What this means for your family

While Waterford Place offers a beautiful, hotel-like environment and strong physical therapy, the recent increase in reports regarding staff unprofessionalism and neglect is concerning. We strongly recommend that you visit in person to observe staff-to-resident interactions and ask specifically about their protocols for pain management and call-light response times during off-hours.

Key Review Excerpts

My brother who had his leg amputated less than a week before arriving there and to go all night without pain medicine because there was not a nurse that could get that to him. They also left him on a toilet over 45 minutes because not enough staff to come and help him.

Family member · 2025☆☆☆☆

I must say this is the most friendly place or hospital or rehab I have ever been. I worked in hospitals many years of my life. They were friendly to me, with each other, even the maintenance and cleaning crews were very friendly and welcoming to patients.

Rehab patient · 2025★★★★★

It was a gift from God that we found such a place. When you walk inside the facility, you would never know that you are in a nursing home. It doesn't have the smell of illness, everything is clean, and it seems more like a hotel.
