My wife was admitted here to get some physical therapy work done. She's been here now for a total of 8 days. Long enough for me to come up with the following conclusion. Its a GREAT facility! This is the smaller 200 bed unit at 806 E. Washington. In a world where nursing homes are known to not possibly care less about their patients and you read and hear about failures constantly, this place is a shining star in the sky amongst all the other fading stars. I felt like she was safe and WELL cared for at all times and you're listening to an EXTREMELY overprotective Italian, so to get the green light and praise for such an Institution is a rarity for me! Everyone has done a spectacular job, but special shout out to Janice Gibson. She's a straight talker and a straight shooter. Articulate to the core and doesn't beat around the bush. Something you need when its concerning the health of a loved one!
