Key Review Excerpts
“The Physical Therapy and the OT is excellent and got me up and going in a remarkably short period of time. The nursing staff is wonderful and very careful that you get all the medications correctly and on time.”
“The only reason I'd give this 1 star is because the aides are very nice to the patients. Otherwise, this center is way way under staffed, patients wait way too long for help when they press the help button. Sometimes up to an hour.”
“My husband was their for rehab. He ended up in a room where the call bell didn't work half the tine. The control to his bed had fraid wires. They didn't shower my husband when he was their.”
