Key Review Excerpts
“My 96 year old grandmother has been to 3 different rehab facilities in Monroe County in the last 2 years for different reasons. The staff has been absolutely wonderful, caring and attentive.”
“I strongly caution anyone considering this facility for long-term care. If you do not have a family member who can stay constantly involved, closely monitor care, and aggressively advocate, your loved one will be in serious trouble.”
“My 63 year and otherwise relative healthy mother was intubated and put in ICU because she was left in respiratory distress for almost 6 hours citing it was just 'anxiety'.”
