“So I came home from NHC Springfield yesterday. I have to say NHC was so good to me! From dietary, housekeeping, therapy, tech, nursing and administration. The director saw my call light and came in to help. I didn’t have one of them that was rude. I’m going back when I have my other knee replaced. Thank you NHC Springfield!”

★★★★Carolyn Russell · 2025-09-03 · via Google
“My mom went in for rehab. She had some of the very best nurses and techs. Home is always where the heart is, but while there she was treated the very best and everyone went out of their way to help her. Food not very good, but every person that came in contact with her or us was so very wonderful. Thank you all.”

★★★★Betty Shelton · 2024-09-10 · via Google
“My sister has been a patient at NHC for 7 months. Basically I would rate the care good. The DON, Helen is great, social workers, Torrey and Sam are helpful, Wendy in business office knows her stuff, techs respectful and dietary department has the best down home cooking in Springfield , Shasta and Punkin are like family”
