Key Review Excerpts

The nursing staff here were amazing. They were kind, attentive, and made me feel comfortable the entire time.

Rehab patient · 2026★★★★★

The nursing staff was good and attentive in caring for him except till the end of his stay. The therapy team was wonderful in recovering his speech and physical cap

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★

My grandma was here after a hip surgery. Before she left the hospital they had her stand up as she started PT. Once she went to Leewood she never stood again. She also had a fever for two days and SEPSIS and said she didn’t have an infection or fever.
