My husband was transferred here from BAMC Fri, today is Sunday and he hasn't had a shower, still wearing same clothes he came in with and has received no rehab. His meals are cold and no one checks in on him and take forever to answer call light. Not happy.

My grandparent stayed here for physical therapy after surgery, and the experience was excellent. The staff were kind, attentive, and supportive. I really appreciated how they kept me well informed about his progress and worked hard to help him get back on his feet. I’m very grateful for the care he received and would highly recommend this place. They made the transition easy and any questions I had they were quick to respond. My grandfather said the food was great and had a positive experience

My sister-in-law lived at Amistad for almost 8 years until her recent passing. I was in charge of her care and was extremely grateful that she was at Amistad. The nurses,caregivers and staff were kind, efficient and loving toward her, even when it was not easy to be so. They communicated with me on a regular basis and I always felt well informed. In particular, Maggda Reyna always kept me up to date with her needs and wants, even calling me to make sure I had information on her emotional well being.<br>In summary, if you are seeking assisted living for a loved one, you cannot do better that Amistad<br><br>Keith Lynn
