My mom has been staying here for well over a year and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the care she has received, the staff here really care about the residents and everyone including maintenance house keeping etc seem to know most residents by name I think that’s so sweet. My mom says they always answer her when she calls and she never has to wait too long the facility is clean and doesn’t have smells and management is always available during the day to answer any questions you can just go right up to their door and the issues are handled immediately

I am very impressed with the level of care I received at Colonial Health Rehabilitation in Colby WI. The atmosphere there is warm and friendly. Every employee that helped me during my stay were respectful, and caring. They were so helpful in getting me every service I needed. The PT and OT therapists were interested in my progress and helped me immensely . I don’t think I could have had a better experience!

This is the worst place to be my mother in-law and my my grand daughter is her great grandma was in there and they let her get sick when she should have been in hospital when she first got sick now she is really bad and won't make it thanks to you people and I will make sure people know about you guys you people need to have respect for older people cause you people just let her lay there when she would ask for blankets and people don't bring her belongings back like there suppose to I know you people have picks but just remember how would you like it if you were in a place like that and got treated like that. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. Keep your loved ones home and love.

The staff here are very lazy! Your family member will stay in bed 95% of the day!! They don't encourage them to get up!! They are all about the money . They don't support the family into getting them back in the real world and will make their condition look worse then what it is just so they can get the money. My family member lost weight because they don't encourage him to eat properly. He eats alone in his room. He's depressed and should be home with his family who can care for him and has the degree's to do it. Unfortunately he will die there I wouldn't recommend this place there are so many better ones. Keep your loved ones home with family where they are loved and cared for. There are agency's that can insist you in caring for your family and they can stay home where they are loved and cared for.
