What this means for your family
This facility is highly regarded for its physical therapy and clean environment, making it a common choice for short-term rehab. However, families should be aware of consistent reports regarding slow response times and neglect, particularly during off-hours. We strongly recommend visiting during the weekend or evening to observe staffing levels firsthand before making a decision.
