“I went to visit a dear friend in this facility. The receptionist greeted me right away and directed me on how to sign in. In walking to my friend's room, I couldn't help but notice how clean the hallways and nursing stations were. Employees greeted me and directed me to my friend's room. Her room was very clean and orderly. My friend was very happy here. If I have a loved who would need rehab care…”
