Overall Review of Fianna Hills Nursing & Rehab

common 6 reviews mention this

Staff are described as caring

Residents and families often describe staff as caring and responsive.

Several reviews describe staff who treat residents with respect and compassion, and families say they felt their loved ones were cared for. Some reviewers also mention ongoing communication, responsiveness to concerns, and staff working to address problems after they were raised. A few other reviews criticize administration or day-to-day follow-through, so experiences are mixed across the set.

common 3 reviews mention this

Clean facility is noted often

Multiple reviewers mention cleanliness as a positive.

Some families specifically call out that the facility felt clean, including in descriptions of the rehab experience and general condition. Others describe the atmosphere differently, including at least one review that says the building was old and dirty, which contributes to inconsistent impressions. Even with that split, cleanliness comes up repeatedly in the more positive comments.

caveat 3 reviews mention this

Food quality draws strong reactions

Food quality is a recurring point of concern.

Several reviews complain that the food was unappetizing or low quality, including descriptions of meals that did not seem fresh or healthy for residents. One family also ties food to the daily experience for both rehab and long-term residents, while another notes their loved one was well fed. Because the comments range from very negative to clearly positive, dining is not uniformly described the same way by every reviewer.

  • A cozy restaurant dining area with elegantly set tables and chairs.
caveat 5 reviews mention this

Care follow-through is inconsistent

Some reviews describe delays and missed care needs.

A recurring complaint is that call light requests and scheduled needs were not handled promptly, including at least one report of a fall that was not reported. Other reviews describe medication delays and issues with following medical orders, along with families needing to call repeatedly to get results. Staffing concerns are also mentioned, including comments about being short-staffed and the facility being understaffed in general.

caveat 3 reviews mention this

Families feel they must advocate

Reviewers repeatedly suggest staying proactive can matter.

Some families say they needed to be proactive to ensure concerns were addressed, including contacting the facility and following up with grievances. Others describe feeling that care or communication did not happen without repeated prompting, such as waiting for medication or having to call to get orders followed. Taken together, the reviews point to a pattern where advocacy influences outcomes for some residents.

caveat 2 reviews mention this

Cost is called out as high

A couple of reviews question value for the cost.

At least two reviewers mention price as a concern, including comments that the monthly cost is high and that the facility may not match expectations for what families pay. One review also frames certain problems as administrative or cost-related rather than individual staff-level issues. These critiques appear alongside other reviews that were positive about care, which helps explain the mixed overall picture.
