What this means for your family

This facility is highly regarded for its long-term care and clean environment, but families should be aware of potential gaps in weekend rehabilitation and responsiveness to basic needs. I recommend scheduling a tour during a weekend or evening shift to observe staffing levels and response times firsthand.

Questions for Your Tour

  • 1I noticed your team is very active in responding to online feedback; how do you use that family input to improve the daily experience for residents?
  • 2With the facility having a 3-star staffing rating, what steps are you taking to ensure residents receive timely assistance when they press their call buttons?

  • 5What is your protocol for handling medical emergencies or sudden changes in health, especially during evening or weekend hours?
  • 6Could you walk me through a typical day for a resident here, and how you tailor those activities to help them feel at home?

Key Review Excerpts

The nursing team goes above and beyond to provide compassionate care, and the therapy staff is top-notch—always encouraging and helping residents regain their strength

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

CHR has a clean facility with an upbeat staff that interacts with the residents regularly and nurse's constantly check on the residents to meet their needs.

Visitor · 2025★★★★★

My mom is currently there and I am having mixed ratings. On some hand she is getting the help with rehab . But in basic care not so much. She can't go to the rest room herself and is dependent on someone to help her to the restroom.

Both RN and total nursing hours are below national benchmarks. This can mean less clinical attention per resident, so ask about their staffing plan.

This facility has had families file complaint reports, including one in 2024 regarding medication errors. The most recurring issues involve medication management and fire safety systems, with deficiencies found across multiple surveys from 2018 to 2024. While the facility has corrected past violations including problems with resident privacy and infection control, the recent complaint-triggered medication error suggests ongoing care quality concerns that families should discuss during their visit.
