This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 84% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Holliswood Center for Rehabilitation and Healthcare receives a high volume of positive reviews praising the attentive nursing staff, professional administrative team, and effective rehabilitation services. However, a recurring subset of critical reviews highlights serious concerns regarding patient neglect, poor communication, and unappealing food quality. Families should be aware of these polarized experiences when considering this facility for long-term or rehabilitative care.

Key Review Excerpts
“My father has been a resident of Holliswood Rehabilitation Center for the past 4 years. On numerous visits I have interacted with various staff members who were all helpful. However, Ms. Tiffany James stands out due to her personality, commitment to patient care and willingness to go the extra mile.”
“I visit my father a few times a week. I show up at all different times and my father always appears to be clean and well taken care of. The staff is always attentive and kind.”
“My mother was in this nursing home for six weeks. Please never put your love ones here. The food is nasty. Ms. Lewis is the best Certified Nursing Assistant there. The workers at the front desk are very good and caring. My mother made no progress here. She got worse.”
RN hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark. RNs handle complex medical needs and medication, so ask about coverage during your visit.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

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.
