Several families describe the rehab experience as supportive, including physical therapy and therapy assessments like oxygen monitoring.

Food quality gets mixed feedback
Dining receives mixed reviews, including complaints about meal preparation.
Some reviewers mention enjoying the food, and at least one notes meals as a positive part of the stay. Others report problems with how meals are prepared, including food that they describe as overcooked, greasy, undercooked, or not good. Because both praise and complaints show up, dining appears inconsistent across reviewers.
