Long Term Care

For many elderly individuals and their families, long-term care is the only safe and feasible living arrangement. Woodbriar understands the difficulty and challenges that accompany such a decision, and has the staff and sensitivity to deal with the inevitable issues that arise.

The core of a long-term care program is the nursing staff. Woodbriar's nurses and nursing assistants are carefully recruited and trained. They meet and exceed all of the state, standards as well as those of the Joint Commission of the Accreditation of Healthcare Organization (JCAHO). Woodbriar is proud to rank among the top of Massachusetts nursing home ratings with a deficiency-free survey from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.

The key to the extraordinary quality of the nursing program at Woodbriar is the stability of the staff. The turnover rate among nursing staff at Woodbriar is lower than that of most long-term care facilities. This is due to the careful recruitment and training of patient care staff and the environment of dedication and caring which Woodbriar has created and nurtured.
