My mother has been in Kimes since June. She was hospitalized for a fall. The admission went very smooth and Kaylee was amazing with keeping us informed and what we needed to do. The nurses and aids have been a life saver for us since we are not able to be there every day. We feel so much relief knowing she is being taken care of. Nurse Susan and Maverick has really helped and mom just loves both of them.

My grandmother was here for the last two years of her life. The level of care here is very low; I don’t recommend it to anyone.

My mother is a resident of this wonderful facility. They have small town charm, an exceptionally clean facility and she receives top notch care. Staff always keeps me well informed of any changes that take place. Mom calls it “home” and it really is a homey environment. She loves her aides as well! I would recommend to anyone who wants personal care and peace of mind!

I cannot say enough good things about Kimes. This locally-owned nursing home is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, I felt a warm, caring atmosphere. The facility is impeccably clean and well maintained. The staff here genuinely cares about each resident, going above and beyond to ensure that everyone is comfortable, safe, and well taken care of. The nursing staff and caregivers treat residents with such respect and compassion. They take the time to get to know each person’s preferences and needs, making everyone feel like family. It’s clear they prioritize individualized care, and they always keep family members informed, which has given us so much peace of mind. The activities they organize are wonderful and truly cater to keeping residents engaged, happy, and connected. Whether it’s a special event or a daily activity, there’s always something uplifting going on. The meals are also nutritious and tastefully prepared, which is such an important detail. If you’re looking for a place that feels more like home than an institution, Kimes Nursing & Rehab is the perfect choice. Highly recommend!
