I was in the hospital and I couldn't walk and landed at Mountain Top. After being here for therapy I was able to walk again. The nurses and therapy staff are wonderful.

Well above state avg (10.1)
1 complaint-triggered

Mountain Top Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center has a concerning pattern of recurring deficiencies, including a complaint-triggered investigation in July 2025 involving resident protection from abuse and neglect. The facility repeatedly struggles with care planning and assessments, resident rights communication, and fire safety systems across multiple surveys from 2023 to 2025. While all issues have correction dates, the persistence of problems in core care areas suggests ongoing quality concerns that families should investigate thoroughly.
