    This is probably one of the best nursing homes out there. They take care of the patients as if they were their own family! The staff here are friendly and kind. I don't know what the staff is paid, but it's not enough for the amazing care they give. i highly recommend taking your loved ones here if you want them to be taken care of the right way.

    This facility is wonderful and has some very amazing staff. I have had 2 family members there 1 (my grandpa) for end of life care and the 2nd for some skilled pt/ot/st (my dad) which the therapist were wonderful working on the things we needed to be able to have him return home again. My family is very thankful for Lantern Park Specialty Care

    My experience as a staff member has been primarily positive. Physical therapy does an amazing job at rehabilitation and the patients always comment on what a fun loving, kind and friendly team of therapists we have. We also have a great nursing staff… caring and conscientious. We love our residents here at Lantern Park!
