Ballard Rehabilitation Hospital's Online Review Report Card

My boyfriend had a traumatic brain injury after crashing his dirtbike and after the hospital he was moved here. I can't begin to describe how amazing this place is. The staff is super friendly and kind. They worked with my boyfriend several times a day in physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. They we're always welcoming and understanding. I would HIGHLY recommend this facility to anyone with a family member in need of physical rehabilitation. Thank you to all the doctors, nurses, therapists and staff who took such good care of my boyfriend ❤

Please avoid this place at all cost let me start by stating this place is unsafe for the patients the rooms are really hot nurses do NOT wear there protective gear to enter the room i spoke with kevin Burkin in regards of the ac issue and right away gave me a nasty attitude. The nurses are really unprofessional and rude specially lyn they all have a nasty attitude so if you really love your family member please look somewhere els. I will definitely be calling the medical board first thing in the morning this place need to be investigated.

I really appreciate the services provided to me here by the entire nursing and therapist staff. They’re very attentive, caring, and professional. Everyone here made sure I was taken well care of. I really enjoyed the meals that were given to me as well. They were always carefully planned out ahead of time by the nutrition department. They also have a well equipped gym facility for patient use. But the part I really admire most is their occupational and physical therapist staff. They’re very passionate about what they do for a living and dedicated to meeting their patients’ individual needs. I can’t thank them enough for my rehabilitation. It has been quite the recovery process since my surgery. But I’m very grateful to have gotten this far on my journey.

So I have been here almost 2 weeks I am getting discharged tomorrow. My experience here at Ballard rehabilitation Hospital has been very uplifting. I use the word uplifting because I was involved in a motorcycle accident I’ve broke my pelvis and two places broke my left arm in three places and majorly fractured my right hand. I was ejected off my motorcycle distance to 50 feet so I’m not supposed to be alive. Needless to say I was already in the hospital for almost a month prior to coming to Ballard, so my spirits were not the highest at that time. I got here on a Saturday by Monday morning I was telling the nursing staff that I want to have my outpatient rehab at this facility. That’s because the nursing staff Are very respectful and you can tell they really care about your recovery and your safety and that they really love what they do. A few hours later I was having my first session of rehab and ever since the first session every session that I have had, has been very rewarding. The rehab staff also known as therapy staff are very experienced and knowledgeable of what they are doing and they A very respectful. The only complaint I have is with the Wi-Fi. I definitely recommend anyone who needs rehab to come to Ballard.

This is the second time I have been through rehabilitation for stroke. Ballard hospital was wonderful. When I came here I didn't think I would ever walk again and was ready to give up. I spent two weeks here and my experience was great. The Occupational and Physical therapy that I received was top notch. They pushed me when I was ready to give up. I am happy to say that I would highly recommend this place. The nursing staff was attentive to my needs. The only complaint I have is that they need a better system for ordering your meals. 75 % of my time there the call would come while I was at therapy and I would get what ever they chose. I would suggest that they either sent menu choices or called the evening before. Other then that I had a great experience here.

This place was terrible when it comes down to the nursing, I fell of the bed the first day I was there, they are unorganized, especially when discharging a patient... you will not be prepared for any home care you will need unless you pressure them to provide the help by letting you know who to call and the contact information, nor will you have your outpatient facility ready to avoid having laps in your therapy. You would wait upon hours after asking for nurse care or any kind of help. There physical and occupational therapy is amazing and work hard with you to get the best results. But it is all down hill from there and really stressful. They will send you home with no equipment if you don’t speak up, freeing your bed for the next patient seems to take priority.

On behalf of my father Ricardo Mejia, I am writing this review, we are beyond pleased with this facilities care and knowledge. I am beyond impressed with my father‘s progress due to an unforeseen Stroke that left my father paralyzed on his left side. We understand that each case is different but due to the stuff’s support and attentive care my father is now able to walk with cane assistance only and is able to complete normal life activities due to the wonderful & kind training of the staff.My father has been at this facility for two weeks in patient care and will continue to do outpatient physical therapy for another couple of months at Ballard.We would like to especially thank a few individuals in particular but definitely not limited to all of the amazing workers here.Patricia RNEmily PT PHYSICAL THERAPISTSEAN CASE MANAGERJESIE night RNThank you from the bottom of our hearts!Ricardo Mejia& Stephany Mejia

I cannot speak any higher of Ballard Rehab! My wife was here for a month following a severe Ischemic stroke which left her unable to talk and her right side almost useless. We were treated with dignity and respect by EVERY single employee from Ray and Gary with security, Danielle, Natalie and the other young lady in reception, ALL of the nurses ( God bless all of you ladies! Yall were so completely awesome and kind! Thank you!) The PT team is EXCELLENT! Very knowledgeable and open to use new methods which totally impressed me! Speech Therapist is using new methods that I just read about a week before that is state of the art! That just blew me away that she was already on it! I knew right then that the other therapists were on their games as well! Sean and Eva in case management ( Yall thought of things that I didn't and yall really looked out for our best interest!) all the way to Dr. Saluja! ( Doc, you said that yall were interested in the patients health and well being and yalls' goal was to get them better and back home to their family... Sir, you truly meant that! Thank you for your integrity and your heart! You are a great man!) Im telling you that these professionals at Ballard are the real deal! I'm so very glad that we were referred here because what they said they were going to do is exactly what they did! No lies, no false information, no games, no disrespect, no miscommunication! Very clean, no soiled linen closet smell! Very clean! Very clean! Very Clean! This review is the least that I can do! Thank you from the bottom of my heart guys! I mean that!
