Recuperative Services Unit-Hebrew Rehab Center has a strong overall Medicare rating. RN hours meet the EveryPlace reference benchmark, which is one useful staffing signal to discuss during a visit. Public reviewers frequently mention: select dedicated and professional staff members and effective physical and occupational therapy teams. Review the component ratings and current source records before deciding.
This facility receives highly polarized feedback, with many families reporting severe issues regarding patient neglect, unresponsiveness, and poor communication. While some reviewers praise individual staff members for their kindness, recurring reports of delayed medication, missing personal belongings, and unsanitary conditions raise significant concerns about the quality of care.

Key Review Excerpts
“One actually locked the head of my bed so I couldn't lower it and hid my call button while I was watching. I asked her to give it to me and she said 'Stop being such an invalid and get it yourself.'”
“The CNA is rough and abusive. His legal rights are routinely violated (for instance, his right to go to bed when he wants to - he is forced to lie in bed for 12 hours a day, which causes his bed sores to grow worse).”
“Relative's personal clothing we shipped to her... gone, her jewelry... disappeared. TV and two phones... gone.”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
