    Rude administration, poor resident care

    I had a very negative experience. The administration was rude - they hung up on me, kept me on long holds, and told me to call back later. Management felt stingy and unwilling to help, staff were uptight and poor quality, and I questioned the care residents receive. I do not recommend.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment: The reviews convey a strongly negative overall impression of Virgil Rehabilitation & Skilled Nursing Center, with multiple reviewers emphasizing poor interactions with both administration and clinical staff. The dominant themes are lack of courtesy and responsiveness from administrative personnel, problematic phone and front-desk handling, and broader concerns about the quality of care delivered to residents. No positive aspects or redeeming qualities are mentioned in the supplied summaries.

    Staff behavior and administration: Reviewers repeatedly describe administrative staff as rude, unhelpful, and at times abrupt. Specific complaints include callers being hung up on, long waits to be transferred, and being told to call back later — all indicating systemic phone-handling and customer service problems. An "uptight administrator" and general descriptions of stingy or unwilling-to-improve management suggest perceived problems with leadership style and priorities. These patterns point to breakdowns in basic communication protocols and frontline professionalism as experienced by callers and reviewers.

    Care quality and staff competence: Several summaries explicitly state that staff quality is "very poor" and that the "care of patients" is "questionable." While the reviews do not provide clinical details or specific incidents of medical neglect, the language used reflects serious concerns about how residents are treated and monitored. The reported negative staff responses and the overall poor impression raise red flags about consistency of care, staff training, oversight, and responsiveness to resident or family needs.

    Customer service and access: The reviews highlight concrete customer-service failures: callers being hung up on, excessive hold times or transfers, and instructions to "call back later." These issues impair access to information and assistance and contribute heavily to the negative perception. Repeated mentions of unhelpful staff/management reinforce the idea that inquiries or complaints may not be handled constructively or promptly.

    Facilities, dining, and activities: The supplied summaries contain no information about physical facilities, dining quality, activities programming, or environment. Because these areas are not mentioned, no assessment can be made from the provided reviews about amenities, cleanliness, social programming, or food services.

    Patterns and implications: The recurring complaints center on interpersonal interactions and administrative responsiveness rather than isolated incidents. Multiple reviewers emphasize the same problems — rude staff, poor phone handling, and management that appears resistant to change — suggesting these are systemic rather than one-off issues. The combination of perceived poor staff quality and administrative unresponsiveness could erode trust among residents and families, and may indicate underlying issues with staffing levels, training, supervision, or organizational culture.

    Concluding observations: From the supplied summaries, the most urgent areas for the facility to address are customer-service protocols (phone handling, transfer procedures, and caller courtesy), leadership and management approachability, and perceived clinical/staff competency. Because the reviews lack detail on facilities, dining, and activities, stakeholders should seek additional, more detailed feedback before drawing conclusions about those areas. Overall, the reviews recommend caution: prospective residents and family members may want to pursue direct, specific inquiries (including in-person visits and conversations with multiple families) to verify whether these negative patterns persist and whether the facility has taken remedial actions.

The dining room has dietitian-approved meals served restaurant-style, and the kitchen can meet a range of dietary needs. The facility says it wants every resident to feel like family and aims to help each person gain as much independence as possible, and there's a set of patient-centered practices that try to give each person personal attention, but there's no clear information about parking, outdoor amenities, or what utilities might be included.

There's no information about the facility being for sale or rent, and besides what's already mentioned, there's very little extra information available.
