Both of my therapists have a little over an hour drive each way, they always show. Would recommend.

Was a great place when Charlie was director of nursing.. Wyatt seams to be more of an inconvenience since we live so far away then a priority. "Because you live so far away and it's a Sunday evening, we can't get anyone to come readmitt Wyatt." Charlie didn't care his words were call me when he gets released I'll meet you at home. Even when it's Sunday evening and nasty icy weather he would come and resume Wyatt's care. Now this place is full of excuses finger pointing and the blame game.
