What this means for your family

This facility shows a clear divide between its rehabilitation services, which are frequently praised, and its long-term care, which has significant safety concerns. If you are considering this facility, we strongly recommend visiting unannounced and specifically observing response times to call lights and the cleanliness of the rooms. Ensure you have a clear plan for medical advocacy, as multiple families reported difficulty in getting staff to address acute health changes.

Key Review Excerpts

My mom was at this facility. I must say that their rehab department was absolutely fantastic. My mom was there for 5 weeks and she made fantastic progress.

Rehab patient's family · 2023★★★★★

The nurses check in often, the therapy team keeps him motivated, and the administrative staff always keep me informed. It’s a huge relief knowing he’s in such good hands.

Long-term resident's family · 2025★★★★★

My mother was just transported there today from sentara Leigh. Her wound care was not done, she woke up from a nap and had soiled herself. She told me this at 8pm she stated that she buzzed the nurse after her nap at 6:30 so close to two hours later she was still wet.
