Buckeye Forest at Rosemount Pavilion sits at 20 Easter Drive in Portsmouth, Ohio, and offers a nursing home setting with a focus on letting residents keep their independence as much as possible, so folks find themselves in a place that blends skilled nursing care, personal care, and help with daily needs, yet encourages each person to be as self-reliant as they want. The facility has about 15 employees, and doctors, nurses, and aides provide care around the clock, so whether someone needs help recovering from an illness or injury, help with pain management, or regular therapy and rehabilitation, there's staff close by. Buckeye Forest handles many needs from discharge planning and home care support to IV therapy and wound care, even helping residents manage things like dialysis, CHF or pulmonary care, and BIPAP/CPAP, and if someone just needs short-term help, there's respite care available too. Folks can sit on the front porch in rocking chairs or spend time on the patio when the weather's nice, so it feels a bit more like home instead of an institution, and the staff tries to plan activities that suit each person's likes and abilities. The facility works with families to set up transportation for medical appointments and offers regular visits from physicians who round to check in. While Buckeye Forest is primarily about nursing and rehabilitation, there's a steady focus on personal care and the small comforts that matter, so residents can keep their routines and feel safe, supported, and respected. The facility does all this while being a public company with its main office right there in Portsmouth, so it feels local and connected to the community.

Compassionate staff amid dangerous lapses
I had a mixed, painful experience. Many staff - nurses, therapists, kitchen and aides (Tim, Ashley, Chris among them) - were compassionate, skilled, and made transitions smooth, and therapy helped; at times residents were treated like family. But I also witnessed serious lapses: ignored call lights and long waits, missed or inconsistent meds and communication, neglected hygiene/meals, restricted visitation/phone access, safety concerns and sedation/overmedication that I believe contributed to decline. Because of those dangers I can't fully recommend the facility despite pockets of excellent, caring staff.
