Overall Review of Windsor Health And Rehabilitation Center

caveat 8 reviews mention this

Staffing and call-bell responsiveness vary

Several residents and families report missed calls, delayed responses, and short staffing.

Across multiple reviews, families describe difficulty reaching staff by phone and waiting longer than expected for help. Others mention that the in-room assistance button didn’t work, or that nurse-call responses weren’t timely. A few reviewers also connect understaffing to safety concerns like falls, choking, or needing help with basic care. Even when care is described as kind at times, these responsiveness issues are a recurring complaint.
