Overall Review of Affinity Skilled Living And Rehabilitation Center
common
28 reviews mention this
Staff care comes through
Many residents and families describe staff who are attentive, respectful, and willing to help.
Across the reviews, a large share of families say the day-to-day care feels personal, with nurses and aides who are patient and responsive. People also mention support from therapy and social work staff, along with staff who update families and explain care. A smaller number of reviews disagree, describing rudeness or being rushed when help is requested, so experiences appear to vary by unit and shift.

16 reviews mention this
Rehab and therapy are a highlight
Physical and occupational therapy is a consistent bright spot in resident experiences.
Several reviews praise physical and occupational therapy as skilled, hands-on, and encouraging—often describing meaningful progress during a rehab stay. Families also describe therapy teams spending time with patients and working toward goals, even when getting to the gym is difficult. At the same time, a number of critical reviews call PT “a joke” or say safety and follow-through were lacking, so the care may depend on the specific situation and staff coverage.

Food quality is a recurring issue
Dining quality and meal temperature are frequently criticized by residents and families.
Food gets mentioned often, with recurring complaints about meals being cold, not appetizing, or not meeting nutrition expectations. Some reviews also describe delays in getting medications tied to meal routines and say people sometimes had to rely on outside food. A few residents say the food is fine or good at times, but the overall pattern in the reviews is that dining quality is inconsistent.
caveat
22 reviews mention this
Staffing and call bells draw complaints
Several reviews describe understaffing that affects timely help and daily care.
Many negative reviews point to understaffing, including unanswered call bells, long waits for assistance, and aides appearing overwhelmed—especially at night or on weekends. Some residents describe safety concerns tied to staffing, like delayed response when help is needed. There are also positive reviews saying help is prompt, but the repeated “not enough staff” message shows this is a significant concern for a portion of families.

Recreation and activities keep people engaged
Recreation programs are a frequent point of appreciation in resident life.
Multiple reviews highlight recreation and activities as a way residents stay involved, including art shows and other scheduled programs. Some families say the recreation team works across units and helps residents participate, which can make long rehab stays feel more manageable. A few critical reviews say they saw few or no activities, but overall recreation is one of the more consistently positive themes.
