What this means for your family

The facility is highly regarded for its cleanliness and the dedication of specific staff members. However, because the majority of positive feedback is concentrated on two individuals, families should look beyond these specific names during tours to assess the overall quality of care provided by the broader nursing and administrative team.

Prairie Crossing LVG & Rehab receives high praise for its warm, home-like atmosphere and the dedicated care provided by specific staff members, particularly in dietary and nursing aid roles. While the facility is described as clean and well-maintained, the overwhelming majority of positive reviews appear to be a concentrated effort to highlight two specific employees, which limits the breadth of information available about overall facility operations.

Key Review Excerpts

Tammy Wooden is a FANTASTIC aid there. She literally goes above and beyond for her residents there. She treats them all like her own family and tries to make it feel more like a home than a facility.

Local Guide · 2022★★★★★

Best supported living facility in the area. It is up to date and well maintained. Super clean! Which is important so the residents are not falling over clutter.

Family member · 2022★★★★★

I cannot speak highly enough of this facility… Both my father-in-law and my mother-in-law have lived there on separate occasions. Although I was very appreciative to their whole team, Tammy Wooden provided extraordinary care.

Prairie Crossing has significant concerns with one complaint involving resident abuse protection in 2024, plus families have filed other reports about daily care assistance and accident prevention. The facility shows recurring problems with fire safety systems, accident prevention, and infection control across multiple surveys from 2022-2024. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the pattern of repeated issues with safety systems and the recent abuse-related complaint warrant careful consideration during any visit.
