This rehabilitation facility is top notch. It is clean. The individual suites are well accommodated for an in-home feel. The food is very good. Every staff member is very competent in their work, not to mention courteous and friendly. It would be difficult to find a better rehab facility than Advanced Healthcare of Aurora that offers the same high quality of care all around.<br>Ron Gotlin

Absolutely hands down the worst medical care I have ever seen!!! The staff is rude and had no compassion!! They did not do their job would not help (my brother) to get up to go to the bathroom he was told to just poop on himself and they would come clean him up when they have time then he would be left in dirty pants for over an hour sitting in his own poop ( this happened several times) the care was unacceptable and inhumane!!!! DO NOT SEND ANYBODY YOU CARE ABOUT TO THIS FACILITY!!!!!
