The place has 95 certified beds and usually has about 62 residents a day, so it's not too packed, and it's designed so residents have some independence and support for getting around, plus the staff includes Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, Nursing Assistants, and even a Nursing Assistant in Training Program, and you'll often see Dietary Aides and Cooks keeping up meals for everyone. Monarch Healthcare Management has owned the facility since May 2015, with multiple people and groups holding ownership, such as Marc Halpert with 23 percent, Joshua Legum with 23 percent, Jeffrey Muencz at 13 percent, and direct owners like Hml Llc, Nij Llc, Spartan Healthcare Llc, Yazoma Holdings, Llc, Jeffrey Arem, Noam Jaffa, and William Stern.

Residents can get 24-hour nursing care, and the place tries to keep a secure and comfortable environment and has amenities for comfort and recovery, plus there are features that help people with mobility-good for those getting rehab after illness or injury. The center tries to work with each resident according to their doctor's orders, preferences, and goals, aiming for individualized and compassionate care, and the facility is known for helping veterans, which matters to a lot of families. Hillcrest has specialized care options, including post-acute care, rehabilitation, skilled nursing, long-term stays, and memory care, all under one roof.

People should know the inspection history though, because there are several recent reports-like an inspection from October 17, 2024, showing a deficiency where part of the nursing home wasn't free of accident hazards or had enough supervision, and that deficiency did cause actual harm though it wasn't immediate jeopardy, and a February 27, 2025 report found a deficiency serious enough to put residents' health or safety in immediate jeopardy, relating to quality of life and care. The reports also show 43 total deficiencies over time, including 9 infection-related ones that count as violations of federal standards about infection control, and the nurse turnover rate is pretty high at 54.7 percent compared to the state average, and nurse hours per resident per day are at 3.46, which is under the state average of 4.2. The facility is designed to give a secure environment, placing focus on keeping accident hazards low and matching care with what residents need and want. Amenities and services are in place to help residents stay safe and as independent as possible, although the history of deficiencies, the below-average nurse hours, and higher turnover should factor into care decisions.
