Our story

How the bell got here

A hand-me-down bell, 2001

When Crowley's Ridge opened, a retired schoolteacher recovering from a hip fracture brought her old classroom bell from home. She rang it on her way out the door, and a tradition started.

The lap board, 2009

Our therapy director hung a whiteboard by the gym and started posting walking laps. Within a week guests were sneaking in extra laps after supper. The Friday dessert prize came a month later.

Private suites, 2016

We renovated every rehab room into a private suite, because guests who sleep well work harder. It's still the best decision we ever made.
