“My great grandmother was here last month! My grandmother talked highly of the Nurse jackie and all of therapy. She loved her private suite, she loved playing bingo and the arts and crafts they offered! She definitely would chose hermitage over again!”
“My mom was here for a short time to do rehabilitation after a fall. She loved the staff so much that it made me feel less worried about her. Everyone was very nice and genuinely seemed to care about the patients. I would recommend them to anyone in need of a loving environment for someone they care about.”
