This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 48% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 8 findings, above the GA average of 6.1. 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.
The Place at Martinez receives highly polarized feedback, with many families reporting serious concerns regarding neglect, poor hygiene, and unprofessional staff behavior. While a minority of reviewers praise the rehab therapy team and individual staff members, the recurring reports of unresponsiveness, facility cleanliness issues, and inadequate patient care suggest significant systemic challenges.

Key Review Excerpts
“The nurses didn’t take care of his wounds causing this to happen. My father said they have young people working there that mistreated him for no reason.”
“There has been no PT done with her. She is like a zombie. She cannot even walk or talk anymore. So much different then what she was a week ago. There was bowel movement all over the bathroom and dried on her mattress.”
“The staff was great, but communication could be improved somewhat. It can be difficult to get them on the phone. They took great care of my family member, and kept us informed of all aspects of his care and rehabilitation.”
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.

EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
