This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 66% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. 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.
Pine Meadows Post Acute presents a polarized experience, with some families praising the rehabilitation therapy team for successful recovery outcomes, while others report severe concerns regarding neglect and hygiene. Multiple reviewers highlight significant issues with call light response times, facility cleanliness, and staffing levels.

Key Review Excerpts
“I can’t say enough about the entire staff especially the nurses for taking my concerns and fears into consideration when creating a realistic care plan and understanding our situation.”
“The absolute nastiest and most unprofessional place I have ever walked in to. An elderly resident had bruises and pressure sores ALL OVER HIS BODY.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
