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 77% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 17 findings, above the OR average of 10.4. 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.
Avamere Rehabilitation of Coos Bay receives highly polarized feedback, with recent reviews highlighting both dedicated therapy teams and significant concerns regarding responsiveness. While some families praise the facility for its clean environment and friendly staff, others report serious issues with call light response times, medication delays, and inconsistent care standards.

Key Review Excerpts
“Hit it and then sometimes 30 minutes later someone comes in. I ask for meds and then it might be another 45 minutes to an hour before I get them.”
“The therapy team is amazing, the nurses and CNAs are loving and provide top notch care. If a person is looking for quality, loving care in a fun yet professional environment this is the place.”
“Room not kept clean, equipment old and not functioning properly, rehabilitation services lacking. Some night staff were mean and seamingly uncaring.”
RN hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark. RNs handle complex medical needs and medication, so ask about coverage during your visit.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
