“The Physical Therapist, Shaina, and the Occupational Therapist, Robin, at Fresh River Healthcare are a terrific team who, in four short weeks, will lead the way to making your daily living goals incredibly easier as well as helping you work on and achieve your long term goals. They will show YOU how to get back to being in charge of your body! Shaina and Robin focus on the things you CAN do, and they strengthen your mind and body to boost your confidence in the things you THINK you cannot do. You'll be pleasantly surprised at how much progress you will actually make and how it will be visible to yourself and others. I hit the jackpot when I discovered Fresh River Healthcare facility accepted outpatients in their rehab program. My experience at Fresh River was excellent, and I highly recommend them to anyone seeking quality rehabilitation services.”

I know that I am going to have more surgeries due to my disc in my back and neck. I am sure I will be returning to Fresh River for my care and treatment. A very good place to heal and get stronger. Fresh River gave me the strength to move on with my life through the programs they have.”

“Thank you for setting the bar high and believing in mom. I wish all PT's had the patience and faith in their patients that you obviously did. I know her therapy was challenging at times, but you all did a tremendous job with her. I know being with you was her favorite part of the day and I thank you for that. Thanks to all others who helped mom. I didn't always know your names, but your work did not go unnoticed. I know she was in good hands.”

“I appreciated everything. The nurses and the aides are so kind and caring. They would talk to you. I actually miss the place. I would recognize the nurses: Kara, Rosa, and Elise; and the CNAs: Becky, Bonnie, and Mary Lou. I would recognize Robin and Dawn, in physical therapy. They are all super good in physical therapy. I would tell them it is a great place to go. The food is delicious and they are Johnny-on-the-spot when you push the button.”
