My mom has been at the Mother Theresa rehab twice. Her last experience there was wonderful. She said the food was really good and the staff was so kind. Our family is so thankful to everyone there!

My husband recently was in the rehab section of Franciscan Village for several weeks. The entire staff was always cheerful and happy to meet his needs. My husband experienced outstanding care. Every person we encountered was wonderful. You could tell that they enjoyed their jobs. Staff always introduced themselves right away. His room was always clean. Everyone treated him as a person, not a patient. The administrator and Head of Nursing would stop by the room to check up on him. The social workers were on top of his release ordering complicated multiple pieces of medical equipment for discharge. Physical and Occupational Therapists were excellent, pivoting to meet changing needs quickly. Every time I entered the building, I was greeted by my name several times. In short an outstanding experience, I highly recommend Franciscan Village. Carol Dudzik
