Overall Review of Highland Pines Rehabilitation Center

differentiator 5 reviews mention this

Physical therapy gets strong praise

Physical therapy is repeatedly described as effective and dedicated.

Several residents and families singled out rehabilitation and physical therapy as a standout part of the stay.

Social workers and coordinators are frequently praised for follow-through.

Communication and coordination show up often in the reviews, with families describing regular updates and help managing transitions.

Residents and families also describe staff helping with needs like messages, paperwork, and arranging next steps for care.

Cleanliness is a mixed picture

Residents and visitors describe strong concerns about odors and cleanliness.

Cleanliness is inconsistent across the reviews. Some describe the facility as clean, well maintained, and free of strong odors, while others report urine odors, visible mold concerns, leaking ceilings, and dirty rooms or shared bathrooms. Several negative reviews connect these issues to a lack of timely cleaning or insufficient attention to basic sanitation.

Call-light and staffing concerns recur

Some reviews describe delays and understaffing that affect day-to-day help.

Beyond general praise for care, multiple reviewers mention operational gaps that slow response times. There are recurring complaints about long call light wait times and difficulty getting help for personal care needs. A few reviews also describe the facility as short-staffed, with limited supplies or delayed medication and attention.
