Select Specialty Hospital (Harrisburg, PA)

Terrible care. My father was left uncomfortable and in pain. Staff was rough with him. Doctors didn’t seem to understand how to manage him. The few staff nurses and doctors who were competent and caring can’t make up for those who didn’t care if he was suffering. Avoid if possible.

My good friend ended up in this facility. She barely survived surgery before entering this acute rehab where she was very poorly treated. So much so, she had bed sores filled with fungus and showed signs of neglect. She described rough treatment and was given food she had been told she wasn’t supposed to eat. She was placed on a potty chair and left there for a couple of hours. She is in a different place now and getting the help she needs to get back to her home. This place needs to be investigated. My friend will probably follow up with a formal complaint.

My mother has been at this hospital going on 3 weeks and The care and services are the worst I've. Experience in a long time. A male nurse that would not give his name answered the phone with "yo". When I addressed how inappropriate that was, he laughed and then hung up. Called again and he hung up again. Ashley at the front desk also hung up after I asked for the supervisor and yes at that point I was loud. However she got emotional and hung up.please don't take your love ones there.

Absolutely the worst place you can ever place a loved one. My family made the mistake of transferring my grandfather here from Hershey about a month ago due to COVID-19 and pneumonia. At first it was horrible. The room was absolutely disgusting, the nurses were horrible and not doing their jobs, and very rude and had no answers to any questions my aunt or father had. He got moved to a different area on the floor and the staff got alittle better after contacting someone higher up but it shouldn’t have taken that much to get them to do their jobs. They are nurses, they should learn to care better for their patients. My grandfather was finally removed from the hospital and into a rehab, and the rehab had to send him to the ER bc his catheter wasn’t changed or cleaned the whole month he was there and they were worried about an infection. Horrible experience.

My husband was a patient at Select Specialty for about 2-1/2 weeks. I worked in a hospital for 20 years so watched good nurses at work and I consider the nurses at Select Specialty Hospital to be the best. That said I would like to say that Sandra was an exceptional nurse. Jasmine, one of the CNA's was excellent as well. Jeff, the Resp. Therapist did a great job as well But a special shout out to Marasia, our cleaning person, who could not have done a better job. After sitting in another hospital watching the poor cleaning job they did it was refreshing to see someone so good at her job. And she was pleasant as well. Also a big thanks to Jenn, his case manager, who worked hard to get him home! I would recommend this hospital to anyone, the care was excellent!

Okay, my mother was transferred here from Hershey Hospital on Wednesday. I was able to finally able to see my mom earlier today. In the first 15 minutes with me being there, I'm having mixed feelings about this place as far as the care that will be given to my mother. The nurse walks in the room to start checking her vitals and the nurse didn't even introduce herself, no hello, how are you, nothing. It seems like the nurses have attitudes or they seem like they don't want to be there!!! It's called a job/career for a reason!!!! All I know is my mother needs to be getting the right kind of treatment to get better. This is all I want!!!

My brother ended up here for 1 month due to COVID filling all facilities that were closer. Thankfully I was able to make the 4 hour drive to witness a nurse giving my brother an injection without gloves, the hand sanitizer empty and his urine bag overfilled! No communication from doctors, no one that worked there could ever tell me what doctor managed his overall care! This was a huge setback, glad I was able to get him out!

I haven’t even had an opportunity to get to my mom yet, but I have received four phone calls within the first few hours of her even being there. They seem very caring and compassionate, and totally invested in her. I think I’m going to be happy.

My husband was at Select Harrisburg and we had a great experience. Professional staff but they made us feel like family. He says even the food was good. We would have given it a 4.5 if they had half stars.

had some issues with this place this was the worst experience of my life never again will I go here for anything. This is a horrible hospital! Absolutely deplorable patient care. I'd give them no stars if possible there was No compassion what so ever! Unbelievable how rude these nurses and dr's are..Do not ever come here..just nasty people..they piss u off as soon as u walk thru the door..contorted faces..frowns..sarcasm.. this place is better off being a morgue then it is a hospital Responding to owner yes it was the 5th floor
