What this means for your family

Shoreland is highly regarded for its effective rehab therapy team, making it a strong choice for those recovering from surgery or injury. However, families should be vigilant regarding medication management and call light response times; we recommend asking management directly about their protocols for ensuring consistent communication and timely staff response during off-hours.

Key Review Excerpts

The rehab department was top notch, the staff were very kind and the meals were good. The building was very clean.

Rehab patient · 2024★★★★★

It took MULTIPLE days to get her meds right so she was lethargic and out of it. She was there for PHYSICAL THERAPY. Now the physical, occupational and speech therapists were great, absolutely NO complaints. Other than them, nobody seemed to know what was going on... there was no internal communication

Family member of rehab patient · 2025★★☆☆☆

I have been in four rehab facilities . Shoreland is by far the best place I have been in. The food is the best I have had. The staff has been the friendly to me.
