These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 36% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 12 findings, above the NJ average of 8.5. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Families should note that while recent reviews from 2026 highlight a significant positive turnaround under new leadership, the facility has a long history of severe allegations regarding rodent infestations and cleanliness. While many patients praise the effectiveness of the rehabilitation therapy, others have reported serious concerns regarding medication management and staff professionalism.

Key Review Excerpts
“The new leadership team at Sinai is doing a wonderful job! The new administrator (Yehuda) and new Director of Nursing (Hannia) obviously care very much about the residents and families, and they take the time to listen and understand.”
“I came in on a wheelchair, hardly able to move my left leg. Going into rehab therapy, weeks later, I had lotsa exercise that built up my legs and the calf muscles. I went from a wheelchair to a rollator walker to walking, now, on my own.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

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.
