My father has been residing over a year now at Meadowbrook facility . The harsh reality is that he never saw a nursing home as his final dwelling place and myself never imagined he was going to end up long term care here or in any facility . Hard times and sad but you have to live one day at a time and with the cards you are dealt . Having said that this facility Meadowbrook has been nothing but amazing when it comes to the care and empathy given to my father . ( who also can get annoyed as easily as he can laugh ) but the staff here really are amazing . From the first receptionist to Atara . on through Jen at the nurses station then can’t forget the nurses and aides ! and therapists ! Professional and caring . And I am grateful and so is my father . But I can not end this without a big shout out to Miranda who runs the activities/ lunch fun ! This person ..on my fathers birthday when I asked if I can bring some family members .. well she set up the private room with balloons and table cloths to match his favorite team colors ( Mets ugh n Knicks yay ! ) ! anyway not only that .. she gave him a hat and card in gift bag . I can teardrop again now . It was beautiful . She is a beautiful person not just for that but constantly trying to keep my father interested and moving . ! She is everything right about this business of nursing homes . Really the whole staff .. the social workers ( shian n her office ) all of them I feel deserve to make a million dollars for what they do . But you can tell they care more about elderly people than anything else . So to all at Meadowbrook thank you for making a tough situation a little softer . and for probably the 50 th time .. Thank you Miranda . ! Oh my dad also misses Bernadette his first nurse/aide who really was a major help to my father with her care and empathy when he newly arrived … that what she does you just can’t learn in school . It. is in the heart . Lots of heart in Meadowbrook .

I had such a pleasant experience at Meadowbrook respiratory center. The staff was friendly, professional, and made me feel comfortable from the minute I walked through the door. The doctors and respiratory therapists were very knowledgeable and took the time to thoroughly explain my condition and treatment options in a way that was easy to understand. The level of care and attention I received really resonated with me. The team truly listens to your concerns and works with you to develop a plan. The facility was clean and appeared to be well maintained. I can't thank the staff enough for helping me with my recovery.

My family and I cannot thank the team at Meadowbrook enough for their steadfast care and skilled services. The staff showed such kindness and compassion toward my mother, and it meant so much to our entire family to know she was in such capable hands. We are truly grateful for the attention, professionalism, and genuine concern they showed throughout her stay. Thanks to their dedication, her experience in temporary rehabilitation was a positive one. We would not hesitate to recommend Meadowbrook to anyone in need of short-term rehabilitation services.
