I have loved my experience here! The food is amazing, my favorite is the BBQ beef. The cooks are amazing. Scott always makes a great breakfast. My blood sugars have stayed stable my entire stay due to the kitchens attention to my diet. Raylee has even brought me hand written notes on my diet and how I can follow it once I go home. I love group exercise! Casie and Kaitlynn always make sure im included and encourage me. Therapy does a great job. Dan in social services is also very attentive and let's me talk his ear off. I recommend this place to everyone! It's clean, fun , and healing!!

Nurse Connie was great, Jake, Keaton and Alex are always upbeat, helpful, attentive and made me feel welcome. During the night Bente was really helpful, especially on my really tough nights. Kaitlyn in PT is encouraging and positively upbeat during every session. She would push but not past my ability.<br>Overall everyone is friendly and professional.
