Harlem Ctr for Nursing and Rehabilitation, L L C has a middle-range Medicare overall rating. Strengths include highly effective physical therapy department. Some reviewers note concerns about chronic understaffing leading to slow response times (mentioned by 5 reviewers).

However, families should be aware of significant, recurring reports regarding understaffing, inconsistent nursing care, and concerns about the quality and variety of the food.

Key Review Excerpts
“The facility was clean and the staff was extremely kind, friendly and professional. I would like to give a special recognition to the entire Physical Therapy team for the hard work and dedication they put into getting me motivated and mobile.”
“Most of the nurses are fabulous but the CNAS are horrible you have to lay in bed and keep ringing your bell for help...and it's so sad the CNAS AT midnight are great one lady or I should say 3 so helpful and kind.”
“My mom just entered this facility less than a week ago and already stolen her belongings. They smile in your face. Don't trust them. Believe their intentions are to take your things.”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
