This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 25% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. 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.
Booker T. Washington Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation receives highly polarized feedback, with a significant influx of recent five-star reviews praising the staff's kindness and the facility's cleanliness. However, long-term concerns from families include reports of neglect, understaffing, and serious incidents regarding resident safety and communication. Prospective families should weigh the recent positive reports against historical allegations of poor medical oversight.

Key Review Excerpts
“I appreciate the nurses and the people who work for Booker T Washington Nursing Home. They have been so nice to me. They have helped me come a long way. When I got here I couldn't walk now I can.”
“My mother is here. They won't change her in a timely manner. They took her call light away from her at one time. Mind you she couldn't use her hands.”
“Super under staffed. Great physical therapy. Excellent in making broken promises.”
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.

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.
