Great rehab place, friendly& very polite staff, if I needed something to eat or drink they got it right away with as smile. The therapists are wonderful, i fractured my left hip on the hip & thigh that i broke 4 years before so they couldn’t do much, doctors orders that i not put weight on it so not much they could do unfortunately so Joe, JJ, Kevin, Omar, Kubare they all helped me build my back muscles and biceps that i was doing at home & gave me great workout advice & take their jobs very seriously, thanks guys for keeping up with this crazy guy, lol. Nice courtyard with a gazebo to get some air. Had a story about picking up litter that they all let me tell hoping they spread it, appreciate it, good 1 min story 😎. The activities staff Katherine the manager (greeting people with a smile),Theresa, etc. Medical records & transportation clerk Tayor,( helped me fix my wheelchair). Julia the social director (ty for lending me phone charger, life saver), Allie & others are wonderful people & anything I needed help with they went above & behold their duties. And Michael the assistant administrator, the man among men was willing to help me switch insurance companies so I could save money & stay longer for my benefit of my health, a very bright & talented Jewish man with a very bright future, thank you sir, I love the Jewish people they’ve helped me so much in the past few months. The nurses were awesome, Teri, Jen, Abby, Crystal, Johnny, Eric etc. Pax she keeps the Peace with a smile always on her face✌️My favorite would be Talor a very bright young lady with a lot of talent & passion for her work and helped me as much as she could, she fixed my wheelchair, lots of love & keep up the great work honey.Well actually their all my favorites for making me feel at home away from home. Food was great, they even got me to eat fish & they came and gave me what i liked & kept stuff i didn’t like off my tray. Thank you all for making me feel at home. Only gripe was my particular tv didn’t have ABC so I could watch Monday Night Football, or the Yes network to watch my Yankees but other tvs did but I’m sure Michael & the crew will fix it. It’s my time to leave and I’m leaving with the smile this crew put on my face 😁😇🙏✌️😎❤️

Came in after femur fracture and wasn’t sure if I’ll ever walk again, but once I met the caring staff and encouraging physical therapy team I knew I had a chance. The admins always checked up on me, the nurses were always on time, aides were always there when I needed them and can’t thank them enough. The care was outstanding! The pain management program they offered me was a success and I’m now walking again and home with my family feeling young and energetic again. Thank you Green Acres Family!

I'm so happy my husband graduated to leaving the facility. The nurses, CNA's and housekeeping were wonderful. A little understaffed at times though. The physical, occupational and speech therapy departments were top notch. Joe, the lead physical therapist, was instrumental in his recovery. The food needs to be upgraded. Healthier choices and to be served warm. My husband didn't eat many meals and lost a considerable amount of weight. I'm happy there was a refrigerator in his room that I was able to stock with edible food. Carlo, the head nurse, is an exceptional individual. He was usually available to talk with me and answer questions. I do feel the room could use a deep cleaning of the walls, baseboard and bathroom. The courtyard could use some sprucing up with new chairs. All in all, I would still recommend Green Acres to someone.

This is Jean Humphrey. I wanna say about the nurse Dawn very very kind person. Very good to the patient when she come around. I am one of her patients for the medication so she’s a very good person. Thank you for having people like Dawn to be patient with the patient themselves. I have enjoyed my stay here 2 1/2 months and ever since I’ve been here she’s always been very very kind to me and so is all the other nurses that work here thanking Dawn for what she does for me and other patients that are here appreciate it so she is one. That is a keeper. Thank you very much Jean Humphrey.
