Would not recommend this facility at all<br>They have a beautiful building. But that is we're it all ends . Management very unorganized. They never give you straight answers and do not ever respond to phone calls.

Everyone is super nice. They respond quickly to the call button. OT/PT check back if the initial round is inconvenient for the patient. Private rooms are nice for privacy. The meals are exceptional and is perhaps the premier feature at the rehab center.
