Apple Rehab Uncasville exemplifies the company’s core values. COVID-19 left staff traumatized and caused many healthcare workers to leave the workforce. We remained committed to our residents both short- and long-term.
Our team members worked together to continue to have favorable outcomes and meet our residents’ needs.
Over the past year, Apple Rehab Uncasville has rebuilt its staff, increased its occupancy, and improved the overall morale of the building, creating a more positive work environment.
