What can I say - no one really wants to go to rehab, but after my husband spent 3 weeks in the hospital, he needed some rehab! Having never chosen a facility before, we decided to go by reviews and initially went to one rated 5 stars. It was definitely NOT a good fit for my husband (and I'm not really sure how it got the ratings it did). After researching our rights, I decided to transfer my husband to Columbine. Almost immediately we understood that it was the right decision. Michelle was very accommodating on dealing with the transfer and Jaime approached our situation with warmth and professionalism. One of the head nurses, Dawn, familiarized herself with my husband's complex medical requirements, and the PT, OT, and Speech Therapy professionals jumped right in from day one - all approaching us and their jobs with courtesy and respect. Betty, who has worked in this establishment for a long time, seemed to always know what was going on. I cannot remember all of the names of the people who worked with my husband, but my sincerest thanks for doing this very difficult job. The one hiccup was my husband initially having a very difficult roommate - a problem that went unaddressed for longer than it should have, but which was eventually taken care of. So, while no one really ever wants to be in rehab, if we had to do it all over again, we would have picked Columbine first. What a great facility to have in the community!
