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 36% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 20 findings, above the PA average of 10.1. 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.
Fairview Rehab and Care Center receives highly polarized feedback, with some families praising specific staff members and recent facility improvements, while many others report severe neglect and poor hygiene. Common complaints include long response times for call bells, unsanitary conditions such as pests and odors, and significant communication breakdowns with administration. Prospective families should be aware of the stark contrast between positive experiences and reports of substandard care.

Key Review Excerpts
“The facility is older but the improvements over the years have been substantial.”
“The staff have always taken care of mom. I have seen them show true compassion for all of the residents.”
“I press the emergency button and they took so long, i had to go look for someone. I used the bathroom on the 1st floor and found it completely deplorable.”
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.

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.
