I've been a patient there and great care service over all.<br>- The nurses they are incredibly caring and very helpful, but the only downside they're always low on nurses staff but hey what hospital or rehab isn't at the moment.<br>- The food is good, you get to choose multiple selections in food wise from their menu and it doesn't look like a hospital food but more like what you get served in a restaurant. Perhaps because of their culinary sheff they got? I don't know but didn't disappoint.<br>- They even have food menu for visitors with reasonable where they can eat with you if it's a patient room or downstairs in the cafeteria dining room that option is open for the visitors to be with their family to eat together.<br>- Snack menu available 24/7<br>- Saloon available as well if you need a haircut, nails etc whatever you need they have it available which that's rare for a rehabilitation center to have.<br>- Recreation to keep the patient active they got a team for that with different activities and entertainment.<br>- The place is very clean since you get a house keeping comes to you daily.<br>- If you can't take a shower than you get a team dedicated just for that to help you with.<br>- Pt, Ot, and ST have a fair amount of staff that are available all day daily where they come to you or you get to work on your strength in their big Therapy gym room facility either way they got you covered.<br>- Dr.s dedicated all day there and at night they have on call Dr.s available as well.<br>Overall even though you might have to wait on your nurse a little bit to come to you due to being low staff, the place is definitely worth 5🌟 for great service overall.
