They have an excellent staff and gave the care and needs for our 101 year old mother. In addition, they also gave her the therapy sessions that were needed during her stay. Need I say no more.

I have been affiliated with Fowler Health Care for many years! First with my mother n law, Margaret Fountain, then my Mother, Evelyn Howell, and now my husband, Delbert Fountain. It is in my opinion one of the best! The staff is excellent. Daniella who is in charge of receiving and many other positions not on her list has my utmost respect!! Sincerely, Joyce Fountain

The entire staff at the Fowler Health care proved to provide excellent care and concern. From checking my elderly ( 96 1/2 yr old) Mother in untill she passed we saw nothing but compassion and concern. This is a great place for uncomfortable situtations. Caring for the elderly is a physically demanding and mentally draining position. Granted nowhere is perfect but I can sincerely say that Fowler Health Care did a great job.

Terrible, terrible!!! The staff does NOT care about their residents, they spend NO TIME with any residents and the staffs ATTITUDE towards visitors and to the residents is HORRID. They have NO RESPECT for anyone including their own staff members... They charge THOUSANDS of dollars a month FOR LESS THAN A ONE STAR SERVICE. This place is a JOKE. If they treat ME like garbage how are they treating my loved one?! More complaints to follow. I'm not finished with this joke of a facility.
