CHOOSE THIS FACILITY! I have a family member that has been in 3 different rehab centers in the past 2 years. Life Care is by far THE BEST. I had to learn the hard way that when getting discharged from a hospital they give you a list of places and no time to research. I won't bad mouth other places but this facility deserves this long review.

1. Donna in admissions was a huge help when I was calling around.

2. The physical therapy, occupational and speech therapy is not only outstanding, but they spend twice the amount of time with patients than other places.

3. The short term rehab is separate from the nursing home so you only see patients working and getting better.

4. I learned they use hospital ventilation so there isn't the "smell" that places can have.

5. The food is actually GOOD, with healthy choices.

6. The staff truly seems to care that people get better.

You have choices as family members, and I thought I would write it down to let you know, don't let the hospitals push you to places that are not good. I took my sister from Celebration Hospital to this place and the drive is worth it. Most of all, my sister feels safe and cared for there. She remembers the bad places and I told her I would never let that happen again.



Thank you for taking the time to read this, I hope it can save families time and stress and I wish health and recovery to a loved one that needs to go to rehab.

My father has been at this nursing home twice now. Once for nine months and again for the past six months. The location is clean, the people are cordial, helpful and friendly. But the best part is that they CARE about their patients. My father gets the best care available and they are continually trying to work in new ways to help him improve. There are too many names to mention of the friends and supportive people I have met at this place. BTW, less than 200 beds, so at times it is hard to even get in! I am thankful for the Life Care Center of Winter Haven.‎
