Key Review Excerpts

While my uncle stayed here to recover from heart surgery, their meds were stolen by staff, and their social workers failed to respond to every call.

Family member of rehab patient · 2025☆☆☆☆

If I could give zero stars and still leave a review, I would! This place is HORRIBLE. I don’t care how short staffed you are, you are in charge of people’s LIVE’S!

Family member · 2022☆☆☆☆
