Brookside Multicare Center Awarded a Five-Star Rating for Quality Measures by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services
SMITHTOWN, N.Y., October 31, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Brookside Multicare Center, a 353-bed post-acute nursing and rehabilitation facility, has been awarded the highest rating possible for quality measures from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS). The five-star rating for quality measures is based on CMS’s assessment of 16 different physical and clinical measures for nursing home residents, which indicate how well nursing homes care for their residents’ physical and clinical needs.
“We are honored to have received a five-star rating from CMS for quality measures,” says Eric Mendel, CEO of Avenir Healthcare Group. “Brookside is able to combine an elite-level of care with genuine compassion for our residents. This ensures that we are putting people first and meeting our high standard for excellence.”
The newly-renovated 353-bed facility is perched atop a hill, overlooking 24 acres of scenic landscape in Smithtown on Long Island’s north shore. The facility offers spacious private and semi-private rooms, several outdoor patios and dining areas that provide residents with a comfortable setting. The facility also completed a state-of-the-art rehabilitation gym among its many $8 million in renovations.
Brookside offers 24-hour nursing care, short-term rehabilitation, a long-term care unit, and more. They also have specialty services including the Petal Program, which is Long Island’s only pediatric extended and long-term care unit. The dedicated and secured unit is specially designed for compassionate care for children with extended care needs or chronic physical and/or cognitive disabilities.
