Key Review Excerpts

I ended up at Nancy Hart for a large portion of 1021. I don't remember the beginning... They were awesome. Massive stroke Landed me there. In two days in excited to say I'll wil have walked unassisted 300 days this year!

Rehab patient · 2024★★★★★

The staff for the most part was very friendly and helpful. The nursing home seemed very clean and they were taking precautions against COVID properly. The only complaints I have are about when she was first admitted, they lost her clothing and her bottom teeth.

Long-term resident's family · 2023★★★☆☆

This nursing home is IMPOSSIBLE to get in touch with anyone. I am POA of a resident there. They never keep me in the loop, they never answer the phone, and they never return voicemails or emails.
