Key Review Excerpts
“My dad is here for rehab, and the care he gets is absolutely wonderful! He came in not being able to walk, and now he is walked more than 20ft and is nearly ready to come home.”
“Since then, until she passed away this year in January, she was fully supported in this facility. I highly recommend going with Seacrest; the word "TLC" (tender, love and care) is a big word but she absolutely received it here.”
“After I posted my initial review, within a few days, my aunt was not supervised, fell out of bed, hit her head on the ceramic floor and was hospitalized. She had a brain bleed.”

Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History

The facility repeatedly struggles with resident safety (preventing accidents and falls), care planning, and medication management, with multiple violations recurring throughout 2023-2025. While all cited issues show correction dates, the persistent nature of complaints about basic care standards warrants careful evaluation during any visit.
