2 findings in latest survey
Shaker Gardens Nursing and Rehabilitation 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: friendly and dedicated staff members and helpful transition and move-in support. Review the component ratings and current source records before deciding.
Shaker Gardens presents a stark contrast between high-praise reviews regarding staff friendliness and severe reports of medical neglect and poor facility maintenance. While some families appreciate the personalized transition support and active social atmosphere, others have reported life-threatening issues including severe dehydration, feeding tube complications, and unsanitary building conditions.

Key Review Excerpts
“My father was a patient there for about a month October thru November. He was neglected so bad. Ended up in ER 3 times in one month. Twice for a clogged feeding tube and once because he was so severely dehydrated along with other issues.”
“Floor are very very dirty . Elevator smells. Not very friendly person sitting at the front desk today Saturday afternoon.”
“I have found a great resource in their staff members Adrienne and Mckenzie. They were able to help with housing for 2 people who needed to move into an assisted living facility.”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
