Steere House was the rehabilitation center my brother was hoping for. As I observed his recovery, it became clear that one particular person made all the difference in the success of his stay – Christina, Director of Social Services. She offered her services in a professional and caring nature that boosted patient inclusion, confidence, and dignity. She consistently communicated with family throughout and showed an amazing attention to detail and follow through on action plans. Kudos to Steere House for hiring such exemplary healthcare providers as Christina.
