Laura, Ash, and Ana are 3 of the best therapist I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Christine is also one of the best OT's I've ever worked with. She's enchantingly cheerful. She cares about your progress; and works with you to achieve your goals in a fun and persuasive way.They bring out the best in you. With very hard work that also includes fun and laughter. However, there's always a sense of safety and great concern for your progression. The Therapy Transportater, Justin, is a very pleasant young man. Whether taking you to; or, from therapy he always has a sincere greeting with a "how are you today?" He also never hesitates to be of service. A cup of ice water, a blanket...all done with a cheery smile; and, that glint of sunshine in his eyes.

All the folks at Rivers Edge were great but I really have to give kudos to Juliette, Laura, Madaliene and Ash. They did all they could do to help me get back up and running. I would recommend these folks to anyone. I also wanted to mention some of the wonderful nurses aides that have cared for me during my stay. There is Yianda, Hong, Claudia and Catherine. They and their colleagues have treated me with respect and kindness. All in all my experience at Rivers Edge has been a positive one.
