Key Review Excerpts

The staff is absolutely amazing! My grandmother recently stayed for a few weeks and everyone treated her so nicely. They helped her get back on her feet (literally) and we will forever be grateful to each and every one of them.

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

The place is amazing, the staff is amazing and I can’t say enough about the therapy department. Thank you Inge and Chris in administration for all your help.

Rehab patient's family · 2025★★★★★

Our mothers experience with Sunflower Park has been subpar with her care and with the care team. The standard of care is not being held to the standard. Our mother has been verbally, mentally and physical miss treated by this facility.
