My husband was referred to this facility after he suffered a stroke. I did a surprise check before okaying him to go there. The staff was wonderful. They took excellent care of my husband. The director and other staff was so easy to talk to if there was an issue and they took care of it immediately. Physical therapist. There are wonderful. They work digitally with all their patients. I would highly recommend this place to anybody who is needing to go to a rehab facility. It is clean. It is well organized. The food is pretty good. My husband enjoyed it and he's an extremely picky eater. The nursing staff was wonderful, very attentive to the patients. Like I said, if you're looking for a facility I would look at this one. I'm praying we never have to use a rehab facility, but if we do this will be the one we choose.

I am writing this review to express my concerns regarding the care my Vietnam veteran father received at this nursing facility. My mother purchased hygiene items for him to ensure his comfort, but we were disappointed to find that these items went missing. This situation is particularly concerning given the expectation of compassionate and professional care in such a facility. Upon my return, I intend to discuss this matter with the responsible authority in regard to my father's well-being. Trusting the staff with the care of our loved ones is of utmost importance, and this incident has left us feeling quite unsettled.
