“My 93 year old dad has spent the last year at Ocala Health and Rehab. The staff, Liz, Celia’s, Pamela, Jennifer, Christian, Mika and Jodi in the east wing have been amazing. Always so cheerful and caring even when sometimes Dad was not very happy. As a group they have seen, not just Dad, but his family when we were upset or scared. What an awesome group”
