These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
Anchor Care & Rehabilitation Center has a strong overall Medicare rating. Public reviewers frequently mention: effective physical and occupational therapy programs and recent facility renovations and clean environment. Review the component ratings and current source records before deciding.
Anchor Care & Rehabilitation Center receives highly polarized feedback, with many families praising the facility's recent renovations, attentive nursing staff, and effective physical therapy programs. However, a significant number of reviewers report critical failures in basic care, including long response times for call lights, poor hygiene, and issues with medication management. Prospective families should be aware that while many report a positive recovery experience, there is a recurring pattern of complaints regarding understaffing and inconsistent quality of care.

Key Review Excerpts
“The staff was wonderful, (Andrea, Zita, Faye, Micheala, Jessica, Anise, Christy, Nadesh) to name a few. PT/OT were great as well! Encouraging and motivating and fun.”
“You press the call button and wait for over 45 minutes to get help, my longest wait time was an hour 15 minutes. The food is like something you’d feed a dog. Bugs flying all around.”
“He left this place with a massive diaper rash (bleeding down there) . His medical needs were not meet- many times he went without his midline medicine.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
