“My husband was in Rehab at Lutheran and it was a very positive experience for him and for myself. ALL of the staff were courteous, respectful and most of all caring.”
“I can't say enough about the service my mother received at Lutheran Rehabilitation & Skilled Care Center in Worcester. They handled me with compassion and patience when I'd call with my BS because I was emotional and grieving.”
“My mother in law and I visited her brother in law, this week. We hadn’t been for awhile, but were blessed with the care he was given. Adrianna and another aid , had him washed, shaven and in a wheel chair to go outside.”
