Wakefield Care and Rehab is amazing! I am beyond grateful for all of the staff there. My mom & aunt live there and they take such great care of them. Taking care of a person with dementia can be challenging, but they truly want the best for my mom. They have gone above and beyond to keep my mom safe. It was a hard decision to put my mom in the nursing at a younger age but choosing Wakefield Care and Rehab was the best choice I could have made. Thank you for all you do!

It is well staffed with a fine group of caring employees ready to assist. The level of engagement of residents in fun and creative activities is impressive! I have overall good feelings from Wakefield Care and Rehabilitation Center. I am glad they are in the area!
