My dad was recently at Bethel’s Rehab Cottage and my father-in-law was there a couple of years ago. My dad and I were very pleased with the staff and facility. He had been in and out of the hospital and another rehab facility for about two months and was so taken with Bethel. The staff was caring and very accommodating. The rooms were nice and designed with the patient in mind. I would definitely recommend Bethel’s Rehab Cottage.

Bethel Wellness Community truly stands out as a long-term care facility. It has a warm, family-like atmosphere, and the staff are compassionate, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to the residents. Even though it’s an older facility, the quality of care and respect shown to residents is what really matters—and they do it well. I would highly recommend Bethel to anyone looking for a place where their loved one will be treated like family.

The staff were very kind and supportive to our family during a difficult time and helped make my mom’s last days as comfortable as possible. They even allowed us to personalize her room with familiar items and family photos so it felt more like home. Darrin, the admissions and marketing director, gave us outstanding service. He was attentive and kind to my mother, stayed available by text when communication mattered most, and my mom thought a lot of him. I’ll always be grateful for the social worker, Jamie’s encouragement and support during my mom’s early physical rehab days. Both Darrin and Jamie also came to the funeral home after she passed, which meant a great deal to me. I’m very grateful for the care they showed our family.
