To Fredericka on MSU, Thank you for the outstanding care you provided to my 92-year-old grandmother yesterday. Your kindness, patience, and attention to detail reassured our family, especially my mother who was worried about her hygiene and care needs. You went above and beyond, and we are grateful. Your smile and personality are so needed in the healthcare field.

Buck Creek is a very good place for your loved ones to go. The staff and doctors were all on point. My dad had extensive Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy. He got the care that he needed. Thank you KiKi, Ms. Flo, Ms. Sheryl, KaTisha, the young lady with the dreads, the other lady that was always dressed sharp at work. His PT Brandon, and the other tall lady. Thank you all for an amazing experience for my father. Mr. Dansby will remember you all forever. Our out of town family.❤️💞❤️💞❤️💞❤️

My family member was on MSU and while I was there I had the pleasure of meeting Frederica E., one time on a Sunday and the other during the week on night shift. Not only did she smell amazing her attitude and the level of care she provided was simply amazing. My aunt was there due to a fall but when I say this young lady has a caring spirit and an infectious smile I mean just that. She asked if she needed assistance eating, made sure all her personal hygiene needs were met she even brushed her hair and her teeth, changed her clothes, she was just amazing. Whatever raise y’all can give her I hope she gets the maximum. My aunt is recovering well and I am grateful that I had a positive experience with at least one person on the care team before I left.

We have my mom there as a resident. She shares a room with a lovely lady who she adores. They chat and enjoy each other's company so for that I am grateful! Overall our experience with Buck Creek has been profoundly amazing! The staff are friendly and attentive, the residents are sweet too! They have lots of activities to keep them busy as well! The different areas including the rooms are clean and well kept. It doesn't smell like your typical nursing facility either! You are greeted at the secured door by front office staff that are always smiling and kind! They keep the family involved and up on all the goings on in the facility by using a huge events calendar in the lobby! My daughter and I stop to check it out when we visit. Lastly they decorate according to the holidays-seasons, so it is always bright,fun and festive! Great job y'all!

I want to thank Buck Creek Nursing Home for the incredible care they gave my grandmother, Gloria McRae. The nurses were truly amazing—always loving, attentive, and gentle with her. They kept her clean, comfortable, and treated her with dignity every day. Her private room was always nice and welcoming, and she was happy during her time there. Knowing she was cared for with such kindness gave our family great peace of mind. We are so grateful for the compassion and dedication shown to her. You so much to the nurses and caretakers you guys literally Help so much in ways that we could not and I will forever. Appreciate you and remember you.
