They always found time for me.
From the time I entered this care facility, the service from the staff has been outstanding. I realized as I constantly availed myself of their services, that there were a large number of patients interned here but it never seemed to matter. They always found time for me. The nurses were fantastic. The first one I met was so good! This center is lucky to have him. Physical therapy, run by Faith V., was equally amazing. The workouts always seemed to fit my condition at the given time - John, Gabe, Holly, Albert and the recently arrived Min and of course, Faith, all were excellent. I entered this facility with some trepidation but was more than pleasantly surprised. I leave actually wishing I had more time here.
