We are still inpatient right now and upon reading all of the one star reviews I cannot agree with any of them that put this place down. My husband has a severe brain injury along with multiple amputations and they believe in him when no one else did. The nurses and techs are amazing and treat him like family. The therapists work Patiently and diligently with him and expect the most out of him. The place is clean and is such a hopeful atmosphere. We ve been here over 4 months and while I miss home so much my husband is right where he needs to be. They ve taught me so much so when we go home he is going home and not into a nursing home. My husband was in an LTAC facility for 4 months before Craig so I saw what overworked was there and consequently how patients fared poorly because of it not the case at Craig. We are glad to be here and would recommend this place if someone had the misfortune of needing such a facility.

We felt so fortunate that my son was able to rehabilitate from his motorcycle accident at Craig. I can t imagine having a better experience anywhere else. My son arrived at Craig just over a month from his accident date. He had a serious TBI with very limited mobility on his left side. The staff was attentive, friendly and vey professional. We worked with a great team of therapists who coordinated together his recovery. He was walking and talking in no time! Their program is structured such so the patient improves daily. The rooms are comfortable (except for the recliners. They are the most uncomfortable chairs ever.) and roomy. The food is probably better than average hospital food. The equipment is state of the art and he loved the warm therapy pools. We loved all our nurses and techs. It was almost (almost!) sad to leave. I would be hard pressed to find any place better to recover from a TBI or spinal injury.

I was in a motorcycle accident, it was a hit and run, and am a t-9 paraplegic. Craigs hospital refuses to have me or help me rehabilitate because of my mental health history.
It has been nine months and I'm still dependant on people to help me because I cant find a rehab to help me learn more of how to be independent. I am 37 years old and live in a nursing home. Thanks Craigs Hospital, for showing your sympathy towards people with mental health problems.

I was in a severe accident. I was extremely injured, including brain injury, and a five broken vertebrae. This is, by far, the best hospital I have ever seen! They are great at what they do, and they actually care! The facility is very nice, including an apartment building they use like a hotel for your loved ones visiting. It is nice!
I have seen hospitals all over the nation, through family injuries, and illnesses. NONE of them begin to compare! Even out in DC, the hospitals there don't touch Craig. Other hospitals should try their best to be more like Craig! They make good food too! Always have a tech with you, as long as you need it! What a beautiful place! What amazing people work at Craig! I couldn't have asked for a better hospital, doctors, nurses, or techs! I consider myself very lucky to have been there! I was there for just over 3 months. They still care how I'm doing! What an amazing, fantastic place! Thank you for making so much injury liveable, and having such a great staff! Craig rocks!

My son is being treated at Craig for a TBI. While my son was at his previous hospital and we we given the opportunity to take him to Craig, we were told all the wonderful things they do. The therapy itself for the patients is wonderful but everything else was vastly overstated. We were repeatedly told it was very family friendly and family oriented and we have yet to see all of that. The therapist allow you to join sessions but then I was told to just take care of myself and let them do their job... I'm his mother, I'm going to be there. I was also told I couldn't spend the night with my son in his room... which I wasn't asking, I was letting them know I was doing it, I'm his mother, that should never be questioned as far as I'm concerned. We heard that Craig was consistent and efficient and we have also not yet seen that. There is definitely a lack of communication around here. And not really any straight answers unless you ask the same question a number of different ways. Again the therapist have done great things with my son, but you need to be extremely patient to deal with some of the "procedures" around here.
