I recently spent a few weeks at this facility, and I am eternally grateful for all aspects of care I received. When I arrived, I was in excruciating pain and could barely walk. I was extremely nervous, but was instantly put at ease by the friendliness of the staff. The treatment I received by every person I came in contact with was incredible. The nurses, the cnas, housekeepers, administration- the list goes on. Each person took the time to make sure I was recognized, and that my needs were met. Medical treatment and rehabilitation are ostensibly why a patient comes to the facility, but hospitality is of equal importance. This is what truly propels a person to heal. I was in an extremely vulnerable state, quickly replaced with hope and optimism thanks to the genuinely caring and compassionate team. The nurses were efficient, professional and attentive. The call lights were answered quickly, and always with a smiling face. The therapists were top notch; patient, motivational and effective. I went to cedarview on a stretcher, and left barely requiring the use of a cane to walk. Thank you to all who made my recovery such a pleasant experience!

Mom 87 yo old mother stayed at Cedar View for 10 days . The staff was attentive to her needs and quick to respond . The staff was extremely friendly ,supportive and knowledgeable. They made me feel confident knowing that my mother was in good hands upon leaving her . They stride to make each day as pleasant as possible by offering daily activities and the staff ‘s cheerfulness The staff went over everything clearly and thoroughly so in her return home she would be safe by setting up PT for her next day in her home .

My Dad was at Cedar View as a Rehab patient; I really have nothing good to say about the facility. I sent a letter to the facility with my concerns and never received even an acknowledgement of receipt, except for the certified signed document. I did forward my letter to the State of Massachusetts Department of Public Health to put the State on notice of my concerns. Decisions for rehabs are made quick and availability can be limited, question the hospitals and use your network for recommendations.

My mom just got there a 1 & 1/2 days ago so a little early to rate but so far I have no complaints. Room is clean, staff are attentive & nice. Got there this morning at 9:45 and my mom had eaten her breakfast, she was out of bed and in the bathroom, she was dressed, hair combed, and her bed was made, and had been evaluated by PT and was using a walker on her own when she came out of the bathroom and got herself into a chair. I was happy to see her up and about! Thank you for taking care of my Mom!!
