Dialysis comes up alongside rehab in resident experiences.
Some reviews describe rehab paired with dialysis treatment, and one notes dialysis being nearby. For families comparing options, that combination appears to be part of how people use the facility, not just general recovery care.
Multiple families report strong cleanliness and odor issues.
Several reviews describe the building as filthy, with bad smells and dirty rooms or bathrooms. A few also mention pests, dust, and carpets that seem not cleaned to their standards. Even among reviews that say staff were generally caring, cleanliness and odors are still called out as problems.
Residents and families describe delays getting help.
Some reviews say call bells or requests for basic needs took a long time, including waiting for water or pain medication. Others describe difficulty getting timely updates during emergencies, with families saying they did not receive calls back or clear information. A separate review also describes staff not documenting key changes and not following the communication expectations families set.
Food is a recurring complaint despite other positives.
A number of reviews mention dissatisfaction with meals, ranging from “undesirable” food to outright dislike. Several reviewers frame food as the main downside, even when they praise staff and overall care. One review compares the food unfavorably to an institutional setting.
