Key Review Excerpts

The staff—Department Heads and Nursing Staff—cared for my Nana like she was their and own. Look no further for exceptional care from experienced, devoted staff.

Long-term resident's family · 2022★★★★★

My stepfather had been moved here from another rehab facility that was terrible! This place was wonderful. After a few days of rehab, his health declined and we had to call in hospice. ( he was 94). The staff and the administration could not have been more caring!

Rehab patient's family · 2020★★★★★

Do not leave your loved one at Wesley Woods without a camera in their room. My dad was abused by 4 different aides in the past 2 weeks.
