What this means for your family
This facility's therapy team is highly regarded for successful rehabilitation, making it a potential choice for short-term recovery. However, families must be aware of consistent reports regarding slow response times and hygiene issues; we strongly advise visiting frequently and monitoring care closely, especially during night shifts.

Key Review Excerpts
“I gave 5 Stars for the great and consistent help the physical and occupation therapists gave me on every single therapy session I had with them. If it wasn't for them I would still be struggling with my health problems.”
“I gave it 4 out of 5 stars due to CNA staffing issues. Patients should not have to wait 20 minutes or longer for assistance to use bathroom.”
“Within a week at Care One he developed a fungal infection in his groin and bottom and he couldn't be cleaned without screaming in pain. We were with him every day and witnessed him lying in his feces for hours without care.”
