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 98% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 11 findings, above the NY average of 7.6. 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.
Surge Rehabilitation and Nursing LLC receives highly polarized feedback, with many families praising the dedicated physical therapy team and specific staff members for their compassionate care. However, a significant number of reviewers report serious concerns regarding slow response times to call bells, poor communication, and inconsistent nursing care, particularly during off-hours or weekends.

Key Review Excerpts
“The Rehab team of Terry, Rebecca + got her up and walking again. They have a very good, structured, PT/OT program that we are so grateful for!”
“It generally took 30-45 minutes to have a response to the bell. I was told if I couldn’t wait that long for help to use bathroom I would have to wear a diaper.”
“The social worker, Ms.Garcia was not only highly knowledgable, but also genuinely compassionate, taking the time to understand and accommodate to our family members needs and goals.”
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.

Additional issues include building safety problems and resident protection concerns, with one complaint-triggered deficiency involving misuse of resident belongings in 2025.

Original nursing home datasets
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.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
