Key Review Excerpts

Griswold Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center is clean and absent of odors which speaks volumes in itself. I'm always hearing residents say how much they love the housekeepers!!

Family member · 2022★★★★★

The care my mother receives is wonderful. I can always count on the good communication I get from the staff. They ARE caring and very educated about what my mom needs for her well-being and happiness.

Long-term resident's family · 2023★★★★★

The menus are multiple choice and they are supposed to offer alternate choices for folks that can't eat it. But they charge the menu & give you what they want you to eat. If they spent that money on the alternate they would be able to afford the wipes,etc. that they want your family to buy.
