What this means for your family

While the physical therapy team is noted as a strength, the facility has a long-standing pattern of poor hygiene and unresponsive care. We strongly advise families to conduct an unannounced visit to check for cleanliness and observe how quickly staff respond to call lights before making a decision.

The Cedars at Broadwell faces significant, recurring criticism regarding cleanliness, staff responsiveness, and basic patient care. While some reviewers acknowledge the efforts of individual nursing staff and the physical therapy team, these positive notes are heavily overshadowed by reports of neglected call lights, unsanitary conditions, and unprofessional management behavior. Families should be aware of a consistent pattern of complaints spanning several years regarding the facility's inability to meet basic care standards.

Questions for Your Tour

  • 1Given the recent feedback regarding response times to call lights, what specific protocols or technology do you have in place to ensure residents receive timely assistance?
  • 2I noticed the facility has had some challenges with environmental maintenance; could you walk me through your current cleaning schedule and how you manage sanitation throughout the building?
  • 3Since the physical therapy and activity teams are often highlighted as strengths, how do you integrate those staff members into the daily care plans to ensure residents stay active and engaged?
  • 4With regard to medication management, what oversight processes are in place to ensure accuracy and prevent the types of errors that can sometimes occur in a busy clinical environment?
  • 5I see that you have responded to some online feedback; how does your leadership team use that input to improve the bedside manner and professional communication of your staff?
  • 6What is your formal process for communicating changes in a resident's health status or care plan to family members, especially during after-hours or emergency situations?

Key Review Excerpts

The CNA'S and nurses to a fantastic job. Often times they are short staffed and over worked. The physical therapy group are fabulous

Family member · 2024☆☆☆☆

As for the actual patient care, they were NOT giving him his meds as prescribed! He pointed out but was basically ignored for several days.

Relative of resident · 2025☆☆☆☆

Careless, left my grandma waiting for minutes to hours for help. Took at least 15 minutes to come back to help her off the toilet.
