This place is terrible. Patients suffer greatly because of nurses who don't respond to their needs. They don't know how to treat them and they don't care at all. Infection control here is abysmal; they leave diapers soiled with feces and urine in the hallways and rooms. This place is truly useless.

I have loved my experiences working with the team and caregivers at Gladewater. They care so much! The facility is very nice, and you can feel the love and compassion from this team immediately upon arrival.

This place is incredible! So many rehab centers these days are short-staffed, clearly run down, and not well managed. By comparison, this organization is extremely strong. Great management, care givers, therapists, social workers, and even decent food. The building itself is situated on a picturesque property with water views and that staff are all so compassionate and attentive. I've helped a number of people through rehab in various parts of the country and so far, Gladeview is top of my list. You will feel better knowing your loved one is under their care.

Updated..EXCELLENT top notch healthcare facility. I know my mom's been there 8 years. I'm there almost every day. They are caring loving professionals. Whoever wrote the lesser reviews I looked at their profiles I didn't recognize any of them. I am constantly reminded by others I picked the right facility in comparison to other facilities. I've never had any care giver there tell me no, they go above and beyond. I am humbled and grateful my mom is in such good hands. An update.. My mom was there thru the covid lock down. Heroes these nurses are. Not only did they have to provide care in a difficult crisis for an extended period of time, they had to help all of the families cope. I have since lost my mom. My mom was loved there. It gives me great comfort she had the best staff to care for her. There wasnt one time that this staff didnt respond when i would i would ask them for help. Rest assured if your loved one enters these doors angels have them. I hold this staff in the highest regard.
