Completed my vaccine processs at the Rec Center and I must say they have a fantastic operation, very well organized and efficient, everything is electronic to your own bar code. I’m very impressed. Great job to the staff that keeps it running so smoothly from parking attendants, registration, security, medics and nurses that make it all happen!! Thank you!

Compassion is not their name. The problem is that you can not stay overnight with your love one, and is so sad that some nurses that are really bad people they are there just for a paycheck not because their passion is helping people, just watch over your Loved ones, this is lawnwood rehabilitation center, my son was there for two weeks after a horrible accident, couldn't walk or move, it was so sad to learn that those two nurses were so mean and evil and treated him like he was nothing and on visitation hours they are smiling and nice, there's no supervisor at night time. Horrible

Very organized and sparking clean recreation area with a nice park on the side. Everyone was friendly and welcoming and we signed our son up for football season.

This is not the PAL Center. They are infringing on their Good name. This is the city of Fort Pierce and they should not do this and take down their PAL signs They evicted PAL
