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.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 64% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 14 findings, above the CT average of 12.8. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Apple Rehab Coccomo receives highly polarized feedback, with recent reviews highlighting significant concerns regarding cleanliness, staffing shortages, and poor responsiveness to call bells. While some families appreciate the compassion of individual staff members, many report systemic failures in basic care, communication, and facility maintenance.

Key Review Excerpts
“My mom is a resident at Cocomo for several years now and I can't thank the staff and the CNA's enough for the wonderful care and compassion that they have shown towards my mom.”
“Apple Cocomo cared my mom with compassion before she passed away recently. From the nursing director to, nurses and aids, all staff there are very caring, accommodating and compassionate.”
“Had to file a complaint on day 2 because after 15 to 20 minutes, no one responded to my mom's call bell. I feel bad for people who are there long term and don't have anyone to advocate for them.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
