This was my second, stay here at Bennions veterans home. The staff and faculty have been awesome. The physical therapy staff were excellent. With their excellence in their profession , I was able to make vast improvements very quickly. All the staff and faculty were very good to work with.Especially recreation department , helping us to feel at home away from home. I needed to go some distance away for my medical appointments and Bennion veterans home transportation department were very accommodating , and I made my appointment on time. There was an excellent choice of menus for our meals and the kitchen staff and laundry staff were excellent in getting me taken care of.<br>Sincerely, John Pfau<br>United States NAVY Veteran
