  • I stayed in this nursing home for several years after my stroke. I got along with all of the staff and all my needs were addressed and met with compassion and care. Rikki in admissions is a rock star and always went above and beyond the call of duty.

    A long over-due big shout out to the administration, nursing staff and all the wonderful aids. My husband, a Vietnam Veteran, was admitted mid October 2025. From a smiling face who welcomes me each day at sign-in to constant conversations with the head of nursing and to the good folks on the nursing/aides team, my husband has received excellent professional care. It is a testimony to Brookside’s leadership team that has created such a positive environment. It shows each day through the good folks who care for residents with such grace and devotion to them all. It is very reassuring to know that when I cannot be here, there’s an entire team of professionals who always have my husband’s comfort and well- being at the heart of their efforts. I will never be able to thank Brookside enough for all that they are doing to help our family navigate our very difficult journey.
