Cedar Crest Nursing and Rehabilitation Center has a strong overall Medicare rating. RN hours meet the EveryPlace reference benchmark, which is one useful staffing signal to discuss during a visit.

Key Review Excerpts
“The PT and OT here are the best I could find out of 13 SNFs for a loved one. He has been there almost two months after 4 months in hospital at Stanford undergoing a brutal BMT stem cell transplant.”
“My mom has been at Cedar Crest since 03/03/26 for rehab post surgery. The staff have been great and mom is progressing well with rehab. Do wish the nursing staff were a little more timely when responding to patients request, but overall a great experience.”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
