What this means for your family
This facility's strong rehab therapy team and clean environment make it a potential choice for short-term recovery. However, families should be highly cautious regarding long-term placement, especially for residents with dementia. We strongly recommend visiting during off-hours (evenings/weekends) to observe actual staffing levels and response times, as these are the most frequently cited points of failure.

Key Review Excerpts
“My dad went to Atlas apprehensively after a stay at Kessler i cannot express how grateful we are for the amazing care he received there for 3 months. They were efficient, kind and caring and i would definitely recommend this place to others.”
“The facility itself appears poorly maintained, with outdated and cheap patient room equipment and an overall lack of basic medical attention. Physical therapy was never prescribed. A simple urine analysis was never collected.”
“I am leaving Atlas today after a month of healing after open heart surgery. I can not thank these people enough for the wonderful care. Jay my aide was one of the most conscientious hard working, kind and respectful people I have met.”
