Key Review Excerpts

My step father was there for rehab he was a fall risk he was walked to the bathroom without proper training and he fell and was moved to his bed YOU DONT MOVE an head trauma person , and end results he died.

Memory care family member · 2025☆☆☆☆

I used the call bell to ask for assistance, but nobody came for long periods of time. I could hear people laughing right outside my door but no one came in to help me even though my call bell has been going off for almost an hour.

Rehab patient · 2025☆☆☆☆

The entire team at Mineral Springs provided compassionate care and rehabilitation services. They were easy to work with (as I am the caregiver for my dad) from start to finish.
