We were treated as family at Pioneer. My husband had lost all mobility and after a few weeks he had started regaining the ability to walk and enjoying life again. Melbourne is fortunate to have a rehab that is clean, knowledgeable, and friendly. We enjoyed the 55 days we were there and hated to leave our ‘new’ family. Tom and Carolyn Towell

Pioneer took great care of Sam while he was in rehab. Very positive experience including paper work, care and follow up after discharge.

I don't have the words to adequately describe my time and experience during my stay at Pioneer. Wonderful staff,clients,food, even PT was made as pleasant as possible. Im normally critical but honestly can't find any glowing issues at all. I highly recommend Pioneer for yourself, your family and friends. Anyone that you love. They will receive top notch care and all that goes with it. Sincerely Tim Vest

The folks at Pioneer gave my mom excellent care. From day one they were friendly , caring and helpful. They always kept me up to date on my moms needs and condition I don’t think there is a better place. I truly don’t know what I would have done without the Pioneer folks. Angels from above for sure

Wanted to give a shout out to Pioneer Nursing Home. The staff and nurses are amazing. Linnette in the business office is wonderful! She works so very hard working with families to get the best financial aid/help possible. The nurses are also amazing with the care they give the residents and medications are managed to perfection. CNA’s are in the amazing group also, making sure the residents are comfortable and their concerns are taken care of. The cafeteria staff are also in the amazing group as they serve the best food anyone could want, along with snacks if a resident needs one. The facility is also well maintained, with a neat and clean appearance ( kudos to the maintenance crew). As you can tell I cannot say enough good about this facility and just wanted to share my thoughts.
