EncompassCare has been that partner for our facilities and has totally transformed our patient experience by driving our results today and into the future. EncompassCare has become a vital part of our family that makes impactful impressions to those we serve.”

“My future looked very dark, very bad, but you would show me there was hope for a better day ahead, and you were right. Erin, you gave me hope for a new life. Not many people in their lives can say that, but you can. I can speak again, all because of your hard work and faith in me.”
— Ron D.

“I just want to say thank you for the great care I received during my stay at St. Catherine’s
recovering from surgery. Everyone was so kind and helped me with everything I needed. I met a lot of new people and renewed some old friendships. You have a wonderful way of making the world around you a happier place for everyone.”
— Bev D.

“It has been my good fortune to be treated by the rehab department of St. Catherine’s Manor of Fostoria, Ohio. From not being able to dress myself at age 84, I am now totally independent. I highly recommend them to you.”
— Charles S.

“My experience at St. Catherine’s was good. I was treated well, and the therapy I received helped me to return to the active lifestyle that I enjoy.”
— Wilber E.

“I suffered a severe stroke. I had asked 2 doctors in Toledo how bad my stroke was and they told me it’s as bad as it can get. My right side was totally paralyzed, I couldn’t eat, drink, breathe, or swallow correctly. Erin worked with me for 3 72 months to get my speech, eating, breathing, and swallowing back to normal. What she was able to do for me was nothing short of a miracle.”
— Ron D.

“A resident soon learns to follow instructions and do the best you can because all the therapists have your best interests in their hearts and minds. They also listen to each resident and do their best to improve their health and get them ready for the future. Above all else, I enjoyed each therapist’s sense of humor and the interest they displayed in each resident’s improvement.”
— Jean M.

“I’d give therapy an ‘A’. It was great! My therapist helped me make a memory book, and it has helped me remember my childhood memories and family.”
— Don L.

“Therapy is my favorite time of day!”
