Woodbriar Health Center

We visited many nursing homes looking for a home for my Dad with advanced Dementia. We could not care for him any longer at home as he required 24 hours a day care and special facilities and equipment we did not have at home. We are very pleased with the care my dad received at Woodbriar Health Center. He was always clean and shaven and comfortable, and the personnel who cared for him were compassionate and patient with him and everyone else they care for. It takes a very special person to care for people with Dementia, and the staff we met at Woodbriar are very special. My dad passed away recently after battling this disease for years, and I would like to thank the staff at Woodbriar for making my dad comfortable thru this end of life experience. We will always be grateful for your e

It has been a pleasure to be at a wonderful facility which I have been receiving great quality care. Therapist and I have been working hard to reach my goal and get me home safely. I have met some amazing, hardworking people who enjoy helping others. Being in a facility is no fun to say the least but having a concierge come in with a cheerful persona and constant smile, it has been uplifting and has made my stay that much better. Nurses and nursing assistants have been here for me the whole way and encourage me to do my best at whatever task I have in front of me. Everyone I have encountered with is a great asset to this facility. If I need be to come to a rehab facility Woodbriar would be my first choice from experience.

Do you think you would be unable to communicate and like your foot stuffed into your sneakers while wearing your nonskid hospital socks, making marks in your feet and have a family member discover it? Would you like to be cold, have a closet full of sweaters and have no one bother to put one on you? Would like like to be served your food 20 minutes late and then have it taken away because the patient sitting next to you keeps grabbing things and there is no one to watch them because the facility has decided to have the aids get the plate from a heat cart and serve patients instead of watching you. Would you feel safe leaving your mother in a facility that leaves a room full of patients alone because they have to transfer patients and no supervision left behind? Would you like to have other

My time spent there was a nightmare. It is unmistakable that their primary concern is to maximize profit and provide the minimum level of care possible in doing so. One example is the food. A typical example would be a supper of a cold wimp grilled cheese sandwich accompanied by a few tater tops. I experienced the head of Nursing verbally berating a worker in a loud and angry tone because she was caught looking at her cell phone for another job. They were always short-staffed and you could ring for assistance for an hour without a response. Stay away from this place. It is laughable to read some of the positive reviews. I have to believe that the management of this place put these things on there. The positive reviews can be nothing but lies

Woodbriar is now Advinia Care Wilmington. My father was there for rehab for a month and died there. I could never recommend this facility to anyone , and deeply wish we would have chosen another facility.
