I have only been around 3 Nursing Homes, but Stockton Healthcare is by far the best, plenty of employees working there, clean facility, and the food they serve looks good.

Terrible hours and service is hit and miss depending on which doctor you get. As usual for a rural setting most of us use them out of necessity since there are very few options

Our dear friend from church lived out his remaining year at Stockton Lake Health Care facility and we visited him frequently. The facility was clean, everyone was friendly, the activities they do are top notch nearly always finding ways to involve the community in some way to get interaction with the residents & our town. He was very fortunate to find somewhere; though not home as he desired, to spend his remaining time being cared for.

My grandmother was here for 3 months and my father was here for 17 months. This is one of the finest places I have seen. The staff is amazing and caring and always treated my grandmother and father well and even took care of us when we visited.

IF YOU CARE FOR A HUMAN, DO NOT ALLOW THEM TO STAY HERE.<br>The owners of this facility also own CMH IN BOLIVER.<br>TAKE YOUR FAMILY TO SPRINGFIELD. AVOID STOCKTON HEALTHCARE FACILITY AND CMH IN BOLIVER IF YOU CARE FOR YOUR FAMILY/FRIENDS.<br><br>Not only did a lawsuit happen against this place for a negligent death (WE WON, THEY KILLED MY GRANDFATHER) but now they have given a medication that is on an ALLERGY LIST to another family member of mine, that now has her fighting for her life in the Emergency Room.<br><br>PLEASE DO NOT SEND SOMEONE YOU LOVE TO THIS FACILITY.<br>They do not care. They stole my grandfathers belongings after they chose to ignore him falling rather than calling the family and an ambulance.<br><br>Our lawsuit ended up with at least 1 doctor being fired due to negligence death.
