Overall Review of Hilltop Skilled Nursing & Rehab

differentiator 7 reviews mention this

Care teams manage meds and visits

Residents describe medication help and support getting to appointments.

Several residents and families mention that nursing teams helped with medication and made sure appointments happened on time. One review highlights transportation staff getting a loved one to doctors, while others describe staff advocating with doctors and handling care updates. There are also concerns in a few reviews about medication errors and follow-through, so it’s a theme with both strong praise and serious complaints.

common 11 reviews mention this

Therapy and wound care stand out

Rehabilitation therapy is repeatedly described as helpful.

Reviews frequently connect recovery progress to the physical and occupational therapy and, in some cases, wound care. Families mention outcomes like improved mobility after surgery and dedicated support during rehab stints. A smaller number of reviews express dissatisfaction with the amount of skilled rehab received, including claims of limited checking on an incision and missed antibiotic guidance.

Across many reviews, residents and families describe staff as friendly, professional, and attentive to day-to-day needs.

Cleanliness and odors are mixed

Cleanliness is praised by some, but criticized by others.

Some reviewers say the facility stays clean and even describe it as smelling good. Others report dirty rooms, unclean items left behind, and strong urine odors.

Dining gets both praise and complaints

Meals are often described as enjoyable, with a few exceptions.

Several reviews say the food tasted good or that meals were hot and delicious. One family also mentions extra meal support and hospitality items. However, at least one review describes the food negatively and criticizes meal quality and variety.
