    Summary of reviews

    Eger Healthcare receives a wide range of feedback. Many residents and families describe compassionate, respectful staff and say their relatives felt comfortable, supported, and at home. Families praise nursing teams, aides, social workers, therapists, admissions staff, and recreation personnel, with some specifically valuing regular updates and help navigating transitions to long-term care. Other accounts describe uneven responsiveness and basic-care support, including delays in answering call lights and concerns about attention to pain, nutrition, and personal comfort. Staffing shortages recur in feedback and appear to affect the consistency of care. A few families also raised serious concerns about clinical monitoring, medication and treatment coordination, fall prevention, and end-of-life care. One account described concerns about oxygen delivery, symptom-relief timing, documentation, and communication during a resident’s final days, and said a subsequent investigation resulted in staff discipline. These are serious individual accounts, alongside many positive experiences, and should be discussed directly with the facility when evaluating care needs.

    Rehabilitation experiences are mixed. Some residents and families praise physical and occupational therapy, describing meaningful progress and effective, demanding treatment. Others felt sessions were brief or insufficiently tailored, or questioned how therapy plans were coordinated with medical advice and a resident’s condition. Families considering rehabilitation may want to ask how goals are set, how progress is reviewed, and how concerns are escalated to the clinical team.

    Dining feedback varies: some residents describe meals as good, and one visitor praised a specific lunch, while other families found meal quality or portions unsatisfactory. The facility offers activities such as bingo, music, exercise, outings, and special events; residents and families often describe the recreation program as a strength. Religious services are available, and visitors have praised the grounds and outdoor seating. Some accounts also mention that outside food is permitted and that visiting can be flexible.

    The setting is frequently described as scenic, with landscaped grounds, trees, views, and outdoor areas. Cleanliness is praised in many accounts, though other feedback points to inconsistent room upkeep. The building is described as older or dated, with concerns about furnishings, room layouts, shared-bathroom privacy, nighttime noise, room temperature, and elevator availability. Private rooms are available, although room availability may be limited. Admissions and administrative support are often described positively, but some families report dissatisfaction with complaint follow-through or clinical communication. Overall, the reviews suggest meaningful strengths in staff relationships, activities, and the setting, alongside operational concerns—particularly staffing, response times, and consistency of care—that prospective residents and families should explore with the facility.

    About Eger Healthcare

    Eger Health Care & Rehabilitation Center sits at 140 Meisner Ave in Staten Island, and it's a nonprofit skilled nursing facility with 378 beds, where they care for people needing short-term rehab, long-term or chronic care, memory care, Huntington's Disease care, or end-of-life help, and you'll find a main building and an assisted living building spread across the grounds with a big Eger sign up on the hill and buildings that hold folks' rooms, a café, a gym, and extras like a beauty salon, barber shop, a piano lounge, meditation room, internet lounge, laundry services, security, even a playground and outdoor patios with gardens for some fresh air, and you know, there are rooms for folks to gather or enjoy a meal or relax when they want a change of scene. Eger Healthcare's been around for years under Eger Lutheran Homes and Services, following Lutheran values, offering care whether or not you can pay, and it's clear from the records that they aim for solid care because Medicare and Medicaid approved all the beds, and there's been no penalties or fines in the past three years. The center isn't in a hospital or a Continuing Care Retirement Community; it runs on its own with a board of directors, and there's a Resident Council if anyone wants to bring up concerns or talk with staff. If you look at the CMS ratings, they got 5 stars overall-same for health inspections and quality of resident care-and as of June 18, 2018, they had no violations, but staffing levels come in at 3 stars with about 48 minutes of registered nurse time per resident a day, which isn't the highest but seems to get the job done, and there's physical therapy for those who need it, averaging about 7 minutes per day per resident. People here get specialized care, especially the short-stay folks after a hospital stay who want to get back on their feet-with a re-hospitalization rate at 24.1%-and the numbers say only 1.1% got antipsychotic medication, with pressure ulcers at 0.2% and high vaccination rates for flu and pneumonia among these residents. Long-stay residents see strong scores too-five stars for their category-with 1.31 hospitalizations and 0.31 emergency room visits per 1,000 days, 1.3% falls with major injury, a pressure ulcer rate of 5.2% in high-risk residents, a urinary tract infection rate of 2.0%, and 1.0% with a catheter, which aren't zero but are better than many places, and yes, some folks do decline in movement or need more help over time (about 18.1% and 8.5%, respectively), and 4.1% report moderate or severe pain, but those numbers are tracked and reported. Nurses, aides, and therapists work together, with safety and infection protocols in place, extra PPE training, respiratory etiquette, early testing, all handled under the eye of an Infection Prevention and Control Nurse and a medical director, so they're watching out for illness. Programs at Eger focus on patient care days, and the care team pays attention to physical, mental, and emotional needs. Specialized services include home care, children and adult hospital care for those with special needs, Huntington's, memory problems, and especially end-of-life comfort, offering people and families some peace in hard times. With the amenities, services, and stable staffing, Eger Healthcare doesn't try to be anything it's not; it's a large nonprofit skilled nursing and rehab center that aims to give solid, compassionate care to seniors and people with special needs in Staten Island.
