My husband was in a nursing home at Sarah Brayton Nursing Care Center. We've always been very happy with the services there. My husband enjoyed being there. He liked the service. The food wasn't bad. The nurses and aides were very pleasant. The staff was excellent. The facility was old, but it was clean, so that was the important part to me. They have therapy rooms, and they have accommodations for therapy.

While the majority of staff -- nurses, aides, PT and OT -- were very nice, the overall management was horrendous. There was no cohesion between the departments at all. One hand did not know what the other was doing. It was quite clear that the staff was overworked, there simply were too few nurses trying to care for too many patients. I'd ask for my pain medication and sometimes would not receive it for over an hour later. Again, the nurses simply had too many patients that they were trying to deal with. There were many other issues as well. The mismanagement went all the way down to the kitchen leaving certain food items, that were supposed to be included in the meal, off the tray when it was brought in. I could go on but you should be warned: THIS IS A VERY POORLY MANAGED INSTITUTION!!!!

I worked as a volunteer early summer. I was welcomed by staff and patients. My interaction with patients was excellent. Many above and beyond services for the patients we’re totally professional

I am very upset, being the fact that my Aunt has Congestive Heart Failure and the head of the beds only adjust to a limited level due to the fact their sooooo old!!! I was informed my aunt's bed was broken and it was less than 24 hours from her arrival!!! Why was she even put in it then?? In addition, whenever I required assistance regarding my terminally ill aunt, its been on average at least 15 minutes or longer before an employee would enter the room. Basic articles such as a basin were not provided upon my aunt's arrival. All require individual requests when you find the article is needed and not available upon arrival. I did experience expressed compassion from a few of the employees thank god.

Do not use this facility.. There is no case management to review patient goals and objectives. The NP does not communicate and provide any data to help the family in any way. It appesrs the PT and OT only use their checklists to evaluate and do not listen to any other objective. Discharge was not based on safety of the patient but on other reasons.

They almost killed my uncle...do NOT use this place! They canceled the ambulance to bring him to the hospital, because they have their own. He had to wait 45 minutes to get to the hospital where they found he had a fever and double pneumonia. They told us he did not have a fever and told him his was being a baby for complaining about pain. DO NOT USE THIS PLACE!

I like the nursing care at Sarah S. Brayton Nursing Center best. They have RNs, LPNs, and doctors on the staff the majority of the time. My mother's room has a bathroom and it is a shared facility: two people to a room. The food is very good. They have their own chef and everything. They have a dining area and a community area. She is going through physical therapy. I like their attentive nursing staff the best.

My experience was good.The nurse's were all very helpful and caring.They served fairly decent meals every day, with good sized portions.They had games and activitys for them to keep busy during the days.they treated him very well compared to other places he has been in.They had transportation vehicles to take him to his appointments when need be. visiting hours were very good, i could go and see him as i pleased..The only negative thing was they kept moving him from room to room and he couldnt just settle in one room. I would recommend this nursing home to others in the future as they did a very good job overall with the patient and his family.. All in all i give sarah brayton a thumbs up.
