My mother has been here twice over the years. Most recently she stayed here for about 6 weeks. The level of care, organization, and therapy is many levels above most rehab facilities in the area. She felt cared for and the therapy was great - she made tremendous progress over her time and was very grateful. Juliana, was very helpful with all communications - and the therapy staff was amazing. Highly recommened.

If there were more stars available, I would check them all! The halls and rooms in this rehab sparkle with cleanliness but there's more. The stellar service from ALL staff: housecleaners, CNAs, RNs, NPs, administrators, and kitchen workers is only topped by the respect, dignity, and care each have shown me over my 2 week stay. And did I mention? The food is beyond 5 stars too, The fresh meals and incredible soup choices are always changing and prepared to please the eye and the appetitie. The soup is so good, I don't even look at what kind it is, I know it will be better than I could ever make! Single rooms make this a true sanctuary for healing.

We feel very relieved and happy to have my mother in law recently welcomed as a LTC resident at Elizabeth Seton Residence. There is a respectful, peaceful atmosphere there and we feel that she is being appreciated and well cared for as a unique individual. The setting is bright, clean, and staff has been kind every time we have interacted with them. We are grateful for her to be there.

I awoke this morning to a lovely memory of my stay at Seton Residence in August this past year. I was at Sunday Mass and the Sister sitting next to me reached out and patted my hand. It was such a kind gesture to someone struggling to get stronger. Everyone there was so kind to me, even the friends I made: Tony, Rita, Betty, and of course the nurses and rehab therapists: Bobbi, Kelly, etc. Years ago I taught school with the Sisters of Charity in my parish: sisters Elizabeth Ann, Sister Natali, Sister Saint. Agnes, sister Virginia Ann. I felt so comfortable being there.

Elizabeth Seton Residence is just simply a wonderful place. The staff are more than just caring and professional, they really take the time to get to know each resident as a person. The building is always clean and welcoming. It is bright so bright with lots of windows, no bad smell, and everyone is always smiling. The rehab team is excellent and truly focused on helping people reach their goals. You can tell everyone here takes pride in what they do. I’d highly recommend it for anyone looking for quality short term rehab or long-term care!
