The nurses are great. However they can only do what administration allows them to. Administration will look you in the face and tell you they will add things to the care plan then they never do. Bedding is not changed regularly, residents are not bathed regularly, food is atrocious, activities are extremely limited by a minuscule budget, ac breaks regularly, call lights don’t work properly, families concerns are blown off, the hallways reek of human waste. I’ve personally watched residents be blown off, heard resid…

Poor care. Understaffed. Physical therapy is next to nonexistent. Unbelievable wait time for any assistance.

I am/was a resident of this facility

After a heart attack in March 2021, I needed nursing home care and went to Crestview for rehab. I had been walking with a walker and in independent living. I have a lot of arthritis in my back, hips, knees. Physical therapy began in a week or so and I tried unsuccessfully to get out of my chair. Finally I was able to get up with help and on my feet and then began taking a few steps. I was in the hall walking bent over and the Director of Nursing said I could not walk like that ---- it's an accident waiting to …

If you love your family member you will not put them in this facility. Other than a few overworked competent CNAs there is not much else that is positive. Horrible food, short-staffed so wait times for help up to an hour, PT inconsistent, medical care not good. Management not interested in fixing problems.

We moved our elderly parent there in at the height of the pandemic, fall 2020, and ocouldn't have asked for better care than what he initially got. But, in summer 2021, the director, who had been working there for 30 years, left, and within 6 months, all the longterm managing staff (social worker, activities director, nursing director, charge nurses, even the business office manager) had *all left*, and many longterm nurses and CNAs had also left. The quality of care deteriorated rapidly. Previously we'd …

Both of my parents received outstanding care at Crestview Specialty Care! The team of caregivers gave compassionate, individualized care to both of them on separate occasions more than 5 years apart. The food was nutritious, the facility was very clean, the activities were thought provoking and most importantly, the people were kind and helpful. Any questions we had were answered quickly and competently. We would highly recommend this care center.
