239 reviews on Google“Harbor Point (Optalis) Dearborn Heights receives highly polarized reviews, with many families praising the admissions and concierge staff for their warmth and responsiveness. However, there is a consistent pattern of severe complaints regarding nursing care, including slow response times to call lights, medication management errors, and poor hygiene standards. While the rehabilitation therapy team is frequently cited as a major strength, the facility's reputation is heavily impacted by concerns over staffing levels and inconsistent patient care.”

Key Review Excerpts
“The physical and occupational therapist are fantastic. I am so thankful for everything they did for me. In 10 months I learned to walk again after being paralyzed from the waist down.”
“I would not send your loved one here if they have a medication regimen that if administered incorrectly can make them sicker or worse kill them! They have many on staff that say they will do something and they never do.”
“The staff at Optalis in Dearborn Heights are caring, compassionate and thorough. Very timely as well. Darlene the administrator is amazing at talking with people, calming their fears and educating families on a wide variety of concerns.”
