These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 63% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 15 findings, above the VA average of 14.5. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Dinwiddie Health and Rehab Center receives a high volume of positive feedback praising its cleanliness and friendly staff, with many families noting successful rehabilitation outcomes. However, there are serious, recurring allegations of neglect, including reports of call buttons being ignored, poor hygiene management, and communication failures between departments. Families should be aware of these significant discrepancies in the quality of care reported.

Key Review Excerpts
“This rehab center is dangerously negligent, allowing an 85-year-old to fall twice within 24 hours, resulting in a head injury that now requires brain surgery.”
“My mother could not stand or walk after having an episode with congestive heart failure and was there for rehab. On the 2nd day she was there I came in to find my mother had been told that she couldn't have her diaper changed until after she finished eating her lunch.”
“The staff at Dinwiddie Health and Rehab got my mom in better shape than before her injury. A top notch facility that focuses on the patient’s overall health. It’s clean and odor free not like allot of other facilities I have dealt with in the past.”
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.
