Family worked with hospital social worker to place a family member here. We called. Left messages. Social worker called. Insurance was involved. Never got a call back. Not a single call. The receptionist was very nice but unfortunately no one else connected with us. We were very disappointed.

My husband had a stroke in January of 2026. He spent 3 months in a rehab hospital with very little to no results. He came to Saint Joseph's Village, and the first week he was here, they had him walking the parallel bars. The physical therapy staff is phenomenal. The regular CNA's are very caring and compassionate. Even the kitchen staff and dining room help is very kind and giving.<br>My husband came here from Kansas, and it was the best move we could have made. I highly recommend Saint Joseph's Village skilled nursing facility.

Kathleen C. Recently came in for rehab therapy. She said this facility is the best to be at for rehab therapy, she is beyond grateful with her experience here. Kathleen said during her time here she loved the staff, everyone had very warm, loveing and pleasant attitude. The hospitality that Claudia Schulz-admissions manager- offered during the search for a Rehab place was one of the things that made her choose St. Joseph Village. Kathleen said the rehab team is amazing as well and being able to make new friends during therapy and on her floor was a just a plus! She said she will absolutely recommend this facility for anyone who asks about a wonderful rehab place.
