What this means for your family

Brunswick Pointe offers a physically beautiful environment and highly effective rehabilitation services that many families appreciate. However, you must be proactive regarding medication management and call-bell responsiveness; we strongly recommend establishing a direct line of communication with a specific nurse or case manager rather than relying on the main facility phone line.

Key Review Excerpts

The staff is very professional and knowledgeable. Just as important, they are kind, caring, friendly, and compassionate. My aids and nurses have done an excellent job caring for me.

Rehab patient · 2024★★★★★

I had to call three times today, for someone to respond to my mothers call light, this is after a meeting and several calls to administration about they lack of accountability and respond to patients.

Long-term resident's family · 2019☆☆☆☆

This time I would wait 45 minutes to two hours for meds. I will never come here again and will never recommend it to anyone !!!
