No Medicare penalties on record
Lighthouse Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center has a middle-range Medicare overall rating. Strengths include compassionate and attentive nursing staff. Some reviewers note concerns about neglect and hygiene issues, specifically residents left soiled for extended periods (mentioned by 11 reviewers). Review the health-inspection, staffing, and quality-measure components separately, then visit in person.
Lighthouse Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center receives highly polarized reviews, with many families praising the compassionate nursing and therapy staff, while others report severe, recurring incidents of neglect. While some visitors highlight a clean, welcoming environment and effective rehab programs, numerous reports of residents being left soiled, ignored call bells, and poor communication suggest inconsistent care quality. Families should be aware that experiences appear to vary significantly depending on the specific floor and staff shift.

Key Review Excerpts
“The staff here are truly remarkable, going above and beyond to ensure the comfort and well-being of every resident. The facility itself is impeccably clean and inviting, with a serene atmosphere that immediately puts both residents and visitors at ease.”
“Staff on the third floor dementia unit are wonderful. They are so good with all their patients. They have activities for them everyday to keep them busy. All rooms and common areas are kept very clean.”
“The response time to the call button in my room was frequently 30 to 45 minutes and sometimes as long as an hour before it was answered. This did not make me feel very safe.”
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.
