Resident & family reviews
4.1 · 53 reviewsI have been to Linwood twice. Each time I had a great experience. The nurses and CNA’s are the greatest. All of the staff from house keeping, physical and occupational therapy to admin are so caring and can’t do enough for you. If I need rehab again, this is where I want to be.
Had my mom there. It says they support paleteral cather online but they dont do it under staffed . Rehab was descent tho.. My mom was paying private pay and was paid up until the 30th of the month. But when we went to get her belongings from linwood her belonging were all packed up in boxes. Some of her things were not there And also her plants were just thrown in a box. Feeling furious.. I was told that they wouldn't touch her things but obviously they did soo. I feel since she was paid for the month and didn't have the room for the month we were overcharged.

A great option for anyone who needs help taking care of a loved one. The director and staff are amazing. They are truly angels on this earth. My Mom has been under their care numerous times and it gives me great relief knowing she is well-taken care of.

place was really clean and they kept my husband and his bed clean. staff was friendly and personable.
My sister has been there, physical therapy was not that good and they refused to give her a shower the whole time she was there. They claimed it was due to stitches but she received showers at hospital she was before she got there. 2 weeks without a shower anyone would feel disgusting and depressed!
My mom came to Linwood after having pneumonia. She was struggling to stand on her own and walk. From day one their therapy team had my mom walking and getting stronger every day! The aids and nurses were also fantastic! I cannot recommend this facility enough! My mom is better than she’s been in a very long time! Thank you Linwood Nursing and Rehab you guys are first class!
I volenteer tomorrow
If I could give it no star I would!! My dad was there and my family and I were not happy at all with the care! My dad passed away 21mths ago. I was so heartbroken I didn't do more for him. I've been a CNA for over 30 years, so I've seen things. The therapy dept and activities were great I have to say. But that's it!! As long as you were not long term they were ok. Most of the staff on day shift were good! 2nd shift was awful and I didn't see 3rd shift. Awful place!!
