What this means for your family

This facility is highly regarded for its rehabilitation therapy and communication with families, making it a strong candidate for post-surgery recovery. However, given the serious reports of hygiene issues and delayed responses to call buttons, we strongly recommend visiting in person during off-hours to observe staffing levels and cleanliness firsthand.

Key Review Excerpts

The staff was very attentive and responsive to the needs of my mother -while a Rehab patient @ Heritage Hall.

Rehab patient's family · 2024★★★★★

The staff there realized family was not able to visit so they kept me updated weekly if not more often. My mom was able to recover and gain back her strength.

Long-term resident's family · 2021★★★★★

On my first trip to see her I noticed the whole 200 wing smelled of urine. After talking to my mother in law we found out she was left in urine wet clothes and bedding for hours at a time.
