The Administrative Staff are wonderful to work with. The Nurses and CNA’s are attentive, kind and compassionate. We can’t say enough good things about the care that is provided at Life Care Center of Cda. We are so thankful that we found such a wonderful place to take care of mom.

I was extremely pleased that I chose to go to Life Care Center in CDA, ID. I was treated very well. I would give the staff 5 stars. There were 2 wonderful Nurses that truly went above and beyond to ensure that I received my medications so I was comfortable. I had a shattered pelvis and was in great pain. They made sure I was as comfortable as possible . The Nurse's names are Cameron and Lori and I was blessed to have them caring for me. PT was great and compassionate. The Nurse's Aides took good care of me and answered my call lights in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend Life Care Center to others.

I went to visit the facility for my sister to be placed. Nobody knew who I was. I just walked through the building. The staff was incredibly friendly. They are courteous and very kind to all their guest that stayed there. When I got lost, they totally directed me to the right wing that I needed to be in. They explained what they knew about it. I’m very happy for my sister to be there.

The staff are wonderful!! 5 stars for them. The facility is also great. Great recreational functions, very nice library, there’s even an Ice Cream Parlor. The physical therapy staff are doing a great job helping my father in law get back on his feet after a double leg fracture. The only negative is that my father in law says the food is mediocre at best and the menu is repetitive.
