Brookside Skilled Nursing Hospital

Please do not send your loved one here. My 100-year-old grandmother was placed here after a fall and almost never received her pain medication on-time. When my mom asked the nurses how they would prevent my grandmother from falling again, they said, "oh, well, there's a mat there next to the bed." My mom had to visit and check on my grandmother every day to make sure her pain meds were being delivered (which they consistently were not), and it caused my grandmother and my family a lot of distress. The nurses here are completely overworked and my grandmother did not receive sufficient care, whose condition worsened considerably during her brief stay (we relocated her ASAP into a home because of how poor the treatment at Brookside was). If your family member is placed here with no other choi

Our mom entered Brookside in November of 2022. Over the course of the 2+ years she was there, we found the staff and admin to be caring and in tune with her needs. Administrator Elsa Rodriquez was quick to respond to questions or concerns...Social Services director, Myla, as well! Mom was in her late 80s and needed much assistance due to mobility and memory issues. I do not know how one might feel if they are younger and needing to rehab with physical therapy, but we were impressed that Brookside serves as a training site for nursing students. Having students around brought some good energy. We also appreciated how the staff would provided special touches such as balloon displays for birthdays or other holidays. In fact, social director, Debbie, created beautifully themed bulletin boards

My mother has been in and out of the hospital so many times that I forgot to leave a review for this SNF. My mother stayed at Brookside for about two months. In the beginning, she was sundowning a lot and heavily taxing staff. It is truly amazing how patiently they dealt with her. Eventually, she was comfortable enough to feel safe and secure at the facility. I visited my mother every day and always saw that the facility was immaculate. They pay a lot of attention to cleanliness and organization because of their manager, Elsa. The rooms and the facilities are extremely clean. I saw that one person posted in a picture of something dilapidated. However, It is just simply not true that the facility is not maintained. The facility smells and looks clean. If you encounter housekeeping, they wil

We had a very good experience with Brookside. When we were first set to be moved here after an emergency hospitalization, we were very nervous since the reviews seemed mixed. While my great uncle was the one receiving care, my great aunt and I were the ones mainly communicating with staff. The facility was much cleaner and more updated than in other online reviews, I think they did the floors since those photos were posted. Again, this is a well maintained facility with kind and eager staff. One of the doctors said to us before we went, most of these places are the same - you get out of it what you put in. If you are cooperative and non combative with the staff most of them will go out of their way when you need extra help. Everyone was very kind and willing to help and answer questions w

If your family member is here, you’re already under stress, but the staff has proven to be professional positive and friendly. over the last several weeks, the physical therapy protocols have helped my wife make great progress towards her stroke recovery.
