Rehab therapy drives progress
Therapy is a major focus here, and multiple residents describe meaningful recovery work.

Several families also describe the therapy team as knowledgeable and supportive, helping manage recovery sessions and encouragement day to day. Even reviewers who were critical in other areas still single out parts of the clinical rehab experience as strong.
