My mom was here for rehab, it’s so very hard to get any one on the phone and when you do the staff is very rude and even hangs up in your face. My mom went an entire week without a shower until she called me and I had to call them and asked why and demand a shower for her. Their excuse was “our hot water was off”. Then she was supposed to be there for 90 days without any warning they told her she had to be gone because of her insurance the day before she had to leave. Upon visiting there was huge holes in the floors leaking ceiling and an extremely terrible smell. The guy that helped her with therapy and a couple of the aides my mom spoke very highly of but honestly other than that, that place is TERRIBLE!

My Mother spent exactly one week at this facility. By the seventh day we had her taken to the ER for a blood sugar of 528. Apparently this was going on for days and she ended up with ketoacidoses. She was saying they were trying to kill her. Now I wonder if she was right. DO NOT RECOMEND!
