Both of my parents receive care here. One rehab and one long term…. The staff from physical therapy, speech therapy, nurses, cna’s, social workers, financial counselors, maintenance, just to name a few are wonderful. Everyone is always kind and friendly and they also treat my parents with kindness & provide them with wonderful care. They have allowed this transition to be easy for us all. Harris, Brian, Nell, Tyesha, Nikisha, Yvette, the CNA’s on the 500 hall I thank you all. Longterm care is hard but everyday they show up to help pts and families. Thank you to all the staff for everything you do!

So far a good experience the bed is not as comfortable as mine at home. The food good most of the time. My favorite nurses are Blanch and Brian Davidson. Yvette is a very nice and helpful CNA. My room is clean. I could use a recliner so I can sit back put my feet up and relax.
