• Negan Wright ★☆☆☆☆ February 13, 2026

  I'm reading all of these reviews and I see the staff is great and I'll agree the staff was kind for the whole 30 minutes my mom was there. There are layers of dust everywhere and mold in the air conditioners. I woke up with a sinus infection from only 30 minutes. I don't mean like a week of dust I mean months and months. My mom has lung issues! Two days I bet she would have died and she was only there to gain some strength. I took her home we will do rehabilitation there. If you just want to drop someone off and not return, that's the place to go. However I love my mom and never ever again!
