My Dad spent the last few weeks of his life at Ballinger Healthcare and Rehab Center, and everyone was so kind and accommodating. The nurses were compassionate and always had Dad’s best interests at heart. Everyone, from the nurses to administrative staff to dietary aides, should be commended. I highly recommend this facility.

I researched and went by all the HealthCare and Rehab in San Angelo Texas and finally went outside San Angelo to Ballinger HealthCare and Rehab Center. It was great home away from home for my husband Robert for 6 weeks. He went in not able to walk well balance was off. He had a brain infection and needed iv antibiotics twice daily. The staff there is great couldn't have taken better care of him myself. The Rehab staff worked with him everyday 5 days a week and got him walking and stable on his balance. They were able to work with Robert really good great men. Robert always looked forward to them coming and getting him to work out. I can never say enough good things about this home away from home. If I ever needed to go there if I am unable to take care of myself I told my husband and Son I want to go to Ballinger HealthCare and Rehab Center. My husband went in as a very sick man after staying there and being taken care of he was released today the 15th of August 2025. Robert came out a new man walking really well and well from his brain infection. If you or a loved one needs to go to a HealthCare and Rehab Center this one is the one. Very clean and always smells good great food too. They have a backyard that is great to go set outside and hear the birds sing. Thanks Ballinger HealthCare and Rehab Center and Staff for taking such great loving care of my husban
