No Medicare penalties on record
Golden Acres Living and Rehabilitation Center has a middle-range Medicare overall rating. Strengths include exceptional physical and occupational therapy teams. Some reviewers note concerns about neglect or poor hygiene in memory care (n2 unit) (mentioned by 3 reviewers). Review the health-inspection, staffing, and quality-measure components separately, then visit in person.
Families seeking rehabilitation services will find a highly-regarded therapy and PT/OT team that many reviewers credit with successful patient recoveries. However, there are serious, recurring allegations regarding the quality of care in the memory care unit, specifically concerning hygiene, medication errors, and staff responsiveness.

Key Review Excerpts
“The nursing and therapy teams are attentive, knowledgeable, and dedicated. I see staff wheeling people to therapy and the people are smiling, which says a lot.”
“My father was in need of rehabilitation services after suffering a fall that left him unable to walk. After taken a tour and speaking with everyone I felt comfortable having my father in their care.”
“They told me she could not walk and she was not going to the bathroom and they had her in diapers. She had sores on her butt.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
