My dad was a patient at the rehab after contracting COVID in January 2021. We were not able to visit him and it made everything so much harder. Director of Russian program, Alla Volkova made the best out of this difficult situation. Her willingness to provide help , to be patient advocate when relatives can’t be, her understanding of what families are going thru during this pandemics are very commendable. It makes life of patients and their families tolerable during these uncertain times.

Our mother had Alzheimers for several years at home. She was 90 years old and unfortunately we thought we were doing the right thing by having her go into a nursing home. WRONG! or at least BRIARLEAF was wrong as far as some of the nursing care went, as far as the nursing assistants went, and the food was just plain awful. There were not enough nurses/employees to take care of the patients. If patients were loud, were somewhat disruptive, didn't want to leave their room, or just not want to do what they wanted them to do or go, they made them. Our mother actually had a severe cut on her arm that she sustained while being pulled out of her room by her doorway. Yes, guilt set in. So, we made sure at least one of her daughters and other relatives were with her almost every day and evening. Even the 3-11 shift didn't really do anything but give out water to each room at 10PM for the following morning. So it sat all night. Then they would sit and doze or talk and laugh. So real help to the patients. I believe other negatives that occurred there as well. I would never, ever, place any of my relatives in Briarleaf Nursing Home.

This place is a hell hole, the staff does nothing but sit and talk with the other staff. The patients look like they're sitting in their own shit
Ask me recommend this place and I will say no way. I went to see my mother there and it took me 2 1/2 hours to get there and I got lost twice. The nursing supervisor was very rude as well as the nurses. THIS PLACE STINKS.😠

this place would get no stars it is the worst place and i feel bad for every resident that has to stay there . very rude to the point where they get in your face and tell you they are doing everything right,they do not clean there patients well at all to the point where it leaves rashes and open soars,not letting patients get up and stretch to the point where they get bad bed rashes ,I've personally got into arguements with staff for not doing what they are supposed to I feel sad that my own grandfather has to be in this place , there are 3 nurses to every 20 to 30 people , L and I needs to get in this place because it is the worst, no where near staff friendly, watched an elderly man urinate on the floor and proceed to do more and fell and banged his head the hardest i have ever seen ,it took me 5 min to find someone to take care of the matter the doctor told me he could not do anything to find an aid to help and they argued with me before helping him first because I was irate at their very very poor staff that does nothing .the patients are better off taking the fake nurses jobs ,sick of this horrible place and someone needs to get in here and hire more staff and get rid of the ones that care less about the patients .......This place should not even get a piece of a star. This is the worst place EVER!!!! Also this place is very unsafe because if there was ever a fire there would be no way for everyone to get out!!!!!! It is also so hot inside of here that my family and I were sweating beyond belief and there is no fresh air to breathe.
