What this means for your family
This facility is highly effective for short-term post-surgical rehabilitation, with many families praising the therapy team and facility cleanliness. However, if your loved one requires high-level nursing care or has dementia, please be aware of consistent reports regarding slow response times and communication gaps; you will likely need to be a very active, daily advocate for their care.

Key Review Excerpts
“The nurses left her in bed and didn't change her out of her dirty clothes. They take forever to answer call lights. She has several wounds from neglect.”
