Pleasant Valley Nursing and Rehab Center receives high praise for its attentive, compassionate nursing staff and effective rehabilitation services, with many families reporting positive outcomes for their loved ones. However, there are recurring, serious concerns regarding understaffing, particularly on weekends, as well as occasional reports of poor cleanliness and inadequate communication during medical emergencies.

Key Review Excerpts
“My Mom went in strapped to a gurney and left walking out of the facility with a walker. I would say the inpatient rehab was a success?”
“The staff has been attentive. I agree he should be out of bed more but that may be his choice. Food is not to his liking. But when he had a medical emergency, they were right on it!”
“My dad who has dementia is fortunate to be looked after and cared for by fantastic staff.”
