If I could give no stars I would…when you get there they will paint a pretty picture for you. Of course they will welcome patients with “open arms” but it’s not worth it. She was ill but they did reduce her quality of life. She became progressively worse while she was there. There is no compassion there. They did not take care of my mother properly and when she had a wound they didn’t tell us it was there. When we asked for updates we were told it was getting better…..that was not the case. The nurses don’t like to work there. They go out of their way to find a CNA. Watch out for the nurses and the wound care nurses. I’ve noticed after each bad review….there is a stream of good reviews. It’s a pattern…some business ask people for reviews but it may just be the few who were satisfied with the care from this place

We can’t thank everyone at the rehab and nursing home enough for the extraordinary care they gave our dad Eliseo S. From the highest levels of leadership to every nurse, aide, therapist, housekeeper, and staff member, every single person treated him with dignity, compassion, and genuine determination. When our dad arrived, things looked incredibly difficult — he could barely move or speak — but this team never gave up on him. Even during the hardest days, they continued encouraging him, working with him, and believing in his progress when many others might have lost hope. Their patience, kindness, and dedication made all the difference. The therapists went above and beyond every day, celebrating even the smallest victories and pushing him with care and respect. The nursing staff was attentive, compassionate, and always willing to answer questions or provide comfort to our family. You could truly feel that they cared about him as a person, not just a patient. What impressed us most was the teamwork throughout the entire facility. No matter someone’s position or title, everyone treated our dad with warmth, respect, and encouragement. That kind of culture is rare, and it speaks volumes about this facility and its leadership. Because of their hard work, faith, and refusal to give up, our dad made progress we honestly weren’t sure was possible. Our family will always be grateful for the love, support, and exceptional care they provided. We wholeheartedly recommend this facility to anyone looking for a place where people truly go above and beyond for their residents and families. Forever grateful, Mirna B, and siblings

I came with very severe pain and needed much assistance. The staff was excellent and the therapy helped me. I was given help to do things myself.
