Southern Indiana Rehabilitation Hospital

Southern Indiana Rehab cannot be reviewed as 1 facility as there are 3 within its walls. My review is about the sub acute, or nursing home licensed section. It was sometimes called the progressive unit. It's where joint replacement patients are sent. The care was awful. Immediately after a total knee replacement I was not scheduled for rehab for 4 days. I was so troubled by it that I insisted on it and got 1 short session two different days. The room was not clean, the sheets weren't changed, and I waited up to an hour for my calls to be answered. Even pain medications were often not administered on time, and assistance to go to the bathroom was delayed.Once, the person on call left to go home before sending someone to my room. A neighboring patient was loud and argumentative with visitors and his door was never closed. Of lesser importance was the bad food. One positive was the nurses and aides who came to my room. They were very nice. I would never send anyone here after joint replacement.

I have never heard anything from CEO, or a nurse or spoke person? They told my mother and sister who picked me up I was rude? I was staying in Boonville, IN. for 3 months, my care givers after major brain surgery, I was told to stay at UOFL hospital for 6 days and surgery would be 6 hours, surgery was 11 hours, I stayed there 14 days. I was transferred to Southern Indiana Rehab. The doctor who did my surgery told me.. YOU had major brain surgery, THATS what happens what you been through. southern Indiana rehab never call me back? I reported this hospital. When I got out of southern rehab they wanted me to come back for PT SPEECH THERAPY, I went to care givers in Boonville, IN. for 3 months of recover. I went to St. Vincent hospital for PT and Speech therapy. I cried there, but I was not RUDE as SOUTHERN REHAB TOLD MY FAMILY. I did well no complaints At ST. VINCENT HOSPITAL. A nurse at Southern REHAB DID NOT WANT TO GIVE ME A HUG GOODBYE. I wish I remember her name, short brown hair, she took me to a kitchen to work me, she had me bounce a exercise ball and take sticky notes off the walls in both sides. First thing she did for me was wash my hair, my hair was full of blood, my major brain surgery, I seen the metal on the toilet move across the bathroom floor At SOUTHERN REHAB. I WILL NEVER RETURN TO SOUTHERN REHAB. I have not heard anything back from CEO.

My parent was hospitalized here for a couple of weeks and it was a terrible experience. Days on end without PT or a physician rounding. Very nonchalant about plummeting BP. When I spoke to the nurse one evening, she literally walked away from me. The food was terrible and my parent barely ate, further contributing to weight/muscle loss. Unfortunately, this was the second bad experience within a year. The first experience was outpatient and my kid is probably now in a position where he/she can never recover function.

My dad spent two weeks in this facility for a TBI. We were worried based on some other reviews since we wanted nothing short of the best care for him. Southern Indiana Rehab has one of the most amazing facilities. The physical therapy area is huge with so many options of different obstacles, an apartment so the patients can learn how to function independently again, and the technology is great as well. Of course no one wants to see their loved one go through anything like this but I promise you are in great hands here. All the way down to the ladies that deliver their meals. They come in the room and have a smile on their face and a short convo with the patient. It’s the small things!! The nurses and case manager were my favorite! My dad is only 55 and this was the hardest thing he has ever had to do but he was given a second chance at life because of Southern Indiana Rehab!!!

I've had two good experiences here. My brother had pneumonia back in December and was there a couple weeks. He did really well and the staff and facility was very nice. My daughter had to go there last year after a shoulder injury and she enjoyed her experience as well and liked the therapists.
