My father was in Mt. Carmel Bluffs nursing care for only a very brief time before his death. In that short time, however, our dad (and our family) was treated very compassionately and professionally by every staff member we encountered. We were so thankful for the care our dad received. Mt. Carmel Bluffs is an extraordinary facility.

"Sarah Rentz gave my friends and me an incredible tour of Mount Carmel Bluffs, and I can truly say this facility is a hidden gem. Sarah was exceptionally knowledgeable and took the time to answer all our questions. I was particularly impressed by the beautiful rooms and the high staff-to-patient ratio, which gives me great confidence in the level of care provided. The entire staff seemed genuinely caring and dedicated. I am sincerely hoping my friend will be able to call this wonderful community home!"

We moved into our independent living apartment at the beginning of August. We really love our spacious turret apartment. The views are lovely and we have plenty of room for all our things. The staff at Mount Carmel Bluffs is wonderful. Everyone is welcoming and very helpful. We feel that we certainly made the right decision to move here!
