Our read on Anoka Rehabilitation And Living Center

Anoka Rehabilitation And Living Center runs a nonprofit shop with 120 beds, and its staffing is the clearest strength: 4.11 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average, though weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 36.8%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The inspection record is more mixed, 32 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a single $24,297 fine. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the picture is current. Quality and staffing measures score well; the survey history is where you'd want to ask questions.
