My husband was admitted to Pruitt on the 12th of March until Saturday, 3/28/26. He was transferred from Northeast Ga Medical center where he received excellent care but needed more rehabilitation, still weak, feeling unsteady. Within 2 weeks he was going through physical therapy and occupational therapy at Pruitt and he was able to walk out of the building on his own, I would say miraculous. Therapists were absolutely amazing, actually the entire staff was very helpful whenever they were needed. Our family is very grateful for wonderful care he received and we would recommend Pruitt to anyone that needs rehabilitation. Thank you!!!

Let me tell you, the change in this facilities to bring excellent and worthwhile cate to it residents has seriously stepped up in the past year or so. There is a much more positive energy walking into the building and all of the staff seem to genuinely want to be there and help and care. Smiling, greeting, and quick to answer questions or get you to the right person. While the building is older, you tell they are doing everything possible to keep it clean and functional and a place that the residents and families are comfortable.

For an older building it is surprisingly well maintained. Staff are always smiling, pleasant and doing their best to uphold very solid care. Good therapy staff and exceptional dietary options. Love the folks and they do amazing work.
