Overall Review of Blue Ridge In Brookview House
common8 reviews mention this
Therapy helped residents regain strength
Residents and families describe therapy that helped them regain mobility and strength.
Multiple reviews mention meaningful rehab progress, including getting stronger enough to head home and learning to use equipment like walkers. Families also describe therapy teams as attentive and encouraging, with some crediting short timelines for major mobility gains. A few reviews frame the rehab experience as the reason they would return or recommend the facility for post-surgery recovery.

Pests and bedding issues are cited
Some reviewers report pest-related and bedding-related problems that they found unacceptable.

Staffing and call response questioned
Several negative reviews question nursing coverage, responsiveness, and consistency of care.
A handful of reviewers say they struggled to get help in a timely way, including reports of very slow call button response.
