A really great place everyone treats you like family and have the best rehab around. They are always striving to make sure everyone has everything they need and going the extra mile for anything at anytime. This is not a facility its a great home.

Mount Sterling has been a lifesaver for me as they have an hour taking care of my husband of 62 years . I did not know what I was going to do or what was going to happen as I had taken care of him for over five years by myself, and they came to my rescue . God bless you, Jessica And God bless all of Mount Sterling staff as they directed me in the best way for my husband to be taken care of . I would not ever place him anywhere, but Mount Sterling. They are absolutely caring and loving and very good with my husband, and that is what matters the most with me. He is my life and they have become part of my life.
