What this means for your family
This facility is highly regarded for its physical therapy and rehabilitation programs, making it a strong candidate for post-acute recovery. However, because some former staff members have reported issues with management and staffing levels, we recommend asking specifically about current nurse-to-patient ratios and how the facility handles communication with families during busy shifts.

Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History
3-year lookback · Medicare 2026
Southlake Village has recurring issues with electrical systems safety, fire safety doors, and building maintenance that have persisted across all three annual surveys from 2023-2025, suggesting ongoing infrastructure challenges. The facility's most recent survey also identified problems with dietary services and resident rights regarding treatment decisions. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the pattern of repeated electrical and fire safety violations across multiple years raises concerns about the facility's ability to maintain basic safety standards.
