No Medicare penalties on record
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. The latest standard survey recorded 23 findings, above the PA average of 10.1. 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.
Meadowcrest Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center receives highly polarized feedback, with some families praising the attentive rehab staff and recent improvements, while others report severe neglect and unsanitary conditions. Critical issues frequently cited include poor hygiene, slow call-bell response times, and unprofessional communication from nursing staff. Prospective families should be aware of the significant divide in experiences, suggesting inconsistent quality of care across different shifts or units.

Key Review Excerpts
“The entire facility reaks of urine and feces the moment you step in the door. The collection container sitting in the bathroom wasn’t rinsed and had fecal matter in it.”
“The staff here are friendly and considerate—from the aides, nurses, doctor, PT and OT therapists, office workers, housekeeping, dietary, and activities staff.”
“My 85-year-old grandmother, who has dementia, was sent to the hospital under a bed hold and was turned away at the door when she was cleared to return in 29 degree weather.”
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.
