement . I will never go back there again if I had to and I don't recommend you put any of your family members or loved ones here. The place is horrible as far as the nursing staff goes there was only a handful that actually like their job and care for the people, the food ,I wouldn't give to my dog if I had one. I do have to say the physical therapy department, housekeeping department and laundry staff are the most kind and friendly people in that place. I've had better treatment from my enemies then the nursing staff in that facility write down to the RNs and LPNs. your drink choices for breakfast is coffee, tea or pink lemonade, for lunch and dinner your drink options are coffee, tea, pink lemonade, diet coke, ginger ale ,where is the nutrition in any of that for these elderly people,you're lucky to even get juice at breakfast if they have it, there are out of coffee creamer 90% of the time you're lucky to get a little packet of jelly or condiments for your food, sometimes you get one sugar on your tray sometimes you get 10 they would get better treatment in prison. There are many more horror stories I could tell about the care of the patients in this place but I will not get into it on here.

Great facility, the staff are caring and supportive. The building is clean and has a good energy to it. The management team is very pleasant and responsive to any concerns brought forward. Highly recommend this facility if your loved one needs short term rehab

Very disappointing with the facility. I wouldn't send my enemy there. The disrespect from the staff was shocking. If you ask a question the response is rude . If you press the call button you wait 10 minutes for someone to respond . My parent was giving someone else dinner and when I stated that was not her name for the dinner I was told by the nurse it didn't matter for the name. I'm concerned for her safety of care . She was given a dinner of a turkey delivery meet on a hamburger bun with lettuce and cheese plain that looked old. The nurse said to my mother you don't want it then grabbed the tray and took it away plus this meal had someone else's name tagged to it. I asked for another option for her the nurse responded no and walked away leaving mother to have no dinner. The facility has a bad odor of urine and the floors are so dirty. The same dirty spots I saw two days prior are still visible and never been cleaned. I'm concerned for the air quality and personal care for not just my mother but other residents staying at fall river Jewish home on Robison street fall river ma. I'm very very concerned of my mother's health and care being taken. I'm concerned of the staff retaliation towards my mother. I'm am document everything and At this point I think the board of health need to visit this facility.

I personally had a WONDERFUL experience at the Fall River Jewish Home. Friendly staff and nurses, the care was exceptional. So much so that I frequently come to visit the staff and some of my friends who still stay here. They had a big dance party last week with a performer and that nurse Brittany can dance! It was a wonderful time getting to see the staff and residents dance and have fun! We all loved it.

This was my first time in a rehab facility and all the staff there were great. The facility was clean and everyone was friendly, the food could be better but it’s a nursing home . The social worker Kayla was attentive to me and answered all my questions, you can tell she really cares about the patients. I would recommend 👍
