My brother was in Woldenberg Village. He was in their nursing unit for medical care. He had to have antibiotics given by IV, so he was there for that. It was a nice community - that is why I was asking about it again. Everybody was fine. I think he thought the food was OK, but my sister actually brought him food, too. The location was perfect because my sister lives less than a half mile from it. Another reason why it was chosen was the location, and it was a beautiful property. It's been there a while, but it's well maintained. They had three different sections: nursing care, where my brother was; assisted living; and a section for people who just live there and didn't really need assistance. They had names for the separate sections, and it was really beautiful. The landscaping looked really nice. Even if you're just riding by or walking by, you'll like it. It was scenic. They had a little area where you could walk, and they had a pond. They had a little sign there saying, "Watch out for the alligators," which we found interesting. Everybody there was pretty friendly, and the staff was pretty good. However, we had a situation there. My brother is an amputee, and he had severe diabetes, so he had an open wound on his foot, and part of what they had to do was wound care. They said they knew how to do wound care, but when we got there, it wasn't wrapped properly. The bandage kept falling off, and we found out that he was walking and doing things without the bandage because it kept falling off. I just happened to notice and asked him, "Why is there no bandage on your foot? You're walking around with your foot on the floor, no shoes, open wound -- that's not good." I spoke to one of the nurses about that and they sent somebody in to rewrap it. She picked up the bandage that was on the floor and was going to put that back on his foot, and I stopped her. That was a situation that was concerning there, but otherwise everybody else was pretty good.

My mom was in the SNF for several weeks. The experience there was absolutely wonderful. The nursing staff, CNAs, and front desk receptionist were always kind and professional. My mom enjoyed the nurses and the activities provided during her stay.

My husband is currently a resident of Woldenberg skilled nursing facility. I find the staff from nurses to housekeeping to food services unbelievably wonderful. They are kind, skilled, helpful, polite everything you could possibly need in a facility like this. They will go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable and content. They are truly amazing and I cannot say enough good things about this staff. This includes all staff members for every single shift. My only complaint is the actual healthcare provided by the physician on staff. He is rude, arrogant and has an unbelievable GOD complex. He needs to be replaced by a doctor with a better bedside manner and one who actually cares about the care of the patients in this facility. Again the nursing staff, wound care nurses, physicians assistant absolutely amazing! Rooms are comfortable and clean. It is truly the Ritz Carlton of a skilled nursing, nursing home and/or independent living facility. I would never hesitate to recommend this facility to anyone who needs their services.

So pleased with the care my mother received at this facility. The people who work here really do care about the patients. Not your typical nursing home. No odors and no people hanging out in pajamas. Beautiful decor and lots of premium entertainment for the residents. Can't say enough good about this place. Didn't want my mom to ever be here, but was so relieved that she was receiving quality and loving care!

What an amazing place. The staff is courteous and compassionate and it is always clean and tidy. Definitely the "Cadillac" of nursing homes. We looked everywhere and this place was our #1 choice and we are VERY happy! Highly recommend it!

Sure looks pretty on the outside and as you walk thehalls with the lovely wallpaper, expensive carpet and furnishings but this place is absolutely horrible. Poor nursing, poor quality of care, poor attitudes, I cannot believe this place is even associated with Touro Hospital where everything was exceptional. My friend is fearful that any complaints will bring on retaliation. She has only been there two days and has fallen due to a nurse just walking out on her while she was standing in the bathroom. this is total neglect. There is nothing SKILLED about this "SKILLED Care" unit.
