Key Review Excerpts

The staff at Kruse were very professional and caring. The facility is a little older, but well kept, very clean and has a wonderful atmosphere.

Rehab patient's family (LVN) · 2025★★★★★

The Kruse rehab department did a wonderful job in helping my mother recover from congestive heart failure and a long hospital stay. With great care and thought, the team worked to strengthen her daily, with the goal of returning her to live independently at home again.

Rehab patient's family · 2025★★★★★

My loved one was in rehab for a week. After 3 visits they said no visitors due to Covid. They sent him home with his arm all marked up from a wonderful fall, and a fungus around his catheter.
