Overall Review of New Carlton Rehab And Nursing Center
caveat8 reviews mention this
Cleanliness and condition get mixed
Reviews describe both clean, well-maintained areas and major odor or pest problems.
Some residents and families say the facility is clean and well maintained, with staff frequently cleaning and bathrooms staying fresh. Other reviewers describe strong urine-related odors, old and dilapidated conditions, and even pest issues like mice and roaches. Several of the negative comments also paint the building as cramped and having a disturbing overall look, including concerns about what visitors can see on different floors.

Staff care and therapy support
Many reviewers praise staff and therapy for attentive, supportive care.
Multiple reviews highlight positive day-to-day interactions, describing caring, friendly nurses and staff who follow up and provide detailed updates. Families also mention therapy progress, including a speech therapist who helped a resident relearn communication. Several reviewers say the rehab and nursing team supported short-term recovery well, and that staff remained responsive to concerns during the stay.

Supervision and care gaps raise concerns
Some families report lapses in supervision and basic care follow-through.
A few reviews describe communication breakdowns, with families saying calls and contact attempts did not lead to timely help. Others report issues such as floors going unsupervised or concern that hygiene needs were not handled appropriately. There are also comments about discharge planning, including a reviewer saying their loved one was sent home without key medical setup.
caveat3 reviews mention this
Food quality is hit-or-miss
Residents and families disagree on whether meals are good and well handled.
Some reviewers say the meals are great, well prepared, and that the dining keeps variety. Others describe the food as unrecognizable or lousy, using stronger language about meal quality. Because dietary needs are referenced in both nutrition-related review comments and the service’s meal approach, it appears the experience may depend on the resident’s situation.
caveat3 reviews mention this
Value and insurance feel prioritized
Several reviewers criticize pricing and suggest the facility prioritizes insurance revenue.
One reviewer calls the facility overpriced and underserved, arguing the level of care did not match what families pay for. Separate comments also suggest financial incentives may be driving decisions rather than patient needs, including claims that the facility focuses on insurance money. Overall, these concerns show up alongside other complaints about how care and communication are handled.
