If you choose this facility, we strongly recommend conducting unannounced visits, specifically during weekends or evening hours, to verify that staffing levels and patient supervision meet your expectations.

Key Review Excerpts
“The facility is older and very large, but clean and well ran. There are so many activities and opportunities for residents to attend and interact with each other.”
“The nurses are another story. They are non-responsive to patient needs, unreachable, and not helpful at all. I have to keep track of my own medication, and ask for it when it's time.”
“My mother lived at Maria Joseph nursing and rehabilitation for 16 years and she thrived at this facility. My brother is there now and they take very good care of him.”

Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History

This facility has concerning patterns with families filing four complaints, leading to repeat violations in infection control and medication management. The most frequent problems involve medication management (appearing in five surveys), fire safety systems, and infection control (cited four times each). While all deficiencies show correction dates, the recurring nature of medication and infection control issues across multiple years suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining consistent standards.
