Great Stay!
Today we said farewell to Ronald F. after having been at Rochester Manor since April 2020. He had set a goal for himself that he was getting home and although it took a while, he did it! He stated: "I had a great stay, despite the circumstances of not being able to move out of bed for the first 5 months I was here. With the help of PT (Deanna and Pat) they got me to the position of where I'm at now...walking! Thank you to all of the staff at Rochester Manor. I appreciate all of you!"
Thank you Rochester Manor Family

Positive Outcome
Richard admitted to Rochester Manor on 8/23/21 from a local ER where he presented following a fall at home. He has a history of diabetes, stroke, coronary artery disease. Although he did not meet the criteria to admit to the hospital, he was able to admit for skilled nursing and rehab services under the Medicare Waiver Program! He lives alone and both hospital staff and center staff felt he would benefit from these services and Richard was in agreement. During his stay he received nursing care, physical and occupational therapy. Upon admission he required supervision with transfers with his rollator and at time of discharge he was independent with this. Good luck Richard, we wish you the best!
Therapy was right on point
4 stars! I thought I received good care. Therapy was right on point. I see a big difference with my balance and stamina. Everyone was really nice here!
