Overall Review of Chesapeake Health And Rehabilitation Center

common 23 reviews mention this

Staff kindness shows up often

Residents and visitors repeatedly describe staff as kind, welcoming, and attentive.

Many reviews mention polite, friendly interactions from entry/front desk through nurses and therapy staff. Several people describe staff as attentive to updates, questions, and day-to-day needs during a stay. A common thread is that families felt supported when staff communicated and treated residents with patience and care. A few reviews, however, also describe being ignored or dealing with rude behavior, so experiences are not uniform.

caveat 14 reviews mention this

Food quality is mixed

Food quality and meal consistency come up as a recurring concern.

Some reviewers say meals were hot, appetizing, or even enjoyable, and one person notes the food was cold less often than expected. Others describe food as disgusting, cold, overcooked, or not matching what residents were scheduled for. Multiple reviews mention dietary problems, including missed meal timing and meals that did not reflect dietary restrictions. Overall, dining seems to vary from person to person and from meal to meal.

common 7 reviews mention this

Activities and recreation are strong

The activities and recreation program is frequently praised.

Reviews highlight the recreation and activities department as a standout part of the day. People describe an activities director who keeps residents engaged and recreation teams that plan interactive, resident-focused events. Some families also mention residents looking happy and enjoying what is scheduled. The positive feedback is consistent even when other parts of the stay were described as challenging.

caveat 11 reviews mention this

Cleanliness and pests divide reviews

Cleanliness and pests are a recurring issue alongside occasional praise.

A number of reviews explicitly say the facility is clean and spotless, with residents and rooms described as well kept. At the same time, several other reviews report strong odors and mention insects or rodents, along with complaints about dirty rooms. Some people also tie cleanliness concerns to hygiene and overall upkeep, while others single out housekeeping as working well. This leaves a clear split between reviewers who saw a well-maintained environment and those who experienced serious sanitation problems.

caveat 18 reviews mention this

Call response and staffing worries recur

Some residents and families report slow responses and short staffing.

Several negative reviews describe waiting too long for help, including delays with call bells and assistance with changing, feeding, or toileting. Other complaints connect those delays to low staffing and residents being left in bed for long stretches. A few reviewers specifically mention skipped or limited therapy time and difficulty coordinating care around appointments. There are also positive reviews about attentive nursing and therapy coverage, but the repeated complaints about response time and staffing create a notable caveat for prospective families.
