I would like to thank everyone who took care of my mother during her time here. Staff was helpful with her, keeping me updated when I had questions about her. Thank you Jenny for taking pictures of her when she was doing different things there. Thank you all.

My visit to take some mail to a friend was very nice, the facility was buzzing with activity. The patients were involved with activities, singing (!), working therapy rooms with staff, and maintenance in and outside making everything nice. Tammy led us to the correct room and even had my friends husband brought by wheelchair to our room for a while. Thank you Tammy!

I have been in Healthcare for several years and Stillwater is the only place where everyone helps and has your back , and this includes The Aspire Team. It's like a family away from home.

Our parents went to Stillwater because it was the only place that they could be together. The nursing staff and CNA’s were awesome. Ashley and Ryan(or Brian) were exceptional! Their care was from the heart! The administration was a different story! The POA for my parents requested needed paperwork for our attorney multiple times, and was told we would get it, but that never happened. I finally called and asked to speak to the administrator. Waited on hold for over 10 minutes before being disconnected. When I called back, I again had to hold and when the administrator finally picked up the phone, she was on the defensive, had excuses and divulged private information to me that she should not have. As soon as we got my mother buried, my only goal was to get my father moved to a facility that was under better management. After just a few weeks at the new location, my father is putting weight back on and looks healthier than he has in months.
