Key Review Excerpts
“The staff were caring, professional, and truly dedicated to helping her recover in 5 weeks from a broken hip. The therapists were patient and encouraging, and the nurses always went above and beyond.”
“I walked in for my visit to find my husband unconscious and sweating in his chair. His blood pressure had gone down to almost nothing, he was dehydrated and his sugar was sky high, and no one had checked in on him.”
“The staff does not seem to read medical records fully and don’t communicate well enough. I would not send someone there - maybe for orthopedics but nothing else”
