What this means for your family
While the facility offers an impressive rehab gym and a high-end wellness spa, the core nursing care is a significant concern. Families should look past the aesthetic renovations and conduct unannounced visits to the resident floors, specifically asking about protocols for turning patients and responding to call buttons.

342 reviews on Google“Beth Abraham Center presents a stark contrast between its highly praised, luxury-style wellness spa and the core nursing care floor, which receives frequent, severe complaints. While many reviewers highlight the facility's aesthetic appeal and professional therapy team, numerous families report alarming incidents of patient neglect, including untreated bedsores, poor hygiene, and communication failures. Families considering this facility should be aware that while the environment and rehab services are often lauded, the quality of daily nursing care appears inconsistent and potentially dangerous.”

Key Review Excerpts
“My mother had no truck control and was sent like this twice to her appointment. She stayed in this position from the Bronx to Manhattan where her appointment was. She was sent on a cold day with thin pants and pants she had wore 2 days before.”
“The therapy team helped me get back to my baseline function and even succeeded expectations that I had for myself. From the direct care staff to the staff behind the scenes Beth Abraham Center afforded me the community and home that I needed to get better.”
“My grandmother went there to be cared for and they made it seem like it was too difficult to get my grandmother an air pressure mattress. My grandmother was not being turned ever. She developed gangrene.”
