What this means for your family

This facility is frequently praised for its high-quality physical and occupational therapy, making it a potential option for short-term rehab. However, families must be extremely cautious regarding long-term care; multiple reviewers have documented severe issues with call light response times and basic hygiene. We strongly recommend visiting during off-hours and asking specifically about nurse-to-patient ratios before admitting a loved one.

Hillcrest Millard LLC receives highly polarized reviews, with many families praising the facility's modern appearance and effective physical and occupational therapy teams. However, a significant number of reviewers report critical failures in basic nursing care, including long response times for call buttons, poor hygiene, and inconsistent medication management. Families should be aware that while the facility is often recommended for short-term rehab, long-term care and safety for those with cognitive or mobility issues are frequent points of contention.

Key Review Excerpts

Average response time to her pushing the call button was 20-30 minutes and most times my mom had to push it 3 or 4 times before it was answered.

Long-term resident's family · 2019☆☆☆☆

The staff was absolutely fantastic to my mom. If she pressed a call light, they were there almost immediately, made sure she was safe, laughed with her, genuinely seemed to care and really made it their goal too to help her be home safely.

Long-term resident's family · 2025★★★★★

My dad fell twice during his stay—one of those falls resulted in a brain bleed. There didn’t appear to be any effective systems in place to alarm.
