“I was there from before Thanksgivig through January 14. The staff was wonderful. I couldn't have asked for better care. The girls were so sweet. The rehab was wonderful. They were teaching me to walk and I would still be there if the insurance hadn't thrown me out. I need just a little more rehab and I would have been walking and ready to go myself. Patients know when they are healed, not insuran…”

★★★Virginia Maynard · 2026-02-08 · via Google

“Could use training among night shift on responding to patient call lights. Food is great, and most workers try to focus on patients emotional and physical needs”

★Rebecca Chambers · 2026-05-04 · via Google

“For some reason, whenever I attempt to call to check on a resident, no one will answer the phone. This is ridiculous. I have attempted to call 4 days in a row and no answer.”
