My son has been here for over 10 years now. When he first came, his illness was in control of him. Thanks to the loving and professional care of the staff at the 'Rock', my son is now in control of his illness. I have my son back. My son and I don't know what we would do without the Rock.

Such great atmosphere and management that go head over heels for residents as far as it comes activities, psychosocial groups, extended services once rehabbed back into the community, and communication with families and friends (with releases of information). The staff will make sure the residents needs are fully taken care for and not overlooked before staff worried about their own families.
