What this means for your family

St. Martha Center offers a bright, clean environment with an exceptionally helpful concierge team that can be a major asset for your loved one's transition. However, because multiple families have reported serious concerns regarding hygiene and response times during understaffed periods, we strongly recommend visiting frequently and unannounced to ensure your loved one's needs are being met consistently.

Key Review Excerpts

Becky, the concierge, was fantastic—always cheerful and quick to get what I needed. The nurses and aides were kind and came in good time, even if they were busy.

Rehab patient · 2025★★★★★

I was visiting my Mother in Law today and walked into a total mess. Her bathroom had feces on floor and all over the toilet. Mom was walking around soaking wet because she did not have any undergarment (Depends) on.

Family member · 2024★★☆☆☆

My grandma has had two health emergencies so far while staying here, and if it weren’t for her having her own phone and calling her family for help, she may not be here today!!

1deficiencies
Well below state avg (10.1)
3 complaint-triggered

This facility has concerning patterns with families filing multiple complaints that triggered inspections for nutrition and dietary issues, abuse reporting failures, and care planning problems. The most recurring issues involve care planning and treatment quality, nutrition services, and building safety violations. While most deficiencies show correction dates, one recent treatment quality violation remains without a correction plan, and the repeated nature of core care issues across multiple surveys suggests ongoing operational challenges families should carefully evaluate.
