Overall Review of Sloan's Lake Rehabilitation Center

differentiator 13 reviews mention this

Therapy support stands out

Physical and occupational therapy is a frequent bright spot in reviews.

Many residents describe strong results and supportive sessions with PT and OT, including getting patients moving and receiving individualized treatment. Several reviews specifically thank named therapists for helping with recovery goals and for being encouraging during rehab. A smaller set of reviewers still mention therapy time, but say it felt mismatched to their needs at times or left them needing to rehab more on their own.

caveat 12 reviews mention this

Call light response can lag

Reviews repeatedly criticize slow or missed responses to help requests.

A recurring concern is that call lights and assistance requests are not answered quickly, with some reviewers describing waits of up to an hour or longer. Others also report broader communication problems, including trouble getting follow-ups about care, supplies, or scheduling. While some residents praise staff attentiveness, these complaints appear often enough that responsiveness is a clear dividing line in the feedback.

common 7 reviews mention this

Food quality is mixed

Food gets both praise and criticism in resident reviews.

Several reviewers say the food is good and improving, and some mention ordering requests being handled when they ask. Others complain that meals are overcooked, underseasoned, or not matching care needs like diabetic or fluid restrictions. There are also complaints about not receiving ordered meals in a timely way and about dietary plans not being followed consistently.

common 8 reviews mention this

Cleanliness and views get credit

Residents frequently mention a clean facility and notable views.

Multiple reviews highlight cleanliness and bright rooms, with some also calling out modern or comfortable room features. Views—especially downtown, mountains, and lake scenery—come up in several positive accounts. A few negative reviews contrast that with concerns about room age or an outdated setup, including dissatisfaction with the size and condition of rooms.

caveat 6 reviews mention this

Care coordination is uneven

Some reviews describe poor communication during care and discharge planning.

Beyond staffing response times, several reviewers report difficulty reaching staff, slow follow-through, or missed updates for families. A few describe problems with care being handled incorrectly or not documented as expected, including medication and diet concerns. Others mention therapy plans or discharge coordination not being completed as promised, contributing to frustration for families during and after the stay.
