Key Review Excerpts
“All staff were kind and caring. Nursing staff were professional yet you were treated like family. That is true for all of the departments. The food was excellent and rooms were kept clean. Thanks to the therapy department as they prepared me to be able to walk again.”
“My wife came in as a short-term rehabilitation patient after a hospital stay for seizures, needing watchful supervision and physical therapy, assistance and rest. That seems to be a sideline for this facility. Attention is understandably focused on the more permanent residents.”
“The person forgot she scheduled a meeting with me so I had to wait for her to be found. Then told me her facility couldn't help me with my husband. Wish she told me that thru email or phone call.”
