Mt Carmel Nursing Rehab Center

My 86 year old mother was a resident at Mt Carmel after breaking a hip. We had an excellent experience! Having been in Long term care my entire 30 plus year career, I know what to look for and the care that is given at a Skilled facility. The positives to Mt Carmel are the same dedicated staff to the rehab unit 5 days per week and then the same for the weekend staff.
