In past year, I spent time in Hoosier Health. 3 times to be exact. I have worked in several LTC facilities and this was the best. Wonderful rehab department. Activities all day long. Good caring staff. Keep up the wonderful work

Staff is very friendly and helpful and have answered any questions or concerns that we have had. They made sure my Father-in-law kept his chair time for dialysis, they notify us if he has any issues. We are very pleased with this facility.

Myself and my mother toured this community looking for a rehab for my grandmother. Everyone was very friendly, and eager to meet us and speak with us about the care my grandma would need. There were no smells and the building was very clean! It felt very homey. I believe that my grandmother would have wonderful care in their hands!

Everyone was so kind and went above and beyond during my mom’s rehabilitation admissions. The staff made my mom feel right at home! The rehab team was great and very supportive. Brittany and Teia were exceptionally helpful and always made themselves available in helping us whenever we had questions. Brownstown is very fortunate to have such a caring facility!
