Review

Brunswick Cove Nursing Center, located in a spacious and well-lit facility, offers rooms that provide a comfortable living space for its residents. Although the nursing center has an activities director, the lack of active or mobile residents limits the range of activities available to things like drawings, coloring, and games. However, there are outdoor areas where residents can enjoy fresh air and relaxation. In terms of dining, the cafeteria-style setup is still considered nice by visitors. Additionally, the staff at Brunswick Cove Nursing Center is described as very friendly.

However, not all experiences at Brunswick Cove have been positive. One reviewer shares their disappointment with the level of care provided for their grandparents during their time at the facility in 2011 and 2017. They express concerns about a lack of attention from staff members when visiting their loved ones and frustration over issues such as delayed diaper changes. Furthermore, they highlight instances where their grandmother was given items she was allergic to despite repeated warnings. The overall impression conveyed is that care at Brunswick Cove was severely lacking.

Another reviewer echoes these sentiments by emphasizing their dissatisfaction with the level of care received by a friend who has been residing at Brunswick Cove for six months now. They mention encountering problems during visits and express concern for their friend's roommate who is blind and reportedly in a sad situation. However, they do acknowledge that after speaking with the cleaner about cleanliness issues, improvements were observed. Nevertheless, this reviewer does not rate Brunswick Cove highly and expresses unhappiness with their experience thus far.

In conclusion, while Brunswick Cove Nursing Center offers spacious rooms and well-lit facilities along with an activities director and outdoor areas for residents' enjoyment, there are significant concerns raised regarding the quality of care provided to residents. Multiple reviewers express disappointment over neglectful practices such as delayed care and allergen mishaps experienced by their loved ones during their stays at Brunswick Cove Nursing Center. These reviews serve as valuable insights into potential shortcomings that individuals considering the facility may want to take into account when making decisions about the care of their loved ones.
