"Your nursing personnel were very professional and proficient. Also, your occupational and physical therapists were competent and friendly."
"I was very impressed with the staff and the caring they showed to other people there. The OT and PT staff were great- making therapy a treat and not a treatment! I am improving well and would tell anyone who needs rehab to come to Franklin Woods."
Five Star!
"My stay here was very helpful: The staff here is very knowledgeable and professional. I was here once before and I knew when I needed rehab again I only would go to Franklin Woods."
