Overall Review of Cadia Rehabilitation Capitol

caveat 3 reviews mention this

Staffing feels too thin

Several residents’ families say staffing levels limited timely care.

Some reviewers describe understaffing, including long waits for help and aides coming in briefly or delaying returns. Others report rough or unresponsive interactions, and one review says care didn’t match what was needed for rehab recovery. While a smaller set of comments praises staff, multiple families still say staffing pressures affected day-to-day attention.

caveat 4 reviews mention this

Cleaning quality is inconsistent

Reviews disagree on cleanliness, with some calling the facility dirty.

A few reviewers say the facility—especially floors and patient bathrooms—was not kept clean. In contrast, other comments describe a clean, modern, and well-kept building, and at least one family member says the facility was kept clean. Overall, cleanliness comes up both as a concern and as a point of satisfaction.

caveat 3 reviews mention this

Medication management raises alarms

Some reviewers criticize medication changes and oversedation.

Several families describe medication problems, including concerns that medications were stopped without consulting them and that a loved one was heavily sedated. One reviewer also describes a time when extra medication was believed to contribute to low sugar and a transfer to the hospital. These stories focus on how medication adjustments affected comfort, alertness, and safety.

common 3 reviews mention this

Hospitals and doctors are involved

Residents’ care sometimes quickly involved hospital transfers.

When medical issues came up, multiple reviewers describe being sent to a hospital for evaluation and then returning for continued care. One family says they were transported when a wound issue prevented progression, and another says they were sent to the hospital after a stroke before returning. A separate review also mentions an in-facility doctor and rehabilitation therapists, tying medical oversight to the rehab process.

common 5 reviews mention this

Staff treatment is sometimes praised

Many reviewers mention staff being knowledgeable and caring.

Several reviewers speak positively about staff members being helpful, respectful, and focused on residents’ goals. A few comments also highlight a team approach to therapy and say staff kept family members informed about medication-related changes. At the same time, other reviews mention nurses or aides being rude or not attentive, so the experience appears uneven across different units and situations.
