Key Review Excerpts
“As I write this Review of the River Run (Crystal Care) Rehabilitation Hospital/Nursing Facility, i feel that the Staff are top notch, and are caring and fairly Prompt of looking to the Patients in this Facility.”
“This facility is disgusting. The food in the kitchen is not rotated, no temperatures are being logged in the book. It is very unsanitary.”
“I've called several times, I've been sent to voicemails multiple times, no one seems to answer phones there on a regular basis, called to get info on a resident, still haven't heard anything back.”
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.
