The staff goes above and beyond to try to do everything possible to accommodate my dad in every way they can. The housekeeping staff does a wonderful job at keeping his room clean and smelling good.

My father-in-law just moved in a few weeks ago. The facility is clean, the staff cares & that's hard to find. Thank you for providing him with such thoughtful companionship during this period of transition, your support means a great deal to our family.

I have been in travel nursing since 2012 and it is very hard to find a nursing facility who welcomes agency with open arms and love. Rehab Center of Allison has done that. They are the true definition of teamwork and family. I have never seen a group of people get along so well and have so much respect for each other. You can tell that the staff and the residents are truly close, like friends and family. Rehab Center of Allison has stuck to the core values of nursing; commitment to quality of care, compassion, care, competence, communication and courage. This also goes to show how well management is doing, they are leading and building their team to success daily and making each person feel valued. Another thing I have noticed is how they encourage staff to take time for themselves to refuel our bodies so we are able to better care for patients, a true blessing and a level of compassion that isn’t often found these days. Thank you to the Rehab Center of Allison for welcoming me into your home!

The staff is great. Most staff go above and beyond to make sure residents are taken care of and feel like they are at home. It's nice to see the staff communicating and laughing together and with the residents. It makes a positive and inviting atmosphere for the guest/families visiting.
