North ridge health care people treated me with great compassion, care and joy. I would single out Naomi and ethenis in particular as making sure I received my medicines and food on time. If afood on my tray was not what I ordered, they notified the kitchen and made sure I received the food that I liked. Naomi and Ethenis spared no expense in ascertaining all my pati needs were provided for, and always had a joyful smile whenever they were with me. In otherNorth bridge was always clean

It was early last year, my brother's Birthday was in several days and he was in the Mental Health System. I spoke with him daily and saw him weekly. He went to the ER for a medication issue.
"This is Dr. Savage. Your brother is here in the ER with Covid-19 pneumonia. We expect him to perish tonight."
"What??" I said. He repeated his words. "Oh no, he's not!!" I replied.
The nightmare...and fight began. We only have each other and I was determined. Day was night and night was day. How do you interrupt these warriors helping so many? But he was alone, and he was my brother.
The weeks are blurry

My father has been at Northbridge since 2018. The facility is clean, nurses and aides are compassionate and caring. The commuication there is professional, friendly and engaging. With what is going on right now with the COVID-19 crisis and on top of it, taking care of elderly patients can be incredibly trying. Northbridge has been stellar to my father!

The most disrespectful, unprofessional, hostile, angry, unfriendly, non-compassionate, lazy, and bitter Carribbean women work this facility. I WOULD NOT SEND a stray dog here. These people did not bathe my father, change him, or assist him. They shift blame and responsibility. They are extremely lazy. I’ve literally complained every day (multiple times a day) to nursing supervisors and Director of nursing. Awful facility. Do not go here. And we neee to consider the qualifications for becoming a cna or lpn because this place hires any and everyone regardless of character, quality, work ethic,

My mom has been in this
place since August , they always call me for payments of almost 1 000 monthly , but they dont change my moms sheets in her room. They dont mop or clean the floors . They serve her food with black pepper and they hive her pears . She is highly allergic to this . I notify them on a daily basis and they dont correct this ... seriously thinking on changing her to a better place ... My mom means something to us , even if to them she is just a number .

I truly LOVE this place. My father was transferred here in 2018 from another short term rehab that was not a pleasent experience and now he will staying for long term care. I can’t say enough about Northbridge and their staff; my dad has made so much progress here and I believe that Northbridge gave a piece of my dad back to me that I never thought I would see again! Everyone has different experiences but believe me when I say this place is the real deal and nothing short of amazing. Every single person I run into there daily always welcomes me with a smile and something nice to say about my

I’m an employee of Northbridge healthcare and recently my dad has had some life-threatening issues . I brought my dad to Northbridge for rehab therapy and I couldn’t be happier with my decision . The administrator, the staff, residents and their families have been so supportive. This is a difficult journey for me to go through with my dad. My brother questioned why I chose Northbridge healthcare And i told him it’s not just because I work there it’s, because they deliver great services, it’s clean, neat and very efficient and delivering therapy services . After my brothers first initial
