Very unprofessional! Please do not trust these people with your loved one. They left my mom in the bathroom for over 10 minutes and tried to claim it was only a couple minutes. I came into find my mom in the bathroom, completely naked and sitting there waiting for someone to help her. I cleaned her up, dressed her and walked her back to her bed, with still no nurse in sight! After putting mom back to bed, I went out to confront the nurse, and she insisted it was only a few minutes. There’s no way! These people are disgusting and unprofessional. Please do not trust them!! Find a different facility if you can help it.

I was just in Cheney Care Center for Rehab following a stroke. I was so pleased with the level of care I received while there! There is no way I can possibly recognize everyone, but I was in 28B so you know who you all are. Even the housekeeping staff was so friendly & polite. The PT staff was excellent!<br>Thank you to all the CNAs for answering call lights so promptly and having such great senses of humor. Thank you for the canine visits from Jack & Walter!! You all are the best!!!!<br>Mary Chapman
