Key Review Excerpts
“The REHABILITATION TEAM is amazing, Ron and Mike were the primary therapists that made the success.”
“I've asked on several occasions to speak to the administration and the social worker. Ive even left notes at the front desk requesting that someone please respond to my requests. But no one ever comes to see what my needs are. And it sometimes takes over an hour for someone to answer the call bell!”
“I came to visit my loved one and found them isolated and in a crisis. The incompetent D.O.N. refused to call for immediate help, instead she told me to wait until their doctor come in 2 days.”
