What this means for your family
This facility is an excellent choice for families prioritizing cleanliness and high-quality rehabilitation therapy. While the staff is overwhelmingly praised, be aware that many recent reviews focus heavily on a single individual (Keanna Gonzales), so you may want to verify that this level of care is consistent across all shifts.

Key Review Excerpts
“The therapy people were all so professional and kind ..I can't say enough on how they helped me get motivated and get out of the bed.”
“We were initially disappointed with the accommodations for my mother-in-law (87) as she entered rehab after a stay in the hospital. However, we took the time to honestly express our concerns and needs to Paula in admissions. She listened and quickly got back with changes that worked for us all.”
“Only nursing home I have ever been in that smells clean. Staff was kind and attentive.”
