Secure entrance, you feel as if your love ones are safe. The staff was very friendly. They listen attentive to my love request and some not all responded in a timely manner.

Husband 2nd day at Care Center for PT/OT. Very pleased with the staff welcoming him and explaining the details of his care. Room is nice and I feel very comfortable with his care here.

My father was here for several months a few years ago after a bad fall. If it had not been for his determination to walk again and the wonderful rehabilitation department at this facility, he more than likely would not have. The staff treated him so kindly and he remains friends with his therapists and nurses to this day. Please keep in mind when reading reviews that most of the time people only speak out when they have something negative to say!
