Key Review Excerpts

I left stronger and in better shape than I arrived. I am so thankful for their strong team of Physical and Occupational therapists.

Rehab patient · 2026★★★★★

The entire place smells like urine. Said my mom was incontinent, but when the help button was pushed, it often took 30 min or more for someone to come.

Memory care family member · 2025☆☆☆☆

My grandma has been receiving terrible care. Basic care is not being done, she has developed an infection due to their incompetence and negligence, and her medications have consistently been given late too.
