When I first walked in staff where very nice and respectful that I have met so far as it was my moms first day yesterday . I really liked Thelma she has a very respectful and working matter and treats the patient and there family respectfully . I also like Brianna she was very nice and respectful and you can tell she cares about her job and what she does. The only thing I noticed was that where the heat vent was a little dusty but that’s because I like to clean but overall the place it self was clean

Only gave it a one so I could write this review. Please do NOT put your love one in this rehab. The problems are to many to write about. Will leave your love one sitting in soiled pants for an hour. They leave them sitting alone in wheelchairs for hours on end . The minute you complain you are their worse enemy. The staff is overworked and let you know that everytime you complain about waiting. It's the worse.

I had come to see a resident whom is there for physical therapy needs. They had her sitting in an attends from early am till well after 2 pm. Not once did they ask to toilet her or change her. She had nest in her hair of knotted tangles and told me she has not showered in 4 months since she has been there. The place is severely dirty as well as the nursing is loud and socially unprofessional. All my resident said was that she wished she could use the bathroom again.

My dad spent two weeks here. My family considered ourselves partners with the team of caregivers at this facility. The nurses, aides, and cleaning crew could not have been kinder and more compassionate to my dad and us. They provided great care under very difficult circumstances. We also had the pleasure of working with the rehab team and each of them was extremely qualified and competent in the rehab they provided - speech, PT, and OT. The facility was being cleaned constantly and even the cleaning crew was kind and loving. My family will miss seeing the team at this facility and commend them for their dedication and commitment.

Our father entered the 2nd floor at Blossom Health Center a couple of weeks ago for rehab. Our experience there was amazing! The staff there from the receptionist, cleaning crew, attendants, nurses, therapists and doctors were all so caring, thoughtful, and kind. Every time you walked past someone who worked there they said hello and made us feel welcome. Thank you to all who cared for our dad while he was there. You are a very special group of care givers!
