Mr. Finch was a retired Army man that spent most of his career working in Medical Equipment Maintenance. He came down suddenly with a cough that quickly became much worse & began to limit his ability to walk and take care of himself daily. He was admitted to the hospital for pneumonia & acute respiratory failure. Upon discharge from the hospital, he arrived at our facility for intense physical & occupational therapy. He was a hard worker & was dedicated to giving it his all every day. Mr. Finch required assistance with self-care tasks, transfers & functional mobility. Upon discharge, Mr. Finch was independent with mobility & required no assistant device. Mr. Finch was also independent with all activities of daily living. Mr. Finch stated, "Y'all are the best group I have ever worked around and the best group I ever worked with"! He also said if he ever had to come back to a facility for therapy, he would definitely be coming back to Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation Center.

I chose Huntingdon Health & Rehab for myself because I heard good reports from a nurse. The therapy department, Randy Burton, Betty Kurr, Margie Hampton and Barbara Milton...were just some of the team members that stood out during my stay.

Very compassionate and friendly environment.

I chose Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation center because they had a room and rehabilitation! Randy Burton, Lacie Wilson, Kayla, Tawana, Terry Ivy, Betty Karr, and Barbara Milton were all so good to me during my stay! I liked Bingo, Sunday School, and Sunday Services too!

I chose Huntingdon Health & Rehabilitation Center for my daughter, Amanda. The therapy department, nurses, housekeeping, Randy Bunton, Aaron Townesend, Tony Taylor... the whole nine yards of ya'll and the residents have been nice and I was glad to meet them! I was treated nicely by the staff and felt respected and enjoyed the kindness.

I just wanted to thank the staff at Huntingdon Health and Rehab for the care they gave my Mom while she was there. From the time of admission to settling in; they were always there to help- till the day she died (Labor day). Thanks to the kind, knowledgeable and caring staff Karen, Melissa, Henrietta and Kerri- there are no words to express our gratitude. No words can capture what we feel in our hearts. Thanks to the CNA's- Anastasia, Penny, Jennifer T., Eric, Tiffany and Teresa, they treated my mom with such dignity, care and compassion. I have been a hospice RN for 20 years and been in lots of nursing homes- yet the staff at Huntingdon should be the model that all nursing homes follow. The day before my mom became unresponsive I received a call from her "I love it here. Everyone is so nice!" If I have left out any one's name; I am so sorry. Thank you again! The best Staff ever!

I chose Huntingdon Health and rehabilitation for my sister based on the hospital social worker's recommendation. Barbara Melton, the therapy department, and Terry Lynch were just a few of the wonderful and loving staff that will leave a lasting impression.

I chose Huntingdon Health Center because I heard it was close and my mother had been here before and said they are the best. This place is great and everyone is family. I will miss each and everybody and I will send people to this wonderful place.

The heart Dr. from hospital recommendation this facility for me to come to and said it was the best one on the list. Everyone at the facility was really nice! Megan Morgan, Tiffany Medlock, and Laura Perrigo, really help me a lot. Food was wonderful!

Therapy News for Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation Mrs. Paula C, recently completed her therapy program at Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation and proudly reported that she would "Definitely" recommend the therapy department at HHR. Mrs. Cary also reported that everyone has been so understanding and helpful and answered all her question. Not only did Mrs. Cary receive "great" therapy, she reported that the therapy department helped her make a plan to go home. They helped me develop a plan to get well and active again after all the trauma that I have been through in the hospitals. My main goal has always been to go back home and live a peaceful life with my husband and puppy. Therapy has helped me meet all my goals. Everyone in the therapy staff was wonderful but I mainly worked with Rusty for physical therapy. Rusty even went to my home and made suggestions to help make my home safer when I get home. Even though Mrs. Cary had great things to say about Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation, she did recount that she wanted to stay safe and healthy and be able to stay home.
