CMS Five-Star Quality Rating Awarded to MediLodge of Monroe!

"I've been here several times! I know most of the aides. I always recommend this place to people because of the care that I get when I am here. Thank you!"

When I arrived at MediLodge on Wednesday, May 12th, I was unable to walk, stand or put any weight on my right foot. I was very worried as I am a very active person. The first time I was asked to walk with a walker from my bed to the door, it was painful. My improvement has been wonderful and I am so happy. Everyone here had been great help in my recovery and I couldn't have done it without my girls. My therapy has gone very well and I am able to walk, stand and my goal was to walk out of here. I am doing just that. Thanks to everyone!

The therapy team was great. All of the nurses were friendly and right there when you needed them.

Thank you to the MediLodge of Monroe staff. The only reason why I am leaving is to be closer to my wife.    

I chose MediLodge of Monroe because my mother was here years ago and she was always pleased. The kitchen team and the rehab team really stood out to me. There was always plenty of good food and everyone was always helpful.

Medilodge, My Home Away From Home... Why I choose Medilodge for my Rehabilitation Center? Let me count the ways. First and foremost, through prayer, I was blessed to make connections with Jackie, Director in Admissions, who helped me to make the right choice to rehab at Medilodge from reconstructive hip surgery. Jackie was my guiding light for months before surgery, during the 3 weeks that I spent at Medilodge, until the day that I was discharged. Jackie was Johnny on the Spot in assisting me with my business obligations concerning copying, faxing, printing and emailing important deadline documents. Even, on the day that I was discharged, she printed out a FedEx label because I don’t have a printer at home which saved me $50 on a deadline return. I am so appreciative to Jackie for being there for me in every way. I attribute my recovery to the skilled Therapy Team who worked diligently with the Nursing Staff to ensure that my pain medication was scheduled which was vital for me to achieve maximum progress in therapy. Jen in Scheduling was so accommodating in scheduling my post surgery and dentist appointments. I send a warm shout out to the entire nursing assistants aides which are to many to name who were so compassionate and treated me like family. Chef Olivia went beyond the call of duty to personalize the meals that she and her kitchen team served to the residents. Medilodge spoiled me because the first thing that I missed when I got home was having my meals prepared and delivered to me. Thanks to JoAnn in housekeeping who helped me to finish packing and loaded my belongings on the luggage cart. Thankfully, she found clothing that I did not realize I had left on the top closet shelf. A grateful shout out to Bob the Nurses Assistant aide who found my pillow that I had brought from home and put on the luggage cart just before I left. Also, many thanks to Ericka at the front desk, who called me after I got home to inform me that I had left some mail in a drawer and that they would be forwarding it to me. I made many friends with the Country Club like atmosphere at Medilodge. For which, I am eternally grateful since Medilodge is literally going to be my home away from the house as I recover during the next year, from another hip surgery and 2 knee surgeries. In conclusion, Ephesians 2:20 says “ Glory be to God! By His mighty power that works within us, He is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope.” This promise prayer was more than answered during my exceptional recovery stay at Medilodge.
