Key Review Excerpts
“My grandmother was a patient at Harbor Village a few times. Twice for rehab and then a third and last time for comfort care. She loved the staff at Harbor and they bent over backwards to make her final days comfortable and peaceful.”
“My dad fell there 3 times due to lack of attention and staffing. Nursing staff had no knowledge of my father's health or mental condition. Nor did they take the time to review his chart.”
“I found the rehab I was looking for performed by caring, knowledgeable professionals. They always explained why I was doing a certain discipline and stayed with me to guide me, while always urging me to go further.”
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.

Original nursing home datasets
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. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
