    Kind staff, excellent food, clean

    I'm very pleased with this facility - the staff (nurses, cooks and caregivers) were kind, respectful and patient, the food was excellent, and the place was clean and well maintained. The Memorial Day picnic was fantastic and residents and families clearly enjoyed it. I highly recommend this caring, dedicated community.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment: The review summaries for Minerva Rehabilitation and Nursing Center are uniformly positive. Multiple reviewers highlight outstanding staff performance, high-quality care, and an environment that is clean and well maintained. There are recurring references to A+ ratings for staff, food, and service, and reviewers explicitly state they would recommend the facility. No negative comments or concerns are present in the supplied summaries.

    Care quality and staff: Care quality emerges as a central strength. Reviewers repeatedly describe staff as kind, respectful, patient, and dedicated, with specific call-outs to nurses and cooks receiving praise. The use of "A+" to describe staff and service emphasizes a strong, consistent perception of competent and compassionate caregiving. The language suggests staff interact well with residents and families and are perceived as going above and beyond in their duties.

    Facilities and cleanliness: The facility itself is noted as very clean and well maintained. These comments indicate effective housekeeping and upkeep, contributing to a comfortable environment for residents. Cleanliness is mentioned alongside staff quality, reinforcing a general impression of professionalism and attention to resident well-being.

    Dining and food service: Dining is another frequently mentioned positive. Reviewers use terms like "A+ food," "delicious food," and "pretty good food," and they single out cooks for praise. This suggests the facility provides meals that satisfy residents and families, which is an important aspect of daily quality of life in long-term care settings.

    Activities and family engagement: While fewer specific activities are named, the Memorial Day picnic is highlighted as a successful event with delicious food and an enjoyable atmosphere for residents and families. This indicates that the facility organizes community and family-focused activities that foster social engagement and family involvement.

    Management and implied operations: Although there are no direct comments about management or administrative processes, the consistent reports of cleanliness, well-run events, and praised staff imply effective oversight and operational management. Reviewers’ willingness to recommend the facility and their emphasis on dedication to residents and families suggest leadership that supports frontline staff and resident-centered practices.

    Notable patterns and gaps: The dominant pattern is overwhelmingly positive feedback focused on staff demeanor, care quality, cleanliness, and food. There are no reported concerns, complaints, or negative themes in the provided summaries. One limitation in the dataset is the absence of detailed critiques or specific information about clinical outcomes, room accommodations, cost, or frequency/diversity of activities beyond the single picnic mention. These gaps mean the overwhelmingly positive picture is based on a limited set of topics emphasized by reviewers.

    Conclusion: Based on the supplied reviews, Minerva Rehabilitation and Nursing Center is perceived very favorably across multiple dimensions—care, staff, facility upkeep, dining, and family engagement. Reviewers consistently commend the staff's dedication and rate service elements as A+. No negative aspects were reported in these summaries, though additional, more comprehensive reviews would be needed to assess areas not covered here (e.g., clinical metrics, long-term outcomes, or administrative processes). Overall, the available feedback paints a strong portrait of a well-run, resident-focused facility.

    About Minerva Rehabilitation and Nursing Center

    Minerva Rehabilitation and Nursing Center sits in Minerva, Ohio, as a healthcare facility with 32 certified beds, averaging about 24 residents per day, and is open all hours, every day, so families know their loved ones can always get care if something comes up. This for-profit nursing home is managed and owned by Ephram Lahasky and runs under Garden Healthcare, focusing on both short-term rehabilitation services for people moving from the hospital back home and on long-term nursing care for residents who need daily attention and help with most activities, especially those who are very frail or completely dependent on nursing staff. The team provides skilled nursing, intermediate care, memory care, and palliative care, with nurses around the clock, though the nurse turnover rate runs at 43.5%, and each resident gets an average of about 3.7 nurse hours daily, which is important to understand for anyone wanting to know how much attention people usually get here.

    The center offers a wide range of therapies-physical, occupational, and speech therapy, along with pulmonary, wound, and respiratory therapy-so people recovering from surgery, illness, or injury can often get what they need right under one roof, and they have respite care for families looking to take a break from caregiving, with a secure, comforting environment for the person staying behind. The social services staff are there to help residents and families plan for what comes next, manage changes, and get ready for hospital discharges or other major moves, and the goal is to maintain a home-like setting with personalized care plans and activities meant to keep folks engaged during the day, though it's important to know that their activities program has been cited in the past for not having enough oversight by a qualified professional, so what gets planned might not always be well directed.

    Inspections by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services have found a total of 14 deficiencies, with two related to infection control, as well as issues documenting a facility-wide resource assessment, and some problems in running the place efficiently and effectively, which are good things to be aware of when considering different care options. Even with its focus on safety, comfort, and building relationships between staff, residents, and families, Minerva Rehabilitation and Nursing Center-like any place-has strengths and ongoing areas to watch, and while it covers a lot of clinical needs and offers healthcare amenities expected for a nursing center, it's wise to look at inspection reports and talk with staff to see if their way of caring lines up with what a resident really needs.
