    Excellent staff, dangerous management failures

    I had a deeply mixed experience at Le Réve. The building is beautiful and many frontline staff (nurses, CNAs, Wendy the DON, Yolanda in admissions) and the therapy/rehab team were outstanding and helped my loved one recover. However I witnessed dangerous neglect and poor management: dehydration, malnutrition, multiple falls (some leading to hospitalization), missed/soiled rooms and linens on weekends, belongings given away or disappeared, meds given without clear diagnosis, attempted theft, and little accountability from administration. Because of those safety and administration failures, I cannot recommend the facility despite excellent bedside staff.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment about Le Rêve Rehabilitation and Memory Center is mixed but polarized: many reviews strongly praise the facility, staff, and therapy outcomes, while a smaller but highly serious subset of reviews alleges neglect, safety failures, and management problems. Positive reviewers emphasize a warm, personal atmosphere with an intimate resident population, highly attentive and caring nurses and aides, and a strong memory-care approach. Therapy services (physical and occupational) are repeatedly described as effective and motivating, and several families credit the facility with measurable recovery and successful discharge outcomes. The building itself is frequently described as modern, clean, and upscale (noting it was rebuilt after a fire), with pleasant smells, well-groomed residents, and attractive dining setups that residents enjoy.

    Staff quality is the most commonly cited strength. Multiple reviews single out nursing staff, CNAs, aides, and specific employees (including the Director of Nursing Wendy and admissions staff Yolanda) for exceptional care, problem-solving, and compassionate interactions. These accounts highlight personalized attention, dignity and respect toward residents, and responsive admission and clinical teams. Rehab and therapy departments receive consistent praise for helping residents regain function; several reviewers explicitly state they would choose Le Rêve again for rehab needs.

    Despite these positive themes, there are repeated, significant safety and management concerns raised by other reviewers. Reports include dehydration, malnutrition, infected abscesses, multiple falls resulting in hospitalizations and brain hematomas, and an alleged lack of accountability after serious incidents. Some families report belongings going missing or being given away without consent, poor or delayed communication following a loved one’s fall, and medication practices that raised concerns (claims that psychiatric medications were administered without clear diagnoses). There are also alarming individual allegations such as attempted theft by a staff member and patients being left unattended or in soiled conditions.

    Operational inconsistencies appear to be a recurring pattern. Several reviewers noted weekend understaffing, reduced housekeeping on weekends, linen shortages, and gaps in room cleaning. Other critiques center on management and ownership — some reviewers describe top-notch leadership and excellent management, while others call out unprofessional behavior, management focused on revenue, high staff turnover, and lack of visible ownership presence. This suggests variability in leadership experiences and possible issues with sustaining consistent standards.

    Cleanliness and infection control receive mixed feedback: many reviewers describe the facility as clean and odor-free, yet a number of reviews explicitly allege poor sanitization and unclean conditions. Security and property safety are another area of concern for some families, who reported no visible security presence and at least one alleged theft attempt. Communication during admissions and transfers also appears inconsistent: while admissions staff are praised in several accounts, other families reported refusals to accept patients during COVID, missing paperwork like face sheets, and complications with ER transport/placement.

    In summary, Le Rêve demonstrates clear strengths in personalized, compassionate care and effective rehabilitation in many documented cases, supported by a modern facility and engaged therapy teams. However, the facility also shows a pattern of serious, though less frequent, negative incidents that include safety failures, alleged neglect, communication breakdowns, and operational lapses (notably on weekends). These polarized reports indicate that experiences can vary considerably between residents and families. Prospective residents and families should weigh both the strong positive outcomes reported and the severe negative allegations; if considering Le Rêve, it would be prudent to ask specific questions about staffing ratios (including weekend coverage), incident reporting and accountability processes, security measures, medication administration protocols, handling and tracking of personal belongings, and recent quality or inspection reports to better gauge current consistency and safety.
