    Review

    Quiburi Nursing and Rehabilitation is widely described by visitors and residents as a place that feels welcoming, collaborative, and focused on comfort and healing. Multiple accounts highlight a strong sense of teamwork among the staff, with residents appearing engaged and content. One reviewer noted a "great team feel" where staff work together to create an environment conducive to healing, and many others echoed the sentiment that the atmosphere is friendly, warm, and family-oriented. The general impression is that the facility prioritizes connection - between staff and residents, and between the facility and visiting families.

    Several reviewers singled out individual members of the team for praise, underscoring the impression that the staff's dedication makes a meaningful difference. Names that come up repeatedly include Steve, Felicia, and Sally in the nursing staff, Dottie the Director of Nursing, and Dr. Vandervort. Visitors also praised rehabilitation professionals such as Jill, Kevin, and Miss Susie Q for their thoughtful, patient-centered approaches. The front desk and administrative staff were described as particularly welcoming and helpful, with one reviewer noting that the staff were open to feedback and keen to keep a loved one comfortable during a difficult time. The sentiment across these accounts is that personalized attention and accessible communication help families feel supported.

    The care experience for residents and patients is another frequent point of praise. A long recovery story from a visitor who had undergone neck surgery described the facility as "top notch" and the building as clean and well maintained. The rehabilitation team was portrayed as deeply committed to residents' wellness, with specific acknowledgement of how therapy and individualized care can help people regain function. Other comments emphasize attentive, timely responses to questions and needs, good medical oversight, and a sense that the care provided aims to maximize comfort and function. Food quality and general livability are also touched on positively in several accounts, with residents appearing happy and meals described as appealing, reinforcing the sense that the facility is an enjoyable place to be.

    Community and environment emerge as recurring themes in the narratives. Several reviewers highlight the pleasant, non-institutional feel of the facility, noting that it may not be the fanciest option, but it is quaint and well-suited to a smaller-town setting. The presence of family and friends is frequently cited as a strength, with visits appearing to be common and meaningful for residents. Observations about cleanliness and sanitation reinforce a positive baseline impression in many accounts, even as some reviews acknowledge that individual rooms or spaces can vary depending on the residents' needs and circumstances. Overall, the facility is described as a place where residents can feel connected, cared for, and respected.

    There are, however, dissenting experiences captured in the mix of reviews. A few reviewers describe significant concerns, ranging from unsatisfactory care to outright accusations of negligence. One negative post characterizes the facility as a "dump," with complaints about filthy carpeting and a sense that staff were not actively engaged. Another review mentions rude nurses, alleged dishonesty about the level of care, and accusations of improper reporting. There are reports of specific incidents, including failure to administer medications, neglect of daily care such as bathing, and even a severe accusation of patient dumping - being sent to another facility for evaluation without proper arrangements. Billing disputes and claims of intimidation by administration add to a sense that, for some, the experience was distressing and legally troubling. These reviews present a stark contrast to the many positive accounts and remind readers that experiences can vary widely depending on individual circumstances and personnel.

    Despite the divergent experiences, several reviewers offer a balanced perspective, acknowledging that even in highly regarded facilities, not every day is perfect. Some comment that their parents or loved ones can be difficult to manage due to preexisting conditions or behaviors, yet still recognize the quality of medical care as among the better options they've encountered. Others point out that the facility's strengths - cleanliness, relatively attentive care, and a culture of caring staff - are real, while also noting that problems can occur and should be addressed transparently and promptly. A recurring call is to assess care on an individual basis, visit personally, and have open conversations with the care team to set expectations and monitor progress.

    Taken together, the collection of experiences presents a facility that many families and residents view as a compassionate, capable place with a strong emphasis on teamwork, personal attention, and a welcoming atmosphere. The overwhelmingly positive stories highlight engaged staff, clear dedication to comfort and rehabilitation, and a community feel that supports both residents and their families. At the same time, the negative accounts serve as a caution to prospective families to conduct thorough visits, seek firsthand information, and consider a range of experiences before drawing conclusions. For those evaluating care options, Quiburi appears to offer a solid core of supportive staff, a people-first approach, and a committed rehabilitation ethos, tempered by variability in individual experiences that underscores the importance of direct, ongoing communication and observation.
