Key Review Excerpts
“The physical rehabilitation area is well-organized, equipped with new, high-quality equipment, and provides a great environment for recovery.”
“The facility is clean and everyone is very helpful and friendly. And that's what's very important when it comes to long-term care for a loved one.”
“A woman needed to use the bathroom and waited for hours. There were three maybe four aides hanging out in hallway, I had to ask three times, in 45 more minutes.”
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.
