I recently performed at the Rehab’s annual Elegant Dining party with my jazz trio. I was impressed with way the staff treated the patients and respect they demonstrated. I highly recommend this organization!

I was there on Halloween, visiting with my girlfriend Irene. We played Bingo and had a treat. They gave out a prize for the best door decorations. Some of the staff and residents were dressed for Halloween. They had decorations through out the building. Irene enjoys her food there, especially ice cream for dessert. The staff is always helpful with your questions, and the residents needs. Always clean, and they make sure the residents are taken care of. It's a great place to have a loved one stay. Irene misses being home, but enjoys her friends here. Playing Bingo, cards, crafts and music.

The facility had change a lot in the past 6 months. The lobby looks a lot cleaner and put together. And the wings and floors are always clean. In my opinion the recreación area in the middle needs some improvement and more season decorations to help the patients know with season we are on. the staff made their loved one feel comfortable and at ease, and that they were able to bring in items from their loved one's house to make it feel like their room. Overall facility is good
