Overall Review of Hillcrest Health Care And Rehabilitation Center

differentiator 8 reviews mention this

Therapy is a strong point

Physical therapy is repeatedly described as effective for rehab progress.

Several residents and families describe noticeable gains from therapy, including regaining mobility, walking with support, and improved ability to do daily tasks. Others specifically praise the therapy department as helpful and credit it for recovery after injuries or surgeries. While reviews overall vary a lot on care quality, therapy is one area that comes up positively more often than not.

caveat 10 reviews mention this

Smells and cleanliness concerns

Multiple reviews describe persistent odor and cleanliness problems.

A recurring complaint is that the building smells strongly, with comments pointing to urine or feces odors. Several negative reviews also describe rooms or surroundings as dirty and mention residents being left in soiled clothing or diapers for extended periods. A smaller number of reviews contrast this by describing the facility as clean or residents as clean and well cared for, but the odor/cleanliness concerns appear frequently in the reviews.

caveat 12 reviews mention this

Communication is hit-or-miss

Families frequently report trouble getting updates and answering phone calls.

Many reviewers say they struggled to reach staff by phone, received hang-ups, or waited a long time for callbacks or nurse responses. Several also describe difficulty getting information about a loved one’s condition, medications, or what happened during incidents. A number of positive reviews mention prompt returns and responsive staff, but the communication complaints appear often enough to be a consistent concern.

common 18 reviews mention this

Staff kindness shows up often

Many reviewers describe staff members as kind and helpful.

Across both positive and mixed reviews, families and residents frequently mention caring behavior from nurses, CNAs, therapists, and front-desk staff. Some reviewers single out staff members by name and describe responsiveness when questions or needs come up. Even in reviews that are otherwise negative, a few people note that some staff were nice or made an effort.

caveat 7 reviews mention this

Food quality is a common issue

Meals and food quality are frequently criticized.

A number of reviews complain that food is disgusting, cold, or otherwise unappetizing, with mentions of limited choices and inconsistent availability. Some reviewers contrast this by saying meals were delicious or that their loved ones ate regularly. Overall, though, food comes up often as a dissatisfaction point.

common 5 reviews mention this

Activities help residents stay busy

Activities are mentioned as a way residents stay engaged.

Several reviews say the community keeps residents busy with activities like music and scheduled group events, and a few residents directly mention enjoying activities. Some families also describe activities as important for getting residents out of their rooms and maintaining engagement. On the negative side, a small number of reviews question whether activities are available, suggesting the experience may vary by unit or time.
