1. The facility is lovely, open and sunlit.<br>2. The staff has a never-ending supply of friendliness, warmth, humor, as well as "let's do this!" energy.<br>3. The best part for me was socializing with other folks there who needed help getting back on their feet as I did. We were all "on the same page" of working towards health even though we came from varied backgrounds and ages. It's important to get out of bed and out of your room - meeting others and sharing our wisdom and experience is vital to avoid the depression isolation can foster.

My dad spent over a month here after hip surgery. We could not be more pleased with the caring and professional team that supported him during his recovery. Highly recommend!
