I recently sustained an injury that required me to come to Gardner Rehabilitation, and I admit I was a bit skeptical at first. After spending a week here rehabbing my injury, I was pleasantly surprised by how kind, attentive, and helpful every staff member was. From the doctors, nurse practitioners, nurses, and CNAs to OT, PT, housekeeping, and food services, everyone was friendly, supportive, and truly committed to patient care. I couldn’t have asked for a better overall experience. The only area I feel could use some improvement is the mattress. Given the nature of my injury, quality rest—both at night and during the day—was essential to my recovery, and a more comfortable bed would have made that part of the healing process easier. That said, the exceptional care and compassion from the staff made my stay a positive and reassuring experience overall. Cannot wait to go home and heal in the comfort of my home.

I want to share a huge thank you & appreciation to Gardner Rehabilitation and Nursing Center. My family has had members there twice, once a few years ago and currently. From the first time we walked into the facility we were treated with care, compassion and kindness. All the staff listen to everyone’s needs and concerns. In the first case my sibling received treatment and PT and OT and was able to return home in the quickest time possible. Top notch treatment and care! Currently another sibling is receiving top care and treatment as well. The facility is beautifully clean, warm and welcoming. From the top administrators and receptionists, to medical and support staff, everyone takes great care to see that residents’ and their families’ needs are met. The facility has a real family feel to it. Our hearts feel that our family members are treated like family by all staff members. A huge shout out to Kelly A & Michelle F in admitting, Lisa A and all the receptionists who take care of residents’ and their families’ needs and requests, and all the medical and support staff Including CNA’s Shelby, Stacey, Laura, Kelly and others and all the top notch nurses, OT & PT (Jackie), social workers and activity directors and assistants. Everyone working together really makes Gardner Rehabilitation and Nursing Center a warm, safe and caring home away from home.

My 94 yr. old dad spent 10 days at Gardner Rehab and Nursing Center, attended and comforted by a polite and professional staff. A medical team greeted him on day one making sure that every detail of his care was covered. From skilled nurses to PT and OT specialists, from an activities person to a concierge and a diet tech; every aspect of his care was focused on getting him back to pre-hospital condition. And they do this for every patient. Communication with the patient and family is regular and supportive. Makes you feel like you're part of their family. Can't commend this facility enough. Thanks so much for helping my dad return to his active life.

My grandparents live at The Gables and we already know they’ll be going to Gardner Rehab if they ever need rehabilitation services. They’ve made so many friends there who always have the best things to say about the care, the staff, and how comfortable they feel. It’s really reassuring to know there’s such a warm, caring place close by for them if they ever need it! Highly recommend.

Having a great recovery stay here. Nurses and CNA's are very kind and caring. Physical and occupational therapy people are extremely helpful. Teaching me to do things the proper way to help me recover faster. The food has been great. The facility is kept very clean. The staff is friendly and easy to get along with. There are even activities that help keep your mind busy and help you feel like you are a part of something instead of feeling like you are isolated. I would recommend Gardner Rehab to anyone needing a safe and caring place to recover from a major surgery or illness.
