P.S. I didn't mention Daniel. As far as I'm concerned he is the ONLY Person that really cares about his job. The rest do it n that's it. He's very attentive n shows ya what you're taking n why. He doesn't miss a stroke n I take lots of meds n he made SURE I had them all n the nebulizer stuff. I'll miss him. Thank you for a GOOD stay. Also your selection of TV leaves a lot to be desired.i don't understand Spanish.

Very pleased with the care from my caseworker Andrea CNAs Sheree and Jade, Nurse Steve and to the Physical Therapy team especially "G". I was under the care of Woodcrest for 14 days and the individuals mentioned above made my stay a good experience. I would highly recommend this facility. When you have individuals show you they care and they listen and display compassion. There are other individuals not mentioned that contributed to the quality of care I received. From my experience it's a definite "thumbs up".

My mother concluded her rehab there for a couple of weeks. The place was clean, and the nursing staff was very warm. I'd like to especially highlight the physical therapy team, Sheila, Julie, Janet and the entire dream team of PT's. Thank You Woodcrest.
