What this means for your family
Brookhaven is highly regarded for its rehabilitation outcomes and vibrant social atmosphere, making it an excellent choice for short-term recovery. However, because recent reviews have raised concerns about aide responsiveness and daily care consistency, we recommend asking specifically about current staffing ratios on your loved one's unit and how they handle call-button response times.
