Key Review Excerpts
“Not only did she get tremendous care, but there were two extremely kind, professional and compassionate social workers Ramona, Jessop and Maggie Rios.”
“The rehab workers had me working consistently so i literally went from a wheele chair to a cane in a week. Super clean decent food.”
“The nursing staff for the most part was exceptional. There are some very serious health and safety issues I think need to be addressed. They blame it on orders from the doctors most of the time but, they were very inconsistent with med schedules.”
