My dad came to Odebolt Specialty Care in July of 2024. The staff is fantastic! They cared for my dad like he was their own family. I never worried about him like I worried about him in another nursing home. I would recommend Odebolt to anyone searching for a Nursing Home for their family.

Nope..nope..nope..just don't. Please choose a different nursing home for your loved one. I trusted them with my mother...didn't turn out too well for my mother. She is now living with me and soon to be placed in a nursing home close to me.
