“This is the best run facility I have ever seen. Everyone on staff was caring to every resident.”

- Linda Engels


Thank you for considering Rest Haven South as a home for your loved one. We provide excellent care for each resident by creating an environment characterized by loving Christian concern, high quality nursing staff, and a dedicated administrative team.

It is our desire that each facet of an individual’s life be addressed to encourage that person’s optimum functioning. God has made us as whole people. Problems in one part of life invariably affect the other parts. We cannot segregate the physical care of a resident to care for physical needs only. We give more than just good nursing care. We also want the resident’s mental, emotional, and spiritual well being to be as positive and healthy as possible. To meet this standard, we provide a balanced social events program and many other services as outlined in the resident handbook.

Rest Haven South is necessarily rather complex to understand because we work to minister to the whole person and their family.All of us, family, resident, and staff, must work to seek mutual understanding.
There are many emotion-laden issues to be faced when placing a loved one in a nursing home. Please feel welcome to talk with us about any concerns you may have.

Thank you,

Evelyn Hanna
