Overall Review of Sanford Health & Rehabilitation

differentiator 6 reviews mention this

Dining and snacks get praise

Dining stands out for residents describing great-tasting meals and readily available snacks.

Multiple reviews call out the quality of the food, describing it as delicious and excellent. A few residents also mention that snacks were consistently available, which helped them feel taken care of between meals. This aligns with the community offering diabetes diet and special dietary restriction support as part of dining service.

differentiator 7 reviews mention this

Therapy is described as effective

Therapy is a recurring bright spot, with residents describing real progress.

Several reviews describe rehab therapy as top notch, with therapists helping residents improve and regain mobility. Others specifically mention exercising or leaving with an assistive device after therapy, and a few families praise the therapy team for being knowledgeable and supportive. Overall, the reviews paint rehab therapy as a key part of the experience that residents and families notice.

common 5 reviews mention this

Cleanliness is a mixed but present theme

Cleanliness comes up often, with reviewers both praising and criticizing the condition of the facility.

Some residents and visitors describe the building as very clean and even mention it looks and smells clean. At the same time, other reviews report unpleasant hallway odors and mention rooms or bedding being dirty. With both positive and negative mentions, cleanliness appears to depend on the stay and circumstances described by reviewers.

caveat 4 reviews mention this

Communication and prescriptions frustrate

Communication issues show up in reviews, especially around phone access and medication delivery.

Several reviews complain about difficulty reaching staff by phone or getting timely follow-through. Others describe delays or failures in sending prescriptions after discharge, and at least one review says a planned therapy referral or appointment became hard to schedule or verify after multiple attempts. Together, these accounts suggest that families may need to be persistent to get updates and completed tasks.

caveat 10 reviews mention this

Care supervision concerns are serious

Some reviews raise serious concerns about supervision and day-to-day care.

A number of negative reviews describe incidents or outcomes tied to care supervision, including falls, bed sore issues, untreated complications, and medication or oxygen problems. Several reviewers also mention communication failures during critical moments, including not notifying family promptly or delaying needed escalation. While many other reviews are positive about care, these accounts are blunt and recurring enough that families should ask direct questions about monitoring, response times, and how care needs are tracked during short stays.
