Kindred Hospital Northwest Indiana

This was a good hospital stay. And the nursing staff, well, they were good too! I give them a THUMBS UP! more

The nursing care that was around me was very good. It’s not always that way but all the people I had taking care of me were outstanding. Some people are just here for a job and some staff could have better manners but I had some very good care here. I can think of one exceptional employee right now. That would be Michael. Always pleasant, never complains. Wonderful care! more

The wound care crew was good. Actually, the rest of the staff was good too. They were compassionate and caring. And the doctors took the time to explain my medical issues to me. more

The staff was here to help me and that is exactly what they did. They were all very nice. more

I am very happy with the care I have received here. Everyone has been very good. I can’t just pick a couple of names out of all the people that took care of me and say they specifically were wonderful when in truth, they were all very, very good. I felt better and better with each treatment. Someone just stopped by and said I looked really good today. I told her that was because I felt so good! And so happy! Tracy J. more

The nurses were all good except for maybe one. The respiratory people were all very good. more

Everybody was nice here. When I put the light on, they came to my room fast, not like some other places. The wound nurse was good and Hilda was really nice to me. more

My nurses have been good here. The respiratory therapists are good too. They all keep fixing my oxygen tubing after I move it off my face. They keep putting it back to where it’s supposed to be. They are all really nice and this is a good place to be. more

The nurses and also the respiratory therapists were really nice to me here. And my room was always clean! more

My care here was good! I had no problems here at all. Everyone treated me really well but I do have a few favorites. Rebecca comes immediately to mind. My wife really liked Rebecca too. And Sherry from wound care. She was pretty cool. I really liked her. I was happy with everyone here though. They were all good. more

There are angels here. I was pretty sick and weak when I first got here. I didn’t even have the strength to turn over in bed by myself but I can now. I have gotten stronger and more independent with the help of my therapists from the Rehab department. They motivate me — make me want to get up and move. And my wound care nurse, she told me my wound is doing great because I am succeeding in keeping off of it. I would recommend this hospital. I would come back here if I needed to. The care was good. And this is where I found my angels! Ms Witherspoon more

My stay here at Kindred was pleasant. The care here was pleasant too. Every staff member was special to me. I can’t remember all their names but I miss them already and I haven’t even left yet! I am scheduled to leave today for the next step and then home. Yes, I must say my stay was pleasant here. Mark H more

This is one of the best facilities I’ve ever been in. Everyone is really friendly when they speak to you. The nurses and the aides are great here. The doctors are great too. You can understand them. Everyone is friendly when they speak to you. And I feel so much better! more

Physical and occupational therapy were very good here. Nursing was also very good. They were always around and always treated me with respect. They have some very good workers here but I can’t remember all their names. The food was good too! more

Basically I enjoyed my stay here. The people were nice. The care I received was good. The therapists were a tremendous help. The nurses went above and beyond. Especially nice was a nurse with white hair on the night shift who was very polite. For example, she would ask me every time if it was okay if she took my blood pressure. She always asked me if it was okay if she did what she needed to do. I wasn’t used to that. I thought that was really nice. Made me feel really comfortable. more

I really don’t know if I could have gotten this much better if I went anywhere else. I didn’t even know this place was here. I was very impressed with the amount of care and the attention to detail that I was given here. This has been an ordeal but I’d rather have the ordeal here than anywhere else. more

I feel like I have found a whole lot of new friends! Angels with wings! I don’t think I have seen anyone here who did not have a smile on their face. I know they are short on staffing sometimes but that is the way of the world these days. But I can still hear them calling out to each other in the hallway as they help each other out. It is amazing, just amazing. And I couldn’t have picked a better place. The food is great here. The french toast is something to die for - Don’t take it off the menu! Pure gold just the way it is. I liked the veggies. They are prepared just fine, not over cooked and taste surprisingly fresh. The meals are excellent and they have so many choices. Even the staff who bring in the meal trays are just fantastic. I feel so much better now. I was very impressed with the nurses here. They were very knowledgeable. I was impressed to see my doctor come to see me every day. I had so many good experiences here. I worked with the therapists and am so happy I did. I can see how well I am doing and am encouraged to keep doing more and more. Everyone here treated me like a friend and when people do that, it lifts your heart. Smiles make a difference too. The sun looks a whole lot brighter now. I can not recommend this place enough. Ginny more

My stay here was really good. It benefited me to come here. I have gotten better and stronger with the care and therapy I received. I remember when I was at Ingalls, I was so tired, so weak. Now, I am doing so well after being transferred here, that I can handle walking on the unit and going up a flight of stairs. Yes, I have definitely benefited in coming here! The nurses were good. Always responded to my requests and answered my questions. No problems with them. Being here at Kindred helped me out at a time when I was seriously ill and got my health to a much better place so I can go home. more

Housekeeping is in my room every day. They are friendly as they clean my room and remove the trash bag. Actually, all the services are good here. When they say they are going to be here, they really are here! They motivated me so much that they were able to get me off the vent! more

The people here are excellent! I see them go out of their way for me all the time. They even go and get me a snack at night because they know I need to take my medication with food. Danny from respiratory is great! I would take 10 of him, if I could. He is that good. The nurses are great too! They explain what every medication is. If they don’t know the answer to my questions, they know who does and will let me know how to reach them. I would take some of the nurses home with me too!! Kia - she just makes my day. Between her and Tiffany, they calm me down; make me laugh.flag | December 30, more
