My husband was admitted after a 15 day hospital stay, on March 22, 2026. He stayed at LCC for 6 weeks. He was admitted because he was on iv antibotics due to being septic. He was not able to sit upright, stand or walk. He revieved both OT and PT 6 days a week and within a week, he was in a wheelchair, standing and rolling from side to side. He walked out of the facility today and got in our truck by himself. The care he recieved was remarkable. The facility is clean and comfortable. He had many who helped him, and treated him well, but there are a few who really stick out. Angie was one of his nurses, and how she cared for him and advocated for him, it was like he was related to her, she cared so much. Jake is a CNA and his wife Ashley is a CNA/QMA, both are meant for these jobs,they provide compassionate care and were so available and accommodating, took into account John pain level, and always did what was best for him. The Social workers, Tasha and Tonya are the best, and did everything they could to make things easier, and less stressful for us. The employee who sticks out the most is a CNA named Dwayne. This man is a true gem. He works his tail off, never stops, never makes you feel bad for asking for anything. He is professional and mixes this with caring. I wish this man was my neighbor because im sure he is like this with everyone he comes across. Housekeeping, dietary, admissions and activities, also has great employees and i wish I remembered more names. If for any reason anyone in our family needed a long or short term facility, this would be the place. Thank you Life Care Center, John is now home with the ones who love him most, because of your capable care

My family had an excellent experience with Life Care Center in Valpo while my Dad was in their care. From the moment he arrived, we felt reassured by the compassion, professionalism and attentiveness of the staff. I especially want to recognize Nurse John, who truly went above and beyond. He treated every patient with dignity, kindness and humor that brought comfort during a difficult time. It was clear he genuinely cared. John also supported the family, taking the time to communicate, answer questions and make sure we felt informed and at ease. That level of care meant more to us than words can express! We are deeply grateful for the outstanding care my Dad received. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone in need of rehabilitation or long-term care for a loved one.

I had an opportunity to tour Life Care with Angie this week and was impressed. It was welcoming and lively—it was great to see so many friendly interactions happening throughout the building. Staff and residents took the time to say hello…..and that stood out to me. Thank you everyone at Life Care Center for a pleasant experience!
