184 reviews on Google“Affinity Skilled Living and Rehabilitation Center presents a stark contrast in reviews, with many families praising the facility's cleanliness and the effectiveness of its physical therapy department for short-term recovery. However, a significant number of reviewers report severe neglect, chronic understaffing, and poor communication, particularly regarding long-term care and the ventilator unit. Potential families should be aware of these polarizing experiences and conduct thorough, in-person due diligence.”

Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History
3-year lookback · Medicare 2026
This facility shows recurring problems across multiple surveys, with 41 deficiencies spanning safety hazards, care planning, and fire safety systems. Most concerning are persistent issues with accident prevention (appearing in all three surveys), blocked corridors and exits, and care planning deficiencies that recur frequently. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the pattern of repeated violations in core areas like resident safety and emergency preparedness suggests ongoing operational challenges, and one family filed a complaint about inadequate treatment and care.
