    Great rehab but unsafe, unclean

    I'm grateful for the excellent rehab and compassionate staff who treated us like family and helped my loved one return home. However, unsafe conditions - inaccessible call buttons, multiple falls - plus unclean rooms, poor food, minimal activities and inconsistent caregiver quality make the facility concerning despite the great rehab.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment is strongly mixed, with reviews that are sharply polarized between high praise and serious complaints. Several reviews describe positive clinical outcomes and emotionally supportive staff, especially in rehabilitation and end-of-life care contexts. At the same time, multiple reviews raise significant safety, hygiene, staffing, and programmatic concerns. The result is a pattern of inconsistent experiences where some residents and families report excellent care and positive transitions home, while others report unacceptable conditions and lapses in basic standards.

    Care quality: Reviews indicate two distinct experiences. On the positive side, reviewers specifically praised the facility for effective rehabilitation, noting that some residents recovered sufficiently to return home and that staff provided excellent, compassionate clinical care. End-of-life care was also described as humane and supportive (“easing him into his next journey”). Conversely, other reviewers reported low quality of care, citing unprofessional caregivers and descriptions of the care environment as “disgusting.” Crucially, multiple falls were reported, which points to substantive clinical and safety failures for some residents.

    Staff: Staff behavior is one of the most polarized themes. Several reviewers emphasize that staff show utmost respect, treat families like their own, and become like family to residents — language that conveys deep emotional support and personal attention. However, other reviewers explicitly describe staff as unprofessional and of poor quality. This sharp contrast suggests variability in staff performance or differences in experiences across shifts, units, or individual caregivers.

    Facilities, safety, and housekeeping: Serious facility and safety issues are raised in multiple summaries. An inaccessible call button and multiple falls are cited, indicating immediate safety risks. Housekeeping problems are also reported — rooms left uncleaned and an overall “unhealthy environment for the elderly” — which elevates concerns about infection control, dignity, and comfort. These problems, combined with safety lapses, are among the most consequential negative themes.

    Dining and activities: Dining and programming are criticized in several reviews. Food quality was called “bad” by some reviewers, and there are reports of no posted menus. Activity offerings appear to be minimal or absent for some residents: reviewers mention little to no activities, no activity calendars, and a sense that resident interests are not valued. These programmatic deficits affect quality of life and social engagement for residents.

    Management and notable patterns: The reviews reveal inconsistent performance across multiple domains — clinical outcomes, staff behavior, cleanliness, safety, dining, and activities. The coexistence of strong praise (effective rehab, compassionate staff) and severe criticism (unsafe conditions, unclean rooms, poor caregivers) suggests variability that could reflect differences in unit-level management, staffing at different times, or isolated incidents versus systemic problems. The most frequently recurring concerns are safety (falls, inaccessible call button), cleanliness, lack of activities/programming, and food quality; the most frequently recurring positives are compassionate, family-like staff and successful rehabilitation outcomes for some residents.

    Conclusion: Prospective residents and families should be aware that experiences at this facility appear highly variable. While some people report excellent, compassionate care and successful rehab outcomes, others report substantial and worrying shortcomings in safety, hygiene, staffing professionalism, dining, and activity programming. These mixed signals make on-site evaluation important: verify call-button functionality and fall-prevention protocols, inspect room cleanliness, ask about housekeeping schedules, request menus and activity calendars, and speak directly to families of current residents about their experiences. The reviews suggest potential for very good care in some instances, but also highlight several critical areas that require confirmation before making placement decisions.

    About Glenwood Nursing Home & Rehab

    Glenwood Nursing Home & Rehab sits at 615 Mountain View Rd in Glenwood, Arkansas, and has a long history of providing thoughtful, skilled nursing care with a culture that's really friendly and warm thanks to staff who go out of their way to be kind and helpful, so you'll see lots of smiles and hear cheerful greetings. This is a for-profit, dual-certified facility with 80 beds, so it accepts both Medicare and Medicaid, and offers a range of payment options, including VA contracts and private pay. Residents can choose private or semiprivate rooms and enjoy amenities like cable TV, Wi-Fi, a dining room with different food choices, a courtyard for getting outside, and even an on-site barber shop, while housekeeping, laundry, and transportation services are there to make daily life easier. The staff includes RNs, LPNs, nurse practitioners, therapists, dieticians, and a medical director who oversees care, so whatever a resident's needs are-skilled nursing, rehab, long-term care, or even short-term respite after a hospital stay-the team is ready to help.

    The community's received good attention for excellent long-term care, a string of high ratings, state inspection reports with an A grade, and both the "All-Star" Award and "Best of Senior Living" distinction, which come from strong reviews by residents and families. You'll find specialized therapy offered, like speech, physical, occupational, and respiratory therapy, including unique services like Peritoneal Dialysis and wound care for those with special health needs. Residents also have access to medical support for chronic conditions-doctor's visits, therapy, medication management, IV therapies, and help managing things like diabetes or high blood pressure, alongside hospice and geriatric care if needed, and supervised nursing care all day, every day. Outpatient skilled nursing is also available, and there's restorative care to help people get back on their feet after surgeries or injuries.

    Three chef-prepared meals each day are planned by dieticians, using good ingredients, and served in a comfortable dining area, which is especially handy for people with different tastes or dietary needs. The activity program keeps things lively and supports mental, social, physical, and emotional health with games, group discussions, music, daily events, religious services, and plenty of chances to meet others or stay as busy-or relaxed-as anyone wants to be. Glenwood's approach is to focus on each resident with individualized care plans, ensuring personal routines, safety, and comfort while providing services in a way that feels as home-like as possible, and both family and resident councils help give everyone a say in daily life and decisions. With its size-just 11 to 50 employees-you get a feeling of a tight-knit, attentive community where details matter, and residents can find both quiet space and friendly companionship when they want it.
