Chalet Living & Rehab presents a deeply polarized experience for residents and their families. While many reviewers praise the rehabilitation therapy team, social services, and specific staff members for their dedication, a significant number of reports highlight severe concerns regarding medical neglect, poor communication, and unsanitary facility conditions. Families should be aware of the stark contrast between the positive experiences of some rehab patients and the alarming reports of inadequate care for long-term residents.

Key Review Excerpts
“I am deeply saddened by the lack of communication between patient, nurse and doctor in order to safely administer medication. This is a huge red flag which alone should question whether or not this facility is actually legitimate.”
“My step mother is here dying of cancer, roaches are in her bed. Just called up there spoke to an African woman who calls herself Kelly, it was like pulling teeth to get a name, she took a message for Wale who she says is the manager/supervisor.”
“The therapy department is helping me alot. Activities gets 5 star! I've been to other nursing homes but it was never like being here. The staff is always helping. They really care about the residents.”
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.

Original nursing home datasets
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.
