My niece was admitted there on yesterday. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, I believe I pretty much met everyone that will be helping with her rehab. Since she will be there for a little while, I want to take this time and Thank You in advance for all that you are about to help my niece overcome. Praying God’s Blessings and Love upon you all.

From the beginning of our journey here at Meadowbrook it has always been very welcoming. My fiancé is in the TBI section and loves his day to day conversations with the Cna’s and nurses. The staff are great at what they do and love to try their best to make the patients stay better. I feel at ease knowing he’s in good hands

We could not have been happier with Meadowbrook Rehab in Gardner. We didn't know what to expect in such a situation, but the level of attentive care, compassion for both my mother and our family, accommodations, clear and consistent communication, and genuine love shared by every single member of their staff far exceeded anything we could have hoped for. At all times, I felt that my mom was in a safe, clean environment with capable care providers. They immediately felt like family and we will miss working with them. THANK YOU to every single person who cared for my mom during her stay.
