4 Star User Review
My sister discovered The Bridgeview Health Care Center through an agency. After a quick facility assessment and after having checked other facilities she choose this one.
My mother has been a resident of the Bridgeview Health Care Center for 2 years and a few months. At the time she was admitted in 2011, she was suffering from mistreatment from a nearby Center located on west 87th Street. She painful had bed sores on her right foot and had gained 50lbs. Mom was totally non-ambulatory although she had been able to walk somewhat when she was first admitted to the other Center. She seemed to be coming down with dementia (according to the doctor at the other Center) and was disoriented. She is now no longer has bed sores, she's able to walk with and without her walker. She is no longer disoriented. Her dementia wasn't dementia at all. She had had at least 5 minor stokes, but she's doing much better. She smiles a lot, she holds intelligent conversations, we are able to take her out to restaurants and family homes because now she can climb stairs. All of this is because of the excellent care she received from the Bridgeview Health Care Center. I didn't give them 5 stars because they're not perfect.
There are a few negatives: 1. from time to time we have run into issues pertaining to the physical exercise she is permitted to have in the evenings.
2. She doesn't like the food.
3. As with other health care facilities, the stall is nice but not all staff is trust worthy so attention must be given to their belongings..
