Carriage Cove is a wonderful facility with a welcoming and helpful staff. I have visited many times to meet both residents and families, and the experience is consistently positive. I work in home care, and every client I’ve known who spent time at Carriage Cove has shared how much they appreciated their stay.

We love Carriage Cove. My mom has stayed there many times. They have become more like a family than a rehab center. The building is beautiful and the staff are highly trained. I would not have let my mom go anywhere else. We love everyone so much.

My elderly mother has stayed here twice after hospitalizations, and I cannot say enough good things. We *love* & appreciate Carriage Cove for so many reasons: Homey: It feels more like a home than an assisted living center. It is warm & cozy & fancy all at the same time! Staff: The kindest people work here! Everyone from the nurses to the food services employees to the administration -- everyone is caring & friendly! Care: They are on top of all things medically so I don't have to be, which is such a huge relief as a caregiver. Meds, physical therapy, doctor's appointments. They will even transport them to their appointments! Social: Just about every single day they have an activity of some kind that gets the residents out of their rooms & socializing. Even on the days they don't have official events, they have a nice, spacious dining room residents can dine together in, as well as a dedicated activities center. They are also very supportive of family/visitor time & pretty much make any time & situation work. They are like a home, a hospital & an assisted living combined, the best of all worlds! We love Carriage Cove!

Our father was in Carriage Cove for 2 weeks. The CNA’s did their job, but we waited and waited to talk to a nurse. My family asked for a nurse everyday to ask her about our father’s recovery or going downhill. Sometimes we waited hours, other times days. I can tell you of 3 instances where I walked around the building trying to find her, only to be told she had left. It’s a nice little facility, but do not expect to be treated decent unless you have money and a name to go with it.

Carriage Cove is a beautiful building filled with caring hearts. The nursing staff truly care for people — they want to be there, and they genuinely want to help patients through tough times during rehab, often referred to as “the winter of their lives.” The administrative staff behind the scenes work tirelessly to ensure every detail is handled, making the transition from hospital to subacute rehab and then home as seamless as possible. Highly recommend.
