My relative stayed at this facility for almost 18 months. Some of the nurses were very friendly and capable. Then turnover occurred and my relative's care declined sharply. I mentioned my concern to the team caring for my relative, but the care didn't improve. There were times I left after visiting my grandmother worried. The overall cafeteria was OK and the additional activities were good.

Two week rehab. Male, >60 yrs. old. Stars: food 3, aids 3, LPNs 3, NP 1, MD 0, non- medical / admin. staff 2, facility maintenance 2, PT 2. Room, no heat first week, no TV second week, originally built for one bed with shared bath with a joining room. Rooms now doubles. PT limited time, frequence. My three star items reflect what is expected, as in doing your job. MD,don't recall meeting one. NP, wears white jacket, usually reserved for MDs. In first encounter, told "I need to protect my medical licence over your well being." Ninety-five percent of residents non-ambulatory.

Just ewwwwwww, patients are definitely not cared for well in dining room, totally ignored, if these people do not eat, their plate is taken away, some residents don’t know how to eat anymore, some nurses and some aids have no compassion anymore, I wish I worked their, the patients would be very well taken care of and attended to, totally disgusted there, glad my friend will be done with rehab and go home where he will be very well cared for, this place dirty dirty dirty , disgusting!! Wow 1st experience in a nursing facility and hope it never happens again

My husband spent almost 2 months in the rehab section of Briarwood. Following an unpleasant experience at another, much fancier facility in Needham, I was relieved that the care at Briarwood was very good. The staff was friendly, caring, and competent. Pushing the call button generally received a response in less than a minute. The food was institutional, with substitutions always available if the entree brought to the room was not appetizing. I enjoyed wheeling my husband to the pleasant dining room, where there were more choices and he ate better there. I was allowed to eat with him and even enjoyed shrimp on a couple of occasions. The rehab care was excellent -- 5 stars for the rehab staff. Before my husband was discharged, two staff members visited our home for an assessment and made very helpful recommendations for making adjustments which would help him live safely at home. My husband was not interested in the activities available to patients, but I noticed there were daily activities and events. The facility itself was clean and offered spaces outside the patient rooms, including a library with piano, and a sunroom with computer facilities, a large TV (patients had individual TV's in their rooms), and a coffee maker for anyone's use. This room looked out onto a pleasant patio, for warmer weather use. The primary reason I would not give Briarwood 5 stars, was the bathroom situation, with one bathroom situated between two double rooms. If a bathroom was occupied, staff would need to be called to transport the patient to another bathroom outside the room. But the very competent and helpful rehab staff, as well as respectful and attentive nursing and general staff, would rate 5 stars.

My mother rehabbed at Briarwood recently after a total knee replacement. The staff were warm and welcoming, her first day there, she was up walking for 15 minutes on the Alter G treadmill. It was amazing! She was discharged home to her second floor condo within 7 days. During her stay my father was able to join her for meals at no extra charge. This was her first time at Briarwood and would definitely rehab here again and recommend this facility to others.
