What this means for your family
While the facility offers engaging social activities and effective rehab therapy, the recurring reports of severe understaffing and slow call-bell response times are major red flags. Families should conduct a tour during a weekend or evening shift to observe actual staffing levels and ask management specifically about their protocols for fall-risk monitoring.

Key Review Excerpts
“The gentleman playing the music trivia game spoke to the individuals with kindness and respect. He was very polite and nurturing and included everyone.”
“My father's first day in the rehabilitation he called me at 1:53 said no one has come to help him to the bathroom. At 3:55 he called again over 2 hrs later since he got the call bell and no one came.”
“This place is hit or miss depending on who is working. There is no consistency with care levels day to day.”
