Key Review Excerpts
“The nurses, aides, and rehabilitation staff worked hard under fast-paced, understaffed, and demanding conditions, and their dedication was evident. Unfortunately, management’s reliance on agency nurses raised concerns”
“Why are most of the activities and employees being eliminated in Woodbury neighborhood?? The cheerful people who make the patients day interesting and engaging …. The “ management “ is taking away the activities and people that made brethren home our first choice for my mothers care.”
“These cottages are very well kept. Grass is always mowed new plants as requested they have garden plots for those who like to garden...a beautiful new theater w seats u could sleep in a great indoor heated pool and a well equipped gym”
