Overall Review of Skyline Ridge Nursing and Rehabilitation Center
common24 reviews mention this
Caring, hands-on staff stand out
Residents and families describe staff who feel attentive and compassionate.
Across the reviews, people frequently describe staff treating residents with dignity and care, including helping during rehab and following through after a hospital discharge. Many families also mention kindness and respect during dementia care and day-to-day support, and some point to communication and accommodation for loved ones. A smaller set of comments goes the other direction, citing rude behavior or management concern, and one end-of-life review describes missed requests and urgency issues.

Rehab and therapy support
Residents describe therapy that helps with rehab and returning home.
Some reviews highlight rehab as a reason they chose the community and describe positive experience with the therapy team. Several mentions tie the care to transitions—like moving someone from a hospital setting into rehab—and to treatment aimed at getting back home. One review, however, describes concerns during end-of-life care, including delays in responding to requests.
