The Best Nursing Home Communities in Brevard County, FL

"The staff at AVANTE have made placing our mom in a rehab the best experience. In just one week the staff showed me how to care for her when she returns home. We previously had home health nurses who never once showed me how to properly care and move and help my mom get stronger. The staff at AVANTE did so much in just a weeks time. The PT and OT staff are working so hard with my mom. She is getting stronger by the day. We are looking forward to her returning home. The nurses have been tentative and loving everyday. You never have to search for a nurse. They are always right next to your room. The staff around the facility have been kind, genuine and very helpful. The cleaning crew is always in my moms room making sure everything is just right. We've been grateful for the staff, especially the CNA's who have been teaching and guiding us. The care our mom is receiving at AVANTE has been wonderful and we would recommend them."

"I had an elderly friend that was admitted to this facility. During his stay his health steadily increased to a point that he had not known for years. The facility Staff were wonderful and easy to speak with. They always responded to any needs he had and developed a special relationship with him while under their care. I am so thankful for all they did for him. This gave me much comfort to know his needs were met. He loved his smoking times with his friends. Thank you to all the Staff. Thank you administrators and Social Workers, nurses and nurses assistants. "

"I stayed in the Encompass Health Sea Pines Rehabilitation Hospital for rehab. It was a little more on the older scale, but kept up fine. The staff weren't as active with the patients. The food was bland. I'm using a little bit of spice in it. My room was a little smaller than what they had at the other facility, and like mine didn't have the windows. I had physical and occupational therapy there, and they were good."

"My mom moved to Melbourne Terrace Rehab Center. She needs special help like bathing and taking care of personal needs, and they fit everything on the bill. It's truly skilled nursing care. Her vitals were taken several times a day, and they administered her medications and everything by registered nurses. They had doctors there and it's everything that I wanted to come together for her. The staff was very friendly, respectful, patient, and very professional. The food is very good. She eats well every day. They have activities every day. She can either participate or not as she wishes. They accept Medicaid as full payment."

"My mom is in the Huntington Place. I like the nurse-to-patient ratio and the service is excellent. The dining area and the food are both great. The rooms are clean. They treat you like a family. "

"I want to take the time to give thanks and praise to housekeeping. They work very hard every day and rarely get a thank you. I have been a resident here since May 2nd, 2025 and one housekeeper in particular has been a true blessing. Her name is: Judith. She does a wonderful job. She always has a smile and she brightens my day. I wish everyone here would have her joy and her commitment to helping the residents here. Thank you Judy, I pray God blesses and prospers your life. Thank you for the joy you bring to others. Keep up the great work"

"I have been here recovering from covid/pneumonia and I have received exceptional attention and care from the nurses, Terry, Alecia, and Gwen. I can't thank them enough. The physical therapy group have also been great , Neal, Geoff, Tiasha, and Mandy."

"Mom has been having physical and occupational therapy at Anchor Care and Rehab for two months. Mom got well enough to come home, and it was good. They have bingo, their food was awesome, and whenever she didn’t like what they have, they would offer her whatever she wanted. They were very accommodating, and I would recommend this facility. "

"I was petrified to go after leaving the hospital. I needed therapy as I had not walked in over a month with respiratory problems I wasn't familiar with any of the hospitals or Doctors having just moved to FL from Phila. My daughter chose this facility and it was an absolute home run. I shared a room with an older women, who was really sick and didn't speak English. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. There qwereq games for the patients which I did not partake, after PT for most of the day, I would have my dinner, maybe have a little nap until my visitors arrived. You can have your lunch outside with your company, if it wasn't too hot or in the very comfortable dining room. I happened to be there during the month of Dec and had a Christmas Party and dinner. Every resident got a gift. I got a vert pretty housecoat. What a nice surptise. There is a hairdresser who comes, I thunk twice a week."

"My father picked this place and I was not happy because of the reviews. I was pleasantly surprised at the wonderful care he got. He loved everyone, especially the head nurses, but all of them. The building is very old and needs renovated. I expect that is the reason behind bad reviews. It could use some sprucing up and many people form first impression opinions. He loved his therapists and his nurses. Care is more important to me than a nice building. The rooms are big but do not have private showers. They share a bathroom with the room nextdoor like many hospital rooms. You can tell staff are very busy but they still were attentive and kind. When he returned to his surgeon he was told his incision looked great. He said his doctor was a young man who listened instead of rushing. He also told me if there is ever a time he has to live in a nursing home this is where I should put him. Okay, dad, okay. You were right and I was wrong. "

"My husband was at Life Care Center Of Palm Bay. He was there for three and a half months. It's beautiful. The outside and the inside were well-kept. My husband was in a private room, which was perfect. Then he went to the hospital, and when he came back, they were so busy and they had so many patients, he had to go in a room with another patient, but it worked out okay. My husband was in physical therapy every morning. He was in OT during the day. The dining room was wonderful. The meals that they served were perfect. And because he's on a special kind of high-protein diet, they did their very best to keep him on that type of a diet. The food was wonderful. I was glad to have lunch with them every day. It was very good. As for the staff, I can't say enough about them. The night crew wasn't as great as the daytime crew, but they were just so wonderful, and they were there to help. On the weekends, because a lot of times they didn't have a full staff, which made it tough, I would do everything for my husband, and they were very appreciative of anything that I did. They were wonderful with activities. They kept my husband busy. They had all kinds of programs going on during the day. When he was able to finally get in his wheelchair and get down to the activity room, he would be down there doing things. We would go out and sit in the garden, too. They had different programs come in to entertain them. They had services on Sunday for them. Insurance paid almost all of it, so we didn't have much that we had to pay out of pocket."

"The staff has been great, from Lisa on the front desk to Hannah and Maranda in the office. The Nurses, the CNA's everyone I have interacted with has been exemplary."

"My mother is in Royal Oaks Nursing and Rehab Center. They're very clean and neat. They give a lot of attention to their residents, and I like their willingness to work with the family. And I like that they notify the family of any changes. My main reason for choosing it is the appearance and cleanliness, the friendly staff, and proximity to where my dad lives, so he can visit my mom. It's beautiful. My mom doesn't really participate, but they have a calendar full of stuff all the time. I see a lot of their residents participating and enjoying it. Value for money is pretty good. I believe all of it is too expensive, but it's no more expensive than any other place. They need to improve on the weekend staffing, but she has been getting good care. There have been some things that I've had to correct call them out on, but I don't feel like it's intentional. Communication is not always good between the patient and the nurse. There have been a few issues, but overall they're very good."
