Ellen Sagar Nursing Center, also called Ellen Sagar Nursing Home, sits at 1817 Jonesville Hwy. in Union, South Carolina, and belongs to the Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System, which helps connect it to many other medical services including Behavioral Health, Cancer, Heart, Hospice, and Rehabilitation through their wider system, so folks who need extra help can get it without much fuss, and you'll find they've got 113 beds in their specialized nursing home where skilled nursing care is offered around the clock, always with a doctor overseeing things along with a team made up of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nursing assistants, and restorative aides, all of them aiming to help with bathing, dressing, eating, and medicine, and tending to both short-term rehab and long-term care needs, letting people recover from an illness or injury or settle in for a longer stay, and they don't stop there, because they've got on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy, plus support for folks dealing with memory issues or higher medical needs, meaning seniors with lots of health concerns can feel safe and supported. The center encourages people to stay as independent as they can while joining in on social, educational, and recreational activities that help pass the time and keep up spirits, and the staff try to make the place feel welcoming and nurturing by mixing compassionate support with good nursing and therapy, and even though it's a nursing home, it tries to make things as home-like and comfortable as possible with modern conveniences, perks, and amenities for daily living, while the folks there are always ready to answer questions or help families plan ahead or figure out financial details since Ellen Sagar qualifies for Medicare and Medicaid. The administrator, Annette Schaper, oversees things there, and based on 23 online reviews, the place holds a 3.4 out of 5 rating, which can help give a sense of how people who've stayed or visited might see things, though personal visits can tell you more since they offer guided tours for anyone thinking about moving in or just wanting to look around and see what life there is like.

Unsafe understaffed unsanitary discriminatory facility
I had mixed feelings - some nurses and therapists gave great, grateful care, but overall the facility is unacceptable. Severe staffing shortages and poor training meant delayed baths, unresponsive caregivers, missed/untreated issues after a fall (UTI/C. diff risk), and awful communication. The building smelled of feces, I saw rats/roaches, and management was defensive; staff lied to cancel shifts and there's unequal, discriminatory treatment of employees of color. I reported the incidents and was treated unfairly - leadership needs immediate retraining, disciplinary policies, and major staffing/ownership changes. I cannot recommend this place.
