My aunt has been at this facility for several years. I live out of state but come several times a year. I was worried at first but each visit she's always clean and very well cared for. Thank you to her staff that treats her like family. She's on the 4th floor and has the best nurse ( day shift) We appreciate all that you do.

The facility is nice and clean. The staff are friendly and welcoming. I’ve had three of my relatives to receive rehab at Samaritan and my family and I were very satisfied with the care of our family members.

I'm a resident of Orchards of Samaritan and I'm grateful, honored and blessed to be here. Prior to being here I lived alone in an apartment. I couldn't take care of my myself let alone my apartment. I was lonely rarely having company because my kids were working long hours and they lived out of town. Here I play bingo, Pokeno, socialize with other residents. The activities department takes me on field trips, play pool noodle, bowl. I'm no longer lonely. When I was in my apartment I wasn't physically able to cook for myself but now I'm eating like a King.
