Each and every one of the departments and groups displayed a very high degree of professionalism. The care, the laundry, the food....I could go on and on. I am so very happy to have gotten to know those who watched over me and I consider them family. Thank you St Francis. You have a wonderful staff.

My uncle was recently at St. Francis. Both my husband and I were impressed at how caring the staff were with all the residents. They were attentive and engaging with the residents. My uncle has always loved fixing and tinkering with mechanical things. Staff recognized this and included him on some of their maintenance rounds. He really enjoyed this. Nursing care was excellent! Highly recommend this facility!

When our mother's health and mental state began to decline, our family embarked on a thorough search to find a facility that could truly meet her evolving needs. After visiting over 11 different locations, we walked into Saint Francis Rehabilitation Nursing Center and immediately felt something different — a sense of warmth, friendliness, and genuine care that was evident from the moment we stepped through the doors. The environment was clean, welcoming, and filled with positive energy. What stood out most was the staff’s deep connection with the residents. Everyone was greeted by name, and it was clear that these weren’t just formalities — they were real relationships built on compassion and respect. Making the decision to transition a loved one into a care facility is never easy, but Saint Francis made that first step feel less daunting. Now, six months later, we can confidently say that all our hopes have been realized. Our mother has not only received the professional and attentive care she needs, but she has also found a true community. She has formed meaningful friendships with both residents and staff, and she often shares how welcomed and valued she feels. Saint Francis also does a phenomenal job with activities. There is always something going on — from musical entertainers, visits from school children, exercise classes metal and physical, Mass and bingo. Our mother genuinely enjoys participating and looks forward to these events. They’ve added joy, engagement, and a sense of routine to her days, which has made a noticeable difference in her overall well-being. The entire team at Saint Francis has exceeded our expectations in every way. Their dedication, kindness, and professionalism have brought peace of mind to our entire family. We are beyond grateful for the care our mother receives and wholeheartedly recommend Saint Francis Rehabilitation Nursing Center to anyone seeking a nurturing and high-quality environment for their loved one.

We are so very pleased with the care for my father. St Francis staff have been so kind to him and have given him so much love and respect which has gone beyond our expectations. We don’t have to worry or be concerned about his care or treatment at all. Most staff know everyone’s name throughout the facility which shows they truly care to make them all feel loved. They warmly greet him and let him “work” along side staff at their desks or help “fix” things around the house. He loves Patrick and Ryan especially. They make him feel comfortable and at home. These two were his first faces to get to know well and they continue to make him feel safe, loved and heard. Our experience has been so wonderful, like no other facility. He was so forlorn while living at another facility before coming to St Francis, he quickly became comfortable and confident and we realized it would be good for him. We took pictures of him before and it was night and day. Thank you to all staff at St Francis, Chuck & Connie
