240 reviews on Google“Creekside Health and Rehabilitation Center receives high praise for its modern, clean, and hotel-like environment, with many families reporting positive experiences regarding therapy and general staff friendliness. However, a significant number of critical reviews highlight serious concerns regarding inconsistent nursing care, slow response times to call lights, and failures in basic hygiene and medication management. While many visitors find the facility welcoming, families should be aware of the stark contrast between the physical beauty of the building and the reported lapses in daily patient care.”

Key Review Excerpts
“The majority of the nursing staff was dismissive of her health needs to the degree that vital medication was not dispensed in a timely manner. She was frequently left sitting in excrement for hours.”
“I watched her a nurse give insulin to him while he was eating never used the glucose meter to check his sugar level same socks no bath in 3 days not feeding him correctly.”
“The staff worked with her hospice nurse to coordinate her care. The staff were respectful, caring and well trained. We could not have made it without the support of everyone at Creekside.”
