First of all, my thanks to the PT staff, Matt, Vanessa and Miranda. Also the OT staff, Kenzie and Brandi. William, Dana,Kelly and Steve.There are more but names elude me. The cleaning and maintenance staff also. They were so nice and friendly. The building is older but was kept clean. I was there for the rehabilitation part. My experience was one of feeling lost in not knowing procedures. I came in on a Friday and my pain meds from a hip replacement were not gotten until the following Monday. The room was cold and they got the heat on finally.
