Overall sentiment is mixed: reviewers consistently praise the facility's cleanliness, environment, therapy services, and friendly staff, but several significant safety and dining concerns are raised that materially affect some residents' outcomes. Positive themes include a well-kept building with a pleasant patio, large rooms and a calm layout, an active calendar of activities (bingo, bowling, arts and crafts), and available religious services such as Mass and communion. Many reviewers note proactive staff who are willing to help and regular care conferences that keep families informed, and some explicitly say they would recommend the facility.
Care quality and staff performance show a split pattern. On the positive side, multiple reviewers call out excellent nursing and rehabilitation therapy; the facility appears capable of delivering solid, effective therapy for patients who need short-term rehab. Staff are described as friendly and outgoing, and communication via care conferences is highlighted as a strength. However, several serious negative reports temper that praise: reviewers report overmedication, aide-related safety lapses, and at least one incident where a patient was dropped resulting in ICU hospitalization. Reviewers also mention medical complications including low blood sugar and lung issues linked to these safety lapses. These accounts point to inconsistency in staff competence and oversight—meaning while clinical and therapy teams may perform well overall, front-line aide care and medication management have shown lapses that can lead to severe consequences.
Facilities and programming are consistently seen as positives. The building is described as very clean and attractive, with a beautiful patio and a layout that families appreciate. Activities are varied and include secular and religious options, which reviewers value for resident engagement. Therapy offerings and the peaceful atmosphere make the community appealing for those seeking a calm, activity-rich environment and short-term rehab services.
Dining is a frequent area of concern. Reviews range from "average/ok food" to strongly negative descriptions of "horrible flavor," food that allegedly made a patient sick, and at least one report of a patient sent to the emergency room after eating. Multiple reviewers call for an overhaul of the kitchen and menu—specific suggestions include more salad variety, better bread options, and higher culinary standards (some even requested a gourmet chef). The dining feedback is inconsistent: some find it acceptable, but strong negative reports suggest that food quality is a recurring issue for some residents.
Taken together, the reviews suggest Ascension Resurrection Place can offer excellent cleanliness, a pleasant environment, strong rehab/therapy services, and an active program of activities and religious services. However, there are notable and serious concerns about medication practices, aide safety/competence, and dining quality. A clear pattern emerges: the facility can be a good match for residents who need competent rehabilitation, appreciate a calm and clean environment, and participate in activities and religious services—but families should exercise caution for residents who require higher levels of personal assistance or complex medical management. The mixed reports indicate variability in day-to-day execution, so prospective residents and families should inquire specifically about medication protocols, staffing and aide training, recent safety incidents, and kitchen oversight when evaluating the community.
