Coral Reef Subacute Care Center sits right in Miami at 9869 SW 152nd Street and has been serving the area for years, with a name change from Coral Reef Nursing & Rehabilitation Center in 2021, and the place really tries to make recovery comfortable for people coming from surgery, illness, or injury, and they offer both short-term rehab and long-term support, so someone can get help whether they need a few weeks or much longer. The staff has a reputation for being compassionate, and the center has a welcoming feel, while also being part of the CareRite Centers network, which is pretty well-known in healthcare. Patients have access to a rehab gym with good equipment, where they can take part in daily programs for physical, occupational, and speech therapy, all with the goal of getting independence back as quickly as possible, and the rehab programs use new techniques and are set up to fit each patient's needs.
People staying at Coral Reef can get wound care, restorative care, hospice and palliative care, pain management, memory care for Alzheimer's, respite care, diabetes management, IV therapy, and even respiratory support, so most needs are covered here, and there are also special programs for Veterans. The place has both private and semi-private rooms, each with phone service, nurse call bells, adjustable thermostats, daily housekeeping, and laundry, and there's complimentary WiFi, cable TV, room service, snacks, in-house dining with three daily meals, and dietary options for most restrictions. There's an in-house beauty salon, magazines, books, iPads, DVDs, computer access, and a personal concierge assigned to help patients and families with communication and any needs that come up.
The overall environment has been updated recently, with renovations and expanded rehab programs, which means the facilities look and feel new, trying hard to give residents both peace and support. Safety's covered with 24-hour security, and medical care is available at all times-there are always skilled nurses on site, and registered nurse staffing has a strong four-star rating. Still, Medicare.gov gives the center a one-star overall, with a short-stay care rating of one star, long-stay care at two stars, a three-star staffing rating, and a health inspections score of one star, mainly for inspection and infection control details. The center does hold several accreditations and awards, showing their efforts toward higher standards in care, though not all reviews are perfect.
Coral Reef Subacute Care Center has expanded outpatient therapy, offers dental services, and supports both physical and emotional health through individualized care. The staff, which includes dedicated caregivers and assigned concierges, tries to make sure everyone's well looked after each day. They've organized a revitalizing and supportive setting designed for people recovering in Miami, and they keep a focus on doing what they can to help patients regain their strength and independence while they're there, though, like any place, some areas are better than others.
