The Lodge at Mills River Health and Rehabilitation

"This rehab center is a rare gift for those who need help after surgery. Staff is kind and respectful, the facility is spacious and beautiful, and the physical therapy department is the best I've known. After rehabilitating from one knee surgery, I returned after the second knee replacement, and it felt safe, like returning to a family member's home. I highly recommend this place for anyone who isn't ready to go it alone after surgery. I can't find enough kind words to describe how they helped me."

"My mom was sent to The Lodge after a brief hospital stay and before she was allowed back in assisted living. I found the nurses and CNAs caring and attentive during her stay. While no one chooses to be in skilled nursing, my mom was well taken care of and I was at ease knowing she was safe. Should the need arise again, I will ask that my mom be placed there and will do so without reservation. Thank you for your great care!"

"Please leave me more room to talk about this incredible place. My mother has been there for 9 days, and from the first moment we walked in, I knew we were in a special place. From the front office (who went OUT OF THEIR WAY to help us work out insurance to get her there!), to the nursing staff (INCREDIBLE!), to activities coordinators, EVERYONE has been so kind and helpful. The facility is gorgeous - clean and pristine. You feel like you're in a luxury hotel. And then there is PT and OT! I cannot say enough of how impressed we've been. We were so apprehensive about my mother going anyplace for rehab, as the last time we sent her (in Florida!) she literally laid in a bed for all but 1 hour a day. NOT HERE! When The Lodge says "Rehabilitation", they mean Rehabilitation! It is not a place to go and just lay in bed until you feel better. They set goals and make sure you reach them. We watched a session of PT today and they had my mother doing exercises I have NEVER before seen her do. I cannot say enough how grateful we are to them nor how much I would recommend anyone go there. Thank you to The Lodge for your loving care!"

"I was there for rehab 7/22 after major spinal surgery.i was totally dependent on others when i arrived. While facilities are beautiful, i was left for hours with noone checking on me, pain meds were not given on time,my bed was unsleepable,, the nurses were rude and controlling especially at night. In short it was a hell hole.i am an OT who has worked in many rehab facilities some good some bad. I would never recommend this place to anyone. Daren the head nurse and one of of the Ots were the only ones who showed any concern."

"I recently spent 14 days at The Lodge for rehab after a total knee replacement. I am a retired nurse and have worked in rehab facilities over the years. I can say I have never been in a facility that gave such wonderful compassionate care. The rooms were clean, never any odors. The call lights are answered quickly. The food service is restaurant quality. PT and OT is top notch and tailored to the individual patients needs. Nursing services is compassionate."
