They truly accommodate everyone to the highest levels.
I would recommend this facility anytime, my mother in law lived here for 8 years and I can tell you they were some of the best years of her life! She was so happy here.
My mother also did rehab here and loved it, she was so well taken care of.
Vicki is truly a gem, she manages to give the best possible care available to everyone.
My pleasure to give this review.
