When we relocated to the area three years ago we also moved my mother from another facility to the Life Care Center of the North Shore. It was recommended to us by an acquaintance whose aunt had been at the facility for several years. The staff was wonderful, and we feel she got more personal attention and better care than where she was before. The facility is small and lovely. It was very clean - never any odors. Mom enjoyed breakfast in the dining room, prepared by Barbara, who was very kind and knew just what mo…

When looking at a care facility for my mother I looked for longevity in staffing,were the residents clean and dressed, what activities are available, how are personal needs are met and how approachable are the staff. My experience has been positive with all these things,my concerns are met with compassion and addressed in a timely manor. My mother is not always the easiest of patrons and the staff is compassionate and honest about her assessment and care. I feel very confident that Life Care is the right choice for…

My Mom was at Life Care Center of the North Shore for 2 1/2 years. My Mom entered Life Care Center at the age of 96. Before arriving there Mom was being treated for the flu at a hospital for 8 days.

Fortunately, Life Care Center had one available for Mom to begin Rehab., I expected after her Rehab stay Mom would be able to return home, but her condition could not warranted it. The Social Worker and I discussed my options concerning Mom. The Social Worker rec…

My wife has been at Life Care Center of the North Shore for a year. I’m about a mile away from her right now, so it’s convenient and has good service there. I think the staff and caregivers are very good. She’s in a two-bedroom with a TV. They get aides that are responsible for their areas and have a nurse on the floor. They bring the food up to the patients on a tray. If they want, they have another dining area on the first floor. I would say they do their best.

My mom stayed here for rehab after having surgery. I have to say the place is secured, doors are always locked and you will need to be buzzed in and out and visitors need to sign in and out. Everyday they have different types of activities for the patients as well as someone comes and does they nails and hair. If the weather is nice you can sit outside in an enclosed patio which is very nice. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Those are the pros. Now the cons: when you pull the light for assistance it takes th…

I would not recommend this facility at all. Some of the nurses can't be bothered to follow the doctors orders caring for the patients. Why do you wait for 15-20 min for a bedpan? There should be enough qualified, pleasant staff to care for the patients. I could go on and on and I will.
