REVIEWS

This is an extremely nice facility that is well run and very well kept. I was amazed at how attentive the staff and management are to every detail. If you or a loved one is in need of acute rehab or long term care I would HIGHLY recommend this facility.

My mom had to come here from the hospital and her care was great the staff are always kind and caring and listening to our needs. I felt like the business office and the administrator were very helpful with any difficulties that came up while we were there. My mom had food allergies and the kitchen tried extremely hard to accommodate her. Overall like any place my mom has stayed in the past there are always things that can be improved by on, what I found to be the best thing is that they were always willing to work on it instead of trying to cover everything up like we saw at the hospital. Thank you to rehab, nursing and activities for keeping my mom motivated. Your caring shows. We had a very positive experience!
