We’ve had the privilege of partnering with Parkway Hills Nursing and Rehabilitation, and the experience has been nothing short of outstanding. Their team is compassionate, professional, and deeply committed to quality care and smooth discharges for their patients. Working closely with Erika and Athena has been a true pleasure. They are both incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and easy to work with—always going above and beyond to make sure patients receive the support they need. We’re proud of our partnership with Parkway Hills Nursing and Rehabilitation and look forward to continuing to serve their patients together! —Matthew Ibrahim, 1st Meridian Care Services

If you are looking for a Rehab/physical therapy/LTC or SNF, this is the BEST facility for your Loved one…❤️ My Mother was a resident for 2 years at PHNR- she was so loved and so cared for by all the shifts at this facility! I was so grateful for the Pysical Therapy when she 1st was admitted, and for the continued care she received. I called many times during the day to talk with her and never received an attitude from who ever answered the phone. I feel so blessed knowing they were taking care for as “family’. Her CNS’s were so caring and cared for her. I don’t want to name names, as I would have to name the entire staff! From the Admin., to the Cleaning ladies - you will always be in my “grateful prayers” and a BIG thank you to the Kitchen staff that was so accommodating. The staff is so loving and caring that I felt they were ‘family’ taking care of Mom.

I have been here for three weeks. I want to thank all the personnel for their attention especially to my nurses, Emma, Carlos and James, and my CNA Rosalinda for her attention and helping me with everything. Thank you Rosa. I cannot forget my super team of physical and occupational therapists, Lori, Joanne and Armando for their patience and all the help they give me. That is why I recommend Parkway Hills Nursing and rehab 100%!

All the personnel is very friendly. Therapist are great, my occupational therapist Lori was great. All service is slow (food and nursing) due to low staff. For the most part, my stay had been pleasant and I feel like I have gotten better. Medications are distributed on time. I also like that it is a smaller facility and I received more attention because it was smaller place. This place would be a 5 star facility if they had more staff and faster service.
