Care teams for rehab stand out
Rehab and therapy care receives strong praise from multiple residents and families.
Several reviews mention rehabilitation experiences and describe therapy teams as effective and supportive, including help with mobility and recovery after injury or surgery. Families also point to nurses and rehab staff as part of what made the experience go well. The activity and care routines described alongside rehab contribute to a feeling of ongoing engagement during recovery, though one critical review directly disputes that standard of care.
