Medicare shows an abuse citation on record. Read the linked source details, ask the administrator what corrective action was taken, and independently verify the facility’s current status before deciding.
Families considering Silver Stream should be aware of a significant divide between highly praised rehabilitation and therapy services and serious allegations of neglect. While many reviewers laud the compassion of specific therapists and the kindness of the administrative team, multiple recent reports highlight critical issues regarding hygiene, unresponsive call bells, and inadequate staffing for basic care needs.

Original nursing home datasets
EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
