    Understaffed, unsafe, dirty, inconsistent care

    I had a deeply negative experience overall. The place felt chronically understaffed, dirty (urine odor, pests), and money-focused - call bells often went unanswered, meds were missed or changed without clear charting, meals were poor, and communication from administration was complacent and dismissive. I did, however, meet exceptional caregivers and therapists (Ms. Claudette, Caitlin, Levi, several nurses and OTs/PTs) who were professional and caring. Because care and leadership are inconsistent and safety is a concern, I would not trust this facility for long-term placement and would only consider it for short rehab with extreme caution.

    About Fairview Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

    Fairview Nursing and Rehabilitation Center sits in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, offering care mainly for nursing and rehabilitation, with both short-term and long-term stays for seniors and people recovering after hospital visits. The facility holds 176 licensed beds and is run by Genesis HealthCare, under Main Pa Operations Holdings LLC, with an affiliation to Imperial Healthcare Group. Fairview's got skilled nurses and a range of health professionals who deliver around-the-clock care, and folks can receive help for things like physical, occupational, and speech therapy, as well as memory care or palliative support, and staff work closely with social workers to support both residents and families through recovery and everyday life. They provide all sorts of programs-RecoverWell focuses on getting residents back to their top level of independence; RestWell helps people get good sleep and relax in peaceful, private rooms; and residents have personalized care plans, including wellness and mental health programs, with special attention for needs like neurological conditions, orthopedic rehabilitation, and Alzheimer's care.

    People will find cozy common spaces, a clean room environment, wheelchair-accessible bathrooms, and simple environmental cues to help everyone get around. Residents sometimes wait in a hallway to be brought to their rooms, and some rooms sit up on the second floor. The culinary team prepares tasty, balanced meals that fit special diets, and staff encourage social activity by running a variety of activities, wellness programs, and community events, so folks keep engaged and connected. Short-term guests have access to specialized rehabilitation and transitional care after surgery or other hospital stays, while full-time residents get the support needed for ongoing health concerns. Specialized programs and amenities support comfort, entertainment, personal care, and safe living in a home-like and secure setting.

    Though Fairview states a commitment to high-quality care and holds accreditation from respected health groups, inspection reports have shown areas where improvement's needed; the facility's nurse staffing level stands at 3.09 nurse hours per resident per day, which is below the state average, and the nurse turnover rate is much higher at 68% compared to the state's 47%. Over time, the center's been cited for 95 deficiencies, with 9 involving infection control, including failures in infection prevention and pharmacy services like medication errors, so families may want to ask about these when touring. Still, the friendly staff work hard to make things supportive and home-like, offering services that aim to speed recovery, keep folks comfortable, and help every resident live as fully and independently as possible.
