Rehab progress and therapy focus
Residents and families describe therapy that supports improvement.
Some reviews connect the care plan to visible gains, such as moving from needing assistance to walking again. Others describe rehab visits where staff encourage residents to improve, and at least one review highlights therapists as a reason progress happened. A few comments are more about the process of getting a loved one into a rehab setting than the day-to-day therapy itself.

Care delays and communication issues
Some reviews report gaps in hands-on care and responsiveness.
Several critical comments raise concerns about how often staff complete specific care tasks and how responsive they are when families ask for support. One review describes a patient needing a bandage change and not receiving it as frequently as requested. Another mentions issues with call-button access and nurse behavior, while a separate comment says bathing was limited over a multi-week period.
