Overview

Liberty Pointe Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center received a Trust Grade of C+, indicating it is decent and slightly above average compared to other facilities. It ranks #305 out of 653 in Pennsylvania, placing it in the top half of state facilities, but only #25 out of 29 in Bucks County, suggesting limited local competition. The facility is improving, with the number of issues decreasing from 8 in 2023 to 7 in 2024. Staffing is a strong point, with a 4/5 star rating and a turnover rate of 52%, which is average but not alarming. Notably, there have been no fines reported, which is a positive sign. However, there are concerning incidents, like failures to maintain sanitary kitchen conditions, with expired food and unclean equipment, as well as issues with the overall environment, including stained and peeling ceilings in multiple areas. While there are strengths in staffing and no fines, families should be aware of the sanitation problems that need attention.
