The Nurses, Geriatric Nursing Assistants, Physical and Occupational therapists', Doctors, Janitorial Staff and Room Cleaning Staff do an outstanding job and go Above and Beyond the Call of Duty in performing their tasks.

When I first arrived here I could only move the big toe on my right foot due to a surgical issue I had. On my first day in therapy I was advised I had a attitude problem in more or less words from a occupational therapist. She was absolutely right in her assessment of me and put me in my place right off the bat which I needed. I had to slow down and listen to them exactly so I can get to the point where I am now walking and climbing stairs. Without their kind help, their guidance, and assistance I would not be where I am today. Thank you Susan and thank all of you for putting me where I am, ready to go home in 8 days. Thank you Susan for your guidance an honest assessment of me. You probably saw that Navy can do anything attitude right off the bat and set me straight. I would like to thank all the therapist both physical and occupational for their excellent work we did together. I was a little depressed when I first arrived here but I will be leaving with a very positive attitude since I can walk and climb stairs and take a shower on my own.

Again thanks to their call to duty for their patients most if not all patients leave here able to take care of themselves walk stairs and walk a mile in their shoes. Thank you all and you all deserve a Bravo Zulu which in Navy terminology means job well done.

The food is nutritious but lacks flavor due to some of the constraints on people's diets, no salt no other ingredients which I totally understand. My biggest pet peeve is the vegetables are always overcooked to the point of being soft which I also understand because most of the elderly people here can't. chew to well or don't have teeth. I just bear with it put my garlic salt and some lemon juice and olive oil which my wife brings me to put on my vegetables.
The administrative staff here are all very professional and take pride in the work they do in helping all the patients both permanent and temporary.

The recreation department does an excellent job in bringing in Talent to perform for the patients and for special occasions such as Veterans Day of which I participated with a number of other Veterans. It was a wonderful affair with music Color Guard and cake afterward.
For me it is amazing to see the care, concern, and love all the staff put into the care of the patients.

I would highly recommend. Chesapeake Future Care Rehabilitation Facility to anyone who wants to have a loved one come here for rehabilitation or if the issue is that severe and if they need round-the-clock care as a permanent residents.

Sincerely, a very pleased patient leaving here walking, climbing stairs and showering by myself Great job future Care, Bravo Zulu!!!!
