Our family is incredibly grateful for the care our Mom received during her stay at Arbor Post. The staff consistently showed kindness, patience and genuine compassion throughout her recovery. They were attentive to her needs, responsive to our questions and made us feel informed and supported every step of the way. The facility itself was clean, well maintained and created a comfortable environment for healing!

Arbor Post Acute took care of my mom when she was diagnosed with dementia and stage 4 cancer. She was there long term for over 2 years. The care they provided my mom was excellent. For 2 years, I consistently got check in calls about how she was doing in between our monthly visits and there was never any issue with her care.<br>The nurses were overwhelmingly caring and pleasantly helpful. Whenever we had a concern, they took our concerns very seriously and followed up with us. We visited regularly and every single time, we were greeted with warm smiles by the staff.<br>My mom loved to introduce us to the staff and so we met all of the staff that interacted with our mom and they all would be delighted to meet us and engage with our mom.<br>Because we were 3 hours away from the facility, it was a great comfort to know that she had angels taking care of her when we were not there.<br>Arbor Post Acute administrative staff is great as well. When we had an issue with coverage, they were extremely patient while I reapplied for coverage and they were very supportive during the process, affirming that they would keep taking great care of her as long as she was there.<br>Even towards the end, my mom would remark: "You know, I am really loved here. They really do love me here." and we saw proof of this every visit.<br>The team at Arbor is excellent. Me and my family will forever hold a special place in our hearts for the wonderful people we met at Arbor.
