Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Modesto

This place truly helped me at my worst physically, Favorite OT was Marlene, and Hollywood Tyler, thank you to entire staff for making me feel welcome and getting me back on my feet, doing a fantastic job there Dave Leyva.

After a week in the hospital from a cerebral stroke, I was given the opportunity to choose where I wanted to work my way back to to health. I chose an acute rehab facility, Encompass Health, in Modesto, California, mainly because it was near my son. Little did I know what a fortuitous choice I made.
First, the promise of a three hour combination of occupational therapy, physical therapy and speech therapy was a reality. From OT therapist Josh directing my first shower and shampoo to Jason working on eliminating my double vision I was on regimen focused on my new normal. Adding to the mix were the physical therapists Elizabeth and Tyler plus speech therapist Brande. Together the team worked on building my strength, stabilizing my balance, teaching me to walk and tricks for navigating my new way of life. With firm encouragement and compassion, they coached me, prodded me and mentored me to a place I never thought I would be again. Second, the nursing staff was professional, efficient, and compassionate. There are too many to name here. However, many thanks to my case manager Rebecca for accommodating my needs and handling all transfers with care.
Third, the kitchen. Being put on a heart healthy diet means no salt. The whole staff, including the cafeteria made sure I stuck to the diet. I must say at first I was a little taken aback, but adjusted to a plate made as tasty as possible with fresh fruit and vegetables. They also took into account that I could not cut meat, so the meat was always very tender.
Last, but not least, the building. My only complaint was the air conditioner broke down two nights in a row leaving the room uncomfortably warm. Other than that, the cleaning staff keeps the building immaculately clean. And the gym is watched over by the therapists, making sure each object touched by a client is sanitized. All precautions are taken.
This is why I give my highest recommendation to Encompass health rehab in Modesto.

Pros: The building was kept clean and tidy. The physical therapists were kind and made sure to take one's pain into cosideriation when setting the day's session. The overall vibe was that of a pleaseant place.

Cons: The nursing and CNAs, at least a small part, seemed to be in a consistant rush. When moving patients, paticlarculary at night, the did not wait around for patiens to be in the correct posotion. The led at the least to some discomfort; at the worst I almost was dropped. I know worse can happen to others. The other con is the "doctor". The Dr. Assigned to myself, i asked two questions over two differenet days. The first question was asked after being there a week and af which the docto stated he never read me file so had no specific info for me. He proceed to give me generic health lesson information on the topic. The second second question i asked a day or two later and was more specific to why i was there, so a better chace of an ansewer. Except, i again was dimisissed and told to just lose weight and drink water. For context i am still young yet still had a stroke just over a month ago. I asked if headaches occuring regulary could be cause for concern. This is to which i was told to lose weigh. I did speak to someone later and was given correct info. I didn't speak to dr any more. Any one going needs to know this info to recieve proper care.

It was clean, the staff was very friendly. The cafeteria is open to anyone at certain times if the day. Good food btw

I am a patient here and I love it. From the time I got here, the staff has treated me with respect and not only respect, but quite well. My room was cleaned everyday and if I ever needed something, my nurse or one of the L. V. N would be right there. I love going to therphy. The staff there would make you feel good about your self. After a long day, they always ask if everything was fine and if not, they would ask you, is there anything we can do for you to get things right. Now at all the times when food was given out, it was excellent. They were all so great. I am proud of the Dr.and other staff that took care of me. Thank them all.

Love this place everyone is so nice & attentive to your needs especially when you are trying to get better. It's very well organized with what you need to do to succeed. I am very impressed since I need to work to get back to a place where i'm self sufficient & do not need to rely on others to help me do menial tasks. This place makes me happy since I've been at different facilities where there level of effort failed to impress me.

Super sad this facility is garbage. They let patients that are not cleared check themselves out even if it is for the best interest of the patients to stay. The food is garbage and very few nurses have good bed side manner if you are choosing to let a loved one go to facility as such please take in consideration of other options

I would like to thank the staff at Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital for taking excellent care of my Mom. My Mom is regaining her health and mobility because of their amazing physical therapists. Five specific therapists work an hour each with my Mom five days a week. Your loved ones are in good hands here. The staff is professional and approachable.
