Elim was absolutely phenomenal with the care of my husband in his recovery from cancer and life-altering colo-rectal surgery! His mental health improved by leaps and bounds, and he gained necessary physical strength and skills to prosper at home. From his case manager, Lindsay, to the kitchen staff to the care staff, everyone was so kind, attentive, and intentional in their care. Clean, fresh facility with comfortable areas to gather with family and friends, and food that was deliciously prepared. I would recommend Elim 100x over! I have never witnessed better! Thank you, Elim, for giving my husband back his zest for life!

Employees were great! Everything else, not so great. Look elsewhere first. Can't hang on to staff, if the empoyees won't stay, my love ones won't stay, it's that easy. They were always trying to pull something over on my family, financially.
