Port Charlotte Rehabilitation Center is a skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility in Port Charlotte, Florida, in Charlotte County. Its care options include skilled nursing, short-term care, and long-term care, alongside inpatient rehabilitation and outpatient therapy. The center describes inpatient rehabilitation as focused on supporting a safe transition home. Outpatient therapy is presented as a continuation of care, so people can keep strengthening and progressing toward personal therapy goals after inpatient services. Together, these options encompass rehabilitation stays and ongoing therapy within the center’s described care continuum.
Care planning is described as personalized, with family input and individual preferences included in the plan. Physical therapy addresses mobility and functional movement after orthopedic or neurological conditions or injuries. Listed goals include improving range of motion, strength, coordination, and muscle control. The center’s website describes modern therapy equipment as part of the rehabilitation setting and says therapy techniques aim to restore function while minimizing pain. Occupational therapy focuses on daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating after illness or injury, and includes training in the use of specialized equipment. A third-party facility profile says physical, occupational, and speech therapy are available seven days a week.

This is a for profit, which is the main concern that they have in this place. The easiest way is to get out is to run out of benefits. It is a nice place to go if you want to do nothing for 23 hours and 15 minutes a day. And you get to ride a gym machine for 45 minutes. It is not a rehab facility. I feel like I escaped the day I left when I was driven up the gates, I cried.
My mom is now in Port Charlotte Rehabilitation Center. Her room doesn't look like a hospital room, so she feels more comfortable there. I went to more than one place and some of the other places, their rooms looked like hospital rooms. This room looked more like a hotel room. She doesn't feel like she is still in the hospital, and that's what she likes. The staff seems to be OK. When I admitted her there, they were nice to me, and they seemed nice to her when I was there.

My mom is now in Port Charlotte Rehabilitation Center. Her room doesn't look like a hospital room, so she feels more comfortable there. I went to more than one place and some of the other places, their rooms looked like hospital rooms. This room looked more like a hotel room. She doesn't feel like she is still in the hospital, and that's what she likes. The staff seems to be OK. When I admitted her there, they were nice to me, and they seemed nice to her when I was there. I haven't tried to food, but she enjoys it. They have activities. She is not doing any of them because she's not out of her room, but if she could get out of a room, they have like ice cream socials, bingo, and stuff like that in the common area. It's spacious and it's colorful. There are a lot of trees and a lot of grass. The outside doesn't look like a hospital. The facility looks nice. Value for money seems good.

I was a "resident" in the summer of 2018. It was the worst summer of my life. I was recovering from heart surgery and weighed 162 ponds. I finally escaped on October 4, weighing 112 pounds. After a month, they discovered that I had Gastroparesis. Dr prescribed 4 feedings a day through a peg tube. Originally, the day nurses came in on a regular basis and fed me through the tube. The night nurses did not seem to care whether I was fed or not. Pushing the little button they give you, meant waiting 30-40 minutes and hoping they would respond. Once I returned home, I fed myself and gained all of the weight back. This is a terrible place, and I would not recommend it.
Do not send your family members to this facility. My mother spent just over a month here and was not properly cared for. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere.
After a total knee replacement on Jan. 6, I had physical therapy at PC Outpatient Rehab center. My therapists Nicole, Tera and Betty were an amazing team with all having specific specialties. All three were nurturing, demanding and quite professional. The facility has first rate machine equipment, and is very clean. Also, PCRC well stocked with supplementary accessories for balance, stretching and free weights. My program was individualized for me and as a result my progress was very effective. 9 weeks later I am playing golf, riding my bike and back to walking normally. Thank you to all at PC Out-Patient rehab, I could not have had a better experience.
I was here for outpatient physical therapy. The facility was very clean and well-maintained. More importantly, the staff was great...everyone I worked with was professional and friendly..not just to me but to everyone who came in and to each other...I actually looked forward to my visits and give my highest recommendation to this group. My doctor wasn't that sure they did out-patient PT so I would recommend you do a little more outreach to the medical professionals and potential clients. You should be listed as "Best in Charlotte County"...
Don't be fooled by the pretty rooms, high tech gym, and the Bistro. If your loved one needs Skilled Nursing, look elsewhere. This facility does NOT schedule enough nurses and aides. Your loved will often wait more than an hour after pressing call button. One nurse said he was leaving because management spreads the skilled nursing staff too thin. Mistakes made in our presence, glad we were there to stop it ... very scary to think what happened when we weren't there. If your loved one primarily needs just PT, they should be fine.
