Staff are very helpful and good at their jobs but the food needs improvement, looks rushed and over cooked.

My husband was given excellent service during his short term stay for rehab. The rooms are large and private...only one person per room which makes it more like being at home. The facility is clean and the hallways always smell fresh and clean. The lounge areas are quiet if you prefer to have a space to just hang out. The daily newsletter is a plus to keep you informed. I can't say enough positive things about this facility. A great place to go to be rehabilitated.

5 stars for the physical therapy/occupational therapy. Got there and couldn't walk at all. I'm home now and walking with a walker. Getting in and out of bed, dressing and personal care myself. Thank you to all the pt/ot staff. I think I had most of the therapists at one time or the other. Yvonne, Mozsratt (sorry for the misspelling), Kenny, Paul, Morgan, Abby, Jeff for his great chats and everyone else on their staff.

My experience with Atlantic View and Post Acute Care facility has been outstanding. From the first day I walked in unannounced in May of 2026, the Admissions Director Idena Flipping, sat and talked with me about my mother then happily took me on an unscheduled tour of the facility. She has continued her professional and compassionate character. Visiting my mother daily, keeping me informed of how my mother is doing and how her PT is progressing. Idena Flipping has truly been a A+ class act. I have also received the same compassion and professionalism from every person I have had contact with. From the reception desk, nursing staff, physical therapy personnel, activities director and social workers. My experience to date has been stellar and has made my mother’s placement there comfortable and confident. 5 stars in my book.
