Key Review Excerpts
“I found out the hospital Grady placed my dad at this location he had a big knot over his eye, diaper was full, no AC , it smells really bad , open pee container on the roll out food tray table in the room, bugs flying around.”
“The rehab team is the bomb. The people are like family. The activities are awesome, they keep them so busy. Everyone is pretty nice, if we have a concern I always feel heard.”
“The staff is very friendly and amazing BUT the only problem I have is when you are in rehab and you push the button for help, nobody comes for at least 2 hours or more.”
