Summit City Nursing and Rehabilitation has a strong overall Medicare rating. RN hours meet the EveryPlace reference benchmark, which is one useful staffing signal to discuss during a visit. Public reviewers frequently mention: specialized respiratory and ventilator care and effective physical and occupational therapy. Review the component ratings and current source records before deciding.
Summit City Nursing and Rehabilitation receives highly polarized feedback, with many reviewers praising the facility for its specialized respiratory and ventilator care, clean environment, and effective rehabilitation therapy. However, a significant number of negative reviews raise serious concerns regarding patient safety, neglect, and cleanliness, particularly during off-hours or weekends. Families should be aware that while many report excellent outcomes, there are recurring reports of poor communication and lapses in basic care standards.

Key Review Excerpts
“The nurses, CNA’s, Activity ladies are awesome! We feel confident about dad’s care because we know how much they care about him. The unit is always clean and smells good!”
“Their therapists - PT, OT and respiratory - made great strides with mom while maintaining her overall lung health. Audrey, mom's case manager was awesome! She kept us in the loop and was so helpful transitioning her to home.”
“This place was filthy dirty nobody knew where anybody was supposed to go blood splatter all over the furniture in the room I picked my wife up and we got out of there as fast as we could”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
