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 83% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 21 findings, above the MI average of 9.8. 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.
Stratford Pines Nursing and Rehabilitation Center receives polarized feedback, with many reviewers praising the facility's cleanliness and the kindness of the staff. However, significant concerns exist regarding communication, responsiveness to call lights, and the consistency of pain management and medical care. Families should be aware that while some report excellent rehab outcomes, others have experienced issues with administrative organization and staffing levels.

Key Review Excerpts
“My Mom has been at Strattord pines for almost 4 yrs now. The Nurses & CNA's have always taken great care of her and I've never had any concerns about her care that's been given.”
“My biggest concern is not being able to talk to a nurse or doctor when I’m concerned about my brother- especially after 5pm. I feel it is important to have phone access to the facility 24 hours”
“No one comes when you press the call light to use the restroom. People yelling from their rooms. Rehab consisted of 30 minutes twice a week. Food is awful. Definitely understaffed”
RN hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark. RNs handle complex medical needs and medication, so ask about coverage during your visit.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement.
