Welcome to Gardner Rehabilitation and Nursing Center
Our Facility
Whether you come to visit a guest for a day, join us for a short-term stay or are one of our valued long-term residents, Gardner Rehab seeks to impress and comfort. When you join our family, you can rest assured that you’ll receive the best care, best service and best environment available.
Recently renovated and constantly updated, Gardner Rehab facility boasts the highest level of highly trained staff, but our dedication to your comfort goes much further than that. We offer separate but equally stunning environs, designed and built from the ground up with your care in mind. Guests staying with us temporarily or indefinitely will find their own entrance, elevator and communal areas, providing the ultimate in privacy and dignity. Well-appointed meeting areas are available for private parties, sun chasers fall in love with our new gazebo and those wishing to be social can enjoy a meal in the dining room. Our entire property is climate controlled, but those wishing to brave the great outdoors are thrilled to lounge in our spacious patio gardens. Have your hair done-up in the salon, or seek peace in our chapel. All this can be enjoyed if you choose to leave the comfort of your room, but with privacy, well-appointed furnishings and a flat-screen TV, you may not want to!
In addition to the comfortable living environments, don’t forget to visit the top-quality rehabilitation areas as well. Some guests may be so comfortable they’re liable to forget they’re not on vacation! Our main goal is always healing those people trusting us with their health, and our suite of medical therapy options helps deliver that to you or your loved ones. We urge you to come for a tour and see for yourself everything Gardner Rehab has to offer. You don’t have to wait until you need someplace to go for healing – our commitment to the community means we welcome you to visit any time! You’ll be happy you did.

Special shout outs for Dr.
B & Dr. M , Nurses Manny and Sam , and CNA’s Manoucheka, Tina, Kelly, and Vanilla! There are literally Too many wonderful names to remember! Excellent PT and OT staff! They have given me so many tricks to maintaining my balance and strength that I’m going to carry them for the rest of my life. If you ever have to go into a rehab, please pick Gardner rehab. You won’t ever regret it.!!!
The only area I feel could use some improvement is the mattress. Given the nature of my injury, quality rest—both at night and during the day—was essential to my recovery, and a more comfortable bed would have made that part of the healing process easier. That said, the exceptional care and compassion from the staff made my stay a positive and reassuring experience overall. Cannot wait to go home and heal in the comfort of my home.

I have been here and this is my wife’s second time here. If it wasn’t good we would not have come back. We are very happy with everything – the care she receives is good and the staff are nice. The food isn’t bad but if she won’t eat they will send something else up for her. Having a good roommate helps, too.
