What this means for your family

Bridge View Nursing Home has a strong rehab department and some very dedicated individual staff members, but families should be aware of significant concerns regarding the facility's physical state and inconsistent care standards. We strongly recommend visiting in person to inspect the environment for yourself and asking specific questions about how they manage dementia care and weekend staffing levels.

Key Review Excerpts

The building is rundown like a dilapidated hospital straight out of an apocalyptic movie, and many staff members are unkind, unprofessional, inconsiderate, and shockingly rude.

Family member · 2025☆☆☆☆

The rehab department is phenomenal and the staff are extremely accommodating. The elevators should be replaced but other than that I would recommend this facility to others!

Long-term resident's family · 2018★★★★★

The facility is old. All staff are most retirement age. No condition for pation with dementia. All patients are walking. The facility has no accupment to take care of patients with dementia.
