    Specialty Health and Rehabilitation Center is praised by several reviewers for its cleanliness, friendly staff, and delicious food. One reviewer was impressed with the cleanliness of the facility and the amazing smell of the food. They also mentioned that the staff was very nice and that their mother had been doing well since being admitted. Another reviewer chose this facility because it had an opening and it was top of the line. They appreciated how helpful and personable the staff were, as well as their efforts to keep them informed about their loved one's progress.

    However, not all reviews were completely positive. One individual noted that while some nurses were nice, they were not always prompt in responding to patient requests. The reviewer also mentioned that the facility needed repairs on the outside and that there were instances where vomit was left uncleaned. Another reviewer shared a similar experience, stating that some staff members did not come when called and that maintenance could be improved.

    There were also negative experiences regarding the treatment of quadriplegic patients. One individual claimed that their friend's electric wheelchair was taken away as punishment, even though he relied on it for independence. They also mentioned that some staff members were rude. Another person had a similar complaint about their quadriplegic friend having his wheelchair locked up in a room.

    One reviewer spoke highly of Specialty Health and Rehabilitation Center's assistance with applying for Medicaid and described them as very nice people. However, they did mention that their mother found the food to be awful.

    The facility received mixed reviews regarding nursing care. One reviewer expressed gratitude towards the caring staff during their father-in-law's final days, while another criticized the nursing staff for being sub-par and inattentive to patients' needs.

    In terms of activities, one individual mentioned seeing bingo games and guest speakers at Specialty Health and Rehabilitation Center, but another stated that rehab patients did not have many opportunities for participation.

    Overall, opinions about Specialty Health and Rehabilitation Center were varied. Some reviewers praised the facility's cleanliness, food, and attentive staff, while others pointed out areas for improvement such as promptness in responding to patient needs and maintenance issues. It is important for families to carefully evaluate their loved one's specific needs and preferences before making a decision about nursing home care.
