Is Highland View Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

There are no official resident reviews of nursing homes: Medicare's Care Compare publishes inspections, staffing and quality data instead. Here is what that record shows for Highland View Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center as of October 2026.

CMS rates it 4 out of 5 stars overall, above the Pennsylvania average of 3.0. Inspectors issued 7 citations in the last three years. CMS reports no fines or payment denials in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 5 out of 5; for long-term residents, 3 out of 5. Those results differ a lot, so ask about the unit your family member would be on.

Online reviews from families and residents are on Google Maps and other sites; they reflect individual experiences and aren't checked by CMS. The full inspection reports, including what inspectors observed, are on Medicare Care Compare.

Staffing

Nursing staff spend about 3.88 hours per resident per day at Highland View Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center, above the Pennsylvania median of 3.64 (US median: 3.72).
