Sample family reviews

From Peony Hill families

Two nights after my knee replacement I couldn't sleep. The nurse sat with me and we talked about my roses until I dozed off.
Margaret D.Rehab patient, 2025
Dad gets confused at night. Luis knows exactly what to say. I sleep better knowing he's there.
Ray T.Son of a resident
When Mom took a turn at midnight, someone met us at the door and walked us straight to her room.
Janet W.Daughter of a resident
Three weeks after my stroke surgery I went home walking. The therapists never gave up on me.
Charles B.Rehab patient, 2024
Gloria calls me herself when anything changes. Not a voicemail.
Debra H.Daughter of a resident
Rosa healed a wound we'd fought for months at home.
Tom K.Husband of a resident
Kiana sorted out Mom's Arkansas Medicaid when we'd moved her across State Line. Nobody else knew how.
Shelly R.Daughter of a resident
The night kitchen made my husband a chocolate milkshake at two in the morning. He hadn't eaten all day.
Wanda P.Wife of a resident
Discharged on a Sunday night and Teresa still answered.
Leon F.Rehab patient, 2025
The halls are quiet at night. No beeping, no shouting. It feels like a home.
Anita M.Daughter of a resident
The Nash campus is smaller, and Martha knows every family. We chose it for that.
Bobby G.Son of a resident
When Granddad passed, the chaplain was with him and stayed until we arrived.
Kayla S.Granddaughter of a former resident
