Overall Review of Cherry Hill Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center

common 13 reviews mention this

Staff are friendly and attentive

Residents and families commonly describe staff as friendly and attentive to needs.

Many reviewers describe the staff as kind, caring, and responsive, including nurses, CNAs, therapists, and front-desk or administrative teams. Several comments highlight cleanliness of the facility alongside staff members who say hello, offer updates, or help residents and families feel supported. A smaller set of reviews goes the other direction, describing unresponsiveness, neglect, or poor communication, so experiences appear mixed.

caveat 14 reviews mention this

Care quality is inconsistent

Communication and care follow-through come up as major concerns in recurring reviews.

A number of negative reviews describe long waits for help, delayed or missing updates, and difficulty getting staff to respond. Several also report problems with medical management and overall support during short stays or rehab, including situations involving dehydration, malnutrition, falls, or injuries after calls for assistance. While a few reviewers report good outcomes and smooth teamwork, the overall pattern in the critiques is inconsistent responsiveness and follow-through.

common 11 reviews mention this

Rehab therapy gets mixed reviews

Therapy is frequently mentioned as a brighter spot for rehab stays.

Multiple reviewers single out rehabilitation staff—especially physical therapy and related disciplines—as helpful and professional. At the same time, several comments criticize nursing coverage and day-to-day support, which affects how positive rehab experiences come across. One reviewer also mentions difficulty with timelines for rehab therapy sessions, reinforcing that experiences vary by shift and staffing.

common 6 reviews mention this

Dining is unevenly rated

Dining is frequently discussed, with residents describing both good meals and disappointing food.

Some families report that the food is good, service is strong, or dining feels fair, including a dining room setup they view as more than a cafeteria. Other reviews call the food awful and mention issues like missed medications or baths alongside broader care concerns. The community offers restaurant-style dining and dietary supports like diabetes and special dietary restrictions, which aligns with why food tends to be a recurring topic.

caveat 8 reviews mention this

Cleanliness and smell divide reviews

Cleanliness is praised by some reviewers, but odor and hygiene concerns appear in others.

Several reviews praise the building as clean, well maintained, and pleasant to enter, including comments about no offensive smells and rooms that look organized. Other reviewers describe strong odor (including references to urine or feces smells) and hygiene issues for residents, sometimes tying that to neglect concerns. Because both views show up repeatedly, cleanliness appears to be another area where quality may vary.
