My dad lived here for 8 months until his last month, when we moved him to another place to pass.

Any interaction I've had with anyone on the management side (which is where 95% of the issues were) has been rude and condescending.

My grandmother was a patient at Driftwood the staff was amazing! We had a great team of staff including Rafael who is in charge of admissions that worked with me and my family to make sure this was the right fit for my grandmother he also made sure that the transfer process was seamlessly easy and comforting for her and our family we thank everyone at Driftwood for the lovely experience.

My Mom entered Rehab on 7 liters of oxygen after 2 1/2 weeks over at Dominican Hospital, and was discharged from Driftwood on ZERO oxygen!! Not only is she off the oxygen, but she is stronger and…
