I was there for rehab. I found the nursing staff kind caring and very compassionate. The PT and OT staff were very understanding encouragingly and also compassionate. They got me to a place where I felt comfortable going home. I absolutely feel that 5 stars is very appropriate. The experience was very humbling but they made me comfortable never embarrassed. Their job is very physical and at times difficult but they give it their all. At times it can be emotional. They handle it all with grace. Thank you all nursing staff PT and OT medical staff social workers and all ancillary staff. God’s work on all of you.

Nora is the sweetest nurse and really puts her heart into caring for her patients. This worker needs a raise for all her hard work and dedication to her job. Thanks for taking care of my family!!!

Horrible facility! If you care about your loved one do NOT send them there! My dear mother was there 2 nights and called me crying saying "Get me the hell out of here!" She had to bang on her wall for someone to come and change her, the despicable "nurse" BRENDA literally told my mom to "shut up and go to sleep"! State complaint was filed! I've watched them literally talk to patients there like they were children! The food there looks and smells terrible! There's There is a stench as soon as you walk through the doors....place looks like it hasn't been upgraded since the 80s! There were a couple of workers there who were kind and actually seemed to care about people there, but I'm honestly surprised this place hasn't been shut down! My mother literally cried after 2 days in this place. Absolutely horrible!

The staff is incredibly caring. They make sure to include my dad in activities and even sit outside when the weather is good. My dad has been there many years and I find comfort knowing that he is in good hands!
