I have been here at Shaver now for almost a month due to a motorcycle accident that broke 14 bones in my body including two broken legs. The staff are exceptional in every way and I feel blessed to have been granted this facility to recover in.
My father was transferred to Shaver10 days after his stroke. I cannot say enough about the care and concern that the staff have shown towards not just my father, but all patients. I have been there almost everyday for hours, for a week now, and I feel blessed that a place like Shaver exists. There is a culture of kindness, acceptance, and striving among all staff, and more, there's a joyfulness that is hard to find anywhere these days. When you think of the kind of help someone who has experienced a stroke needs, it is enormous, and all encompassing in so many aspects from personal hygiene to simply getting a fork to your mouth to eat. I find the professionals and staff show that they help each other out, they help patients, and they are patient with family and visitors too. I cannot say enough about HDS, and hope that other cities will use this Rehabilitation Hospital as an example of how it should be done in all cities. When there is a chance to show support for people who go above and beyond, especially in the workplace, we need to broadcast this far and wide. Please keep doing what you are doing here. If I ever have a stroke I hope that I will have the opportunity to get back on my feet here. My father's roomates are also appreciative. Kudos to HDS for exemplary support, empathy, nurturing, and a positive culture of healing.
My dear sister was in a hospice room at Hotel Dieu Shaver hospital from July 23rd to August 5th. I have nothing but praise for the care my sister received from Dr. Arvinte and the hospice staff. They were gentle and kind and they helped my family through the difficult final days of my sister's life. I am grateful for their support and for the tender care given by them to my dying sister.

GREAT PLACE!!! friendly people... have been going to my audiologist for like over 25 years.. never had a problem.
If I could rate this place any lower, I would. Except there are a few good people working there. For the most part though, my family and I found the nurses and nursing staff to be uncaring, rude people who don't really seem to care much about their patients. But they certianly make sure they all get their breaks and lunches at the same night, doesnt matter if a patient needs help! Which was what happened to my mom quite often! She would buzz the nurse for help only to quite often be told theyll be there soon then show up 20 minutes to 40 minutes later! What the hell good is that? So many more problems there but I'll save that for my formal letter that I will be sending to the higher ups at Shaver. If you have the unfortunate circumstances to have to spend time in that place all I have to say is..... GOOD LUCK!!!! Because you will certainly need it. Worst place to heal.
