These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
1 finding in latest survey
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 14% 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.
Legacy Transitional Care & Rehabilitation receives highly polarized feedback, with many families reporting severe neglect, unsanitary conditions, and pest infestations. While some residents and staff report positive experiences with rehabilitation and care, a significant number of reviewers describe a facility that is understaffed, unresponsive to patient needs, and poorly managed.

Key Review Excerpts
“I found out the hospital Grady placed my dad at this location he had a big knot over his eye, diaper was full, no AC , it smells really bad , open pee container on the roll out food tray table in the room, bugs flying around.”
“The rehab team is the bomb. The people are like family. The activities are awesome, they keep them so busy. Everyone is pretty nice, if we have a concern I always feel heard.”
“The staff is very friendly and amazing BUT the only problem I have is when you are in rehab and you push the button for help, nobody comes for at least 2 hours or more.”
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.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
