What this means for your family

Marywood offers excellent physical and occupational therapy, making it a strong candidate for short-term rehabilitation. However, families must be aware of consistent reports regarding slow response times to call lights and inconsistent nursing care. We strongly recommend visiting at irregular hours and being prepared to advocate daily for your loved one's basic hygiene and medication needs.

Key Review Excerpts

The rehab services were excellent—the therapists were patient, knowledgeable, and really helped my mom make steady progress.

Rehab patient's family · 2025★★★★★

My grandmother waited over an hour for a nurse or cna to come take her to the bathroom and no one showed. She ended up peeing herself and still sat there for another 20 mins before someone came.

Grandchild of resident · 2025☆☆☆☆

The nurses, while super busy were amazing to my mom and her needs. Granted they are super busy, but my mom never felt like they were ignoring her, and everyone was super friendly and nice.
