Meet Rose!🌹🌟

Rose is currently here at Westwood Specialty Care for a little while as she receives therapy to help her get stronger 💪. She is incredibly sweet and always brings a smile to everyone she passes. You can often find her rolling through the dining room with a big smile on her face, brightening the room wherever she goes. 💖

On special days, Rose’s smile gets even bigger when her family brings her dog, Molly, in for a visit 🐾. When asked what she loves most about Westwood, Rose shared that it’s "all the friendly smiles throughout the building" that make her feel so welcome.

We are so happy to have you with us, Rose! 😊
