The staff is great! They are professional, kinda, good-spirited people. I was able to ask for things; they were willing to help. The facility is nice, clean, I love the way the rooms are set up. The activities speaks volumes. You make sure there are things to do. With your care, I'm in better shape than when I came.

Thank you for taking care of my mom.  She felt people were very kind to her.  She appreciated the care she received and she always felt comfortable.  A special thank you to the women who took care of her daily.

I first want to start by saying – this is why I wanted to come back to NorthCrest Specialty Care. I think all of your OT and physical therapy are great. I’ve learned a lot through them. The staff are great and helpful. Also, they are understanding and if you have questions, they always seem to have the answers and if they don’t know, they try to find out for you. Your nurses are great. If you need something, they get it if they can. I like all of you very much!

Awesome care center. All therapists are excellent. Nurses and most CNAs are excellent. Most meals are good. Bedrooms with individual bathrooms and showers are really nice. Will miss the staff now that I'm back home alone.

The CNAs and nurses...were always helpful and had good attitudes and were encouraging throughout my stay and many stages of healing.

I cannot say 'thank you' enough to the nurses and staff for all that was dne for Mom during her final hours. The family is so grateful for all the love and support given to us during this difficult time. You all went out of your way to make us comfortable. You were able to give her peace that we couldn't have done at home.
