Golden Years Nursing Center has a strong overall Medicare rating. Public reviewers frequently mention: attentive and caring nursing/therapy staff and clean, odor-free facility environment. Review the component ratings and current source records before deciding.
Golden Years Nursing Center receives highly polarized feedback, with many families praising the facility for its attentive rehab staff and clean environment, while others report serious concerns regarding neglect and poor communication. While long-term residents and rehab patients often describe the staff as caring and like family, multiple negative reviews highlight issues with bed sores, understaffing, and inadequate medical oversight. Families should be aware of this significant disparity in reported experiences when evaluating the facility.

Key Review Excerpts
“The staff here are like my family. I would not trade them for the world, this is my home away from home. The building is always clean and doesn't smell.”
“Cindy, the admissions director, is so kind, responsive, and efficient. She and the rest of the staff communicate with me regularly which is a great comfort for an out of state daughter.”
“I can’t explain the amount of times I came to see my gma and she would be soaked all hours & she ended up with a huge bed sore, quickly passing away.”
