What this means for your family

Key Review Excerpts

The therapy department is one of the best. Doctors, nurses social workers, aides and even the director were available to discuss any questions. Well oiled machine working together as a team.

Rehab patient's family member · 2025★★★★★

The facility is old and worn out but the staff is what makes the difference. I was very concerned that my husband got the proper care and had the best PT and OT experience which he needed to recover.

Long-term resident's spouse · 2026★★★★★

I gave this place three stars because I did like the nursing staff here very much. Very caring and on top of everything that needs to be done. I didn’t give it the best rating because of the administration staff that were always rude and talk down on you anytime you’ve asked a question.
