I cannot say enough wonderful things about Belair Nursing and Rehab center. From the admissions department to Nursing and rehab . Everyone has been caring,patient ,attentive and friendly. I cannot thank the staff enough for the amazing care of my father. I would give more stars if allowed on this review.. I cannot name everyone personally for all the wonderful care but we appreciate everyone there. We would very highly recommend Belair to everyone.

An absolute amazing experience...the management and staff are all capable and treat the patients as family members. Both my parents have spent time there and were treated with nothing but respect and love and attention. My Dad spent the last few weeks of his life there and the staff kept my brother and I up-to-date about his every move. I thank the staff and pray they continue the blessed work they do on a daily basis.

I had a great experience during my stay at Belair. Everyone on the medical staff from the PA's to the RN's were attentive and professional (Pat, Victor, Renee, Russell and more). I was visited by a PA daily; keeping up with my progress and concerns. The CNA's strive to make patients as comfortable as possible. The PT and OT team (Cindy, Danielle, Dina), worked on my challenges and made it enjoyable to be in the gym. I will always recommend Belair to anyone needing care for themselves or their loved ones.

My mom needed short term rehab after a month of hospital stay. I decided to check out Belaire and very happy I did. From the director, Roseann to the front door reception; everyone is so helpful, treat you like family , and professional. All the nurses, CNA’s , PT, OT, social workers, entertainment staff- can’t say enough about them. The care and love my mom has received from Belaire is beyond outstanding. The facility is very clean, decorated for the holidays, many rooms the families can spend time visiting with their loved ones. The food is not that bad neither which is unusual for rehabs.Your mind will be at ease that your loved one is safe and being taken cared of. I recommend this facility 110 percent and would not take my parents anywhere else but Belaire if needed in the future . Thank you Belaire for a great experience!

Both of my elderly parents have been residents at Belair going back several years. My dad was a rehab patient a few times b4 he passed and my mom is currently a long term resident. I really can’t say enough positive things about the facility and the care team(s). The aides, the nurses and, PA’s are top notch as is the PT/OT team. The recreation staff always have activities on offer to engage the residents. Are they perfect? Close, but no facility can be 100% of the time. However, on the rare occasion that there is an issue, one call to the head nurse or the administrator of the facility and the issue gets resolved promptly. This is immensely important to me and to my mom and helps me sleep much better knowing she's in really good hands.
