Thankful for this facility and their team. I want to highlight Sandi and her incredible dedication to patients and families. I’ve personally seen her work tirelessly and go above and beyond to find placement, coordinate care, and advocate for people in difficult situations. She doesn’t give up and it’s clear she truly cares about the individuals she’s helping.
