My mother was recently a patient at Cardinal Healthcare after a knee replacement and we could not be more pleased with the care she received from both nursing and therapy! Very friendly, helpful and caring staff especially Angie, Amber, Xavier, Volnetta and Alethia. Would 100% recommend!

I was a patient and my CNA, Amber, my nurse, Diane and Angie, the Unit Mgr, Heather, Social Worker, Miranda, Physical Therapy Dept, Whitley, Winley and Denise were phenomenal!! Tim in Maintenance is a wonderful guy!! I can't say enough wonderful things about my care takers!! The worst part was the food! I was absolutely nauseated. I sent full trays of food back. I had to resort to ordering door dash and having a Walmart delivery. My daughter brought a few things for me too. It is sad that you are here to rehabilitate and get better and the nutrition is a large part of becoming healthy. They lack poorly in providing nutritional food!!!!

It's a smaller facility so it feels like a family and very clean. The private rehab room is spacious and the recliner is very comfortable. All the staff are friendly, kind and helpful. The best part is the smiling faces when we arrive through the front door. Its been a great place for rehab and our favorite fur baby can visit which is an added bonus.

Working with Cardinal on mom's admission, rehab and care has been wonderful. Everyone on staff has been professional, knowledgeable, courteous, caring and kind. Dealing with the rehab process is new for our family and Cardinal has explained everything in detail, patiently answered all our questions and been extremely helpful getting all the paperwork completed. We would have been so lost without them. The facility is clean, there's lots of flowers for the patients to enjoy and daily scheduled activities. We are blessed Cardinal had availability for mom when she was released from the hospital.

This place is incredible! The friendly staff and beautiful garden create a serene atmosphere with rocking chairs, a patio umbrella, and a picnic table. It’s like a little slice of heaven!
