What this means for your family
The Pines is well-regarded for its clean environment and active social calendar, making it a good fit for residents who value engagement. However, families should be proactive about monitoring care needs, as multiple reviewers have highlighted slow response times for call buttons and potential issues with room comfort. We recommend asking management specifically about their current nurse-to-patient ratios and how they handle non-emergency assistance requests.

Key Review Excerpts
“My mom Donna Kelly had pancreatic cancer & came home from tn to olean to see her sisters. Unfortunately she became very I'll & was admitted to the pines & passed there. Highly recommend this facility! Staff was sooo wonderful to her & us through this difficult time.”
“My grandmother is living here now and they take good care of her. They have events for her to attend daily, every room has a window, and there is lots of space to sit or walk outside. Everytime I visit, her room is clean. The nurses always seem very busy so you might need to be patient if you need to ask them something.”
“Not a good system for when residents need help. Once help button is pushed it takes as long as 20 minutes. If an emergency, staff would never know.”
