I brought my mom to Glenbrook to recover after a pacemaker implant and congestive heart failure and highly recommend this facility. Glenbrook is clean, well maintained and they have some amazing staff members. I am so grateful for the nursing staff who have been there for her through 2 unexpected health issues. They have some really special CNAs that go above and beyond to help her with daily living activities. The food is good and they offer plenty of activities. The PT and OT staff are exceptional and get her on her feet even when she doesn't want to move. They offer everything you need to get rehabilitated and return hom

Over the past few years I've had a series of surgeries, all resulting in the need for post-op skilled nursing and rehabilitation. I can truly say facilities are not created equally. You can simply follow my lead and know that GlenBrook Health Center in Carlsbad California is head and shoulders above the rest. The food is good, the staff is polite and the physical therapy unequivocally the best. GlenBrook Health Center is truly a Five Star facility. Do yourself a favor, pay a visit and see for yourself.

Absolute AMAZING! Best individualized care my husband could have had. Constant professional supervision by Physicians, Registered Nurses, physical therapists of all kinds, onsite Xrays plus much more! Spotless facilities, cheerful and caring staff, activities beyond fun with professional musicians, incredible meals prepared by Chef Tovar (studied at Cordon Blue!), and beautiful landscaped areas. Highly recommend it to make your recovery more expedient and happy.

Having heard good things about GlenBrook we were very happy they were able to accommodate my partner following his open heart surgery. We never expected he would have many post op complications, but the nursing staff were quick to recognize his problems as they occurred and acted immediately to return him to the hospital each time. The entire staff, medical and administrative, were friendly, caring and helpful and should one of us require a nursing facility again we would only want GlenBrook. The food is good too.

Staff are responsive to patients' needs (many being proactive in checking with the patient to determine those needs). They are professional but friendly. Glenbrook has an excellent diversified activities program that can appeal to the interests of all patients.

Raquel Carrillo, from GlenBrook Activities and Social Services, is just the best. She met with my mother at GlenBrook SNF for a routine assessment and ended up bonding with her over art, and coming up with a very creative way to share Mother's professional artwork with the GlenBrook community. Staff who are caring, and think out of the box—that's what makes GlenBrook so special.

GlenBrook Health Center is undoubtedly a reputable Skilled Nursing facility that provides exceptional care with a team of compassionate and dedicated staff members. My experience at GlenBrook has been nothing short of remarkable, and I am thrilled to share my positive review. First and foremost, the facility itself is stunning, boasting an ambiance reminiscent of a five-star resort. The well-designed layout and beautiful surroundings create a serene and welcoming atmosphere that contributes to a sense of tranquility for residents and visitors alike. From the moment you step inside, you can't help but feel the warm and inviting ambiance. The staff members at GlenBrook are the true heroes who make a difference in the lives of their residents. Their dedication and genuine compassion shine through in every interaction. The caregivers exhibit an unwavering commitment to providing top-notch care, ensuring that each resident's needs are met with the utmost professionalism and empathy. It's evident that they truly care about the well-being and happiness of those under their care. One of the aspects that truly sets GlenBrook apart is the wide range of amenities available to residents. It's not just the usual offerings you might expect; this facility goes above and beyond to provide a truly exceptional experience. From beautifully landscaped gardens and comfortable common areas to a well-equipped PT/OT room and engaging social activities, GlenBrook offers an enriching and enjoyable lifestyle for its residents. My favorite thing about GlenBrook is the strong sense of community that permeates throughout. It's evident that the staff fosters a welcoming and inclusive environment, where residents are encouraged to participate in various activities and socialize with one another. This sense of belonging and camaraderie is invaluable and contributes to the overall well-being of the residents. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend GlenBrook Health Center to anyone seeking exceptional Skilled Nursing care.

You take very good care of my grandparents. But, this new rule that we have to let you know 24 hours in advance if we plan to stay for lunch is unreasonable. I Drive more than 80 miles to visit them, I don't always know when I can do this, or how long I be able to stay. They were very embarrassed that I had to just sit there while they ate their lunch and you refused to serve me. Really, a little more appreciation for the guests of your residents would be appropriate. Refusing service because I couldn't anticipate the visit is pretty cold.

My 96 year old mom was just admitted to Glenbrook skilled nursing after a brief hospital stay. This experience and process can be harrowing, especially when one is 96. I am so grateful that my mom was accepted here - it is her second stay at Glenbrook to help regain mobility after a hospital admission. It was an evening admission and that can be difficult on mom as she is tired and stressed from being in the hospital. Mom's transfer and transition to her room was seamless and smooth. Glenbrook staff arrived to her room just after paramedics brought her in and everyone quickly moved to get mom settled and comfortable.Two CNAs came in immediately as well as two nurses.This is uncommon and does Not normally happen at most skilled nursing facilities! I must give a huge shout out to my mom's amazing admission charge nurse, Arkady. He greeted us kindly and spoke with me about medical details, daily schedules, and mom's history. (At the same time, another nurse - Jennifer spoke with mom, reassuring her and answering mom's own questions - I can't express enough how helpful this was as it made the entire settling-in process go quickly. Arkady is a very special RN. I have a medical background and have been in many hospitals across the country, meeting and working with countless RNs, including some of the best at UCSD, Rady Children's, Scripps and Sharp as well as the NIH in Washington, D.C. I can say most assuredly and confidently that Arkady is hands down one of the best RNs I have ever met. With his knowledge, patience, thoroughness, attitude, and a big welcoming smile, I can tell he goes above and beyond the call of duty for his patients and their families. He was also quick to ask if I had questions, something often overlooked. I am not easily impressed as I have met many amazing RNs over the past 30 years but Arkady truly impressed me. Wow. Thank you Arkady! I need to also acknowledge mom's two wonderful CNAs that greeted her upon arrival, Harley and Marilou. And a special shout out goes to Harley. Mom can be anxious in the hospital and rehab and he immediately got down on mom's level, spoke gently and calmly to her so she could hear him and immediately responded to my noting that mom had low vision. It really struck me how quickly he intuitively came to mom's side, reassuring her with care and empathy, especially when he showed her how to call for help (for someone with low vision it is so difficult to find the nurse's call button on the remote). Mom's call button was quickly replaced with a small plastic ball to squeeze when she needed assistance. Brilliant! This admission process, for my mom and me, is the most difficult part of any rehab stay and none of this would have been possible without Joanne, Admissions Director, who managed to accomplish the impossible of getting mom admitted within just a few hours before mom's transport to Glenbrook from the hospital. All the while Joanne was so friendly and helpful to me, dotting the "I's" and crossing every "T," as well as answering every one of my many initial questions. Without Joanne's knowledge, skill and patience this could not have happened so quickly, I am indebted. I am looking forward to mom's mobility rehabilitation with Glenbrook's wonderful Physical Therapy staff and for her to quickly recover as she is being taken care of in every possible way in this beautiful facility. There is a relaxing garden with a soothing fountain, fun activities and great dining, even a beauty salon! For the first time in months, I have been able to sleep through the night without worrying about my mom. Thank you for that Glenbrook staff and thank you for taking such exemplary care of my mom.

My dad (George) stayed at Glenbrook for several weeks and was truly rehabilitated, both in body and in spirit. He loved singing with the staff and other patients and came back to us looking younger! Thanks to all the staff at Glenbrook, a warm, clean, and safe place for our loved ones.

My husband spent four years at GlenBrook Health Center after his stroke. Both of us were pleased with the employees' exceptional caring attitudes, professionalism and kindnesses. I also recovered from knee surgery at GlenBrook Health Center. The staff was upbeat every day, very patient to answer my questions, and prepared me to be physically able to care for myself when I was discharged. I feel fortunate to have been a patient at GlenBrook Health Center!

As a Gerontologist (study of Aging) I am delighted to provide a review for GlenBrook Health Center as truly the best in the area ... and frankly beyond! GlenBrook is not only a beautiful place, but more importantly, their team/staff are caring, genuine, skilled and honestly, second to none! Sadly, that's not the case in too many places, so it's important to know what to look for when considering a care center for loved ones ... and this should be your model for comparison. I was fortunate enough to have both my 95-yr old Mom and dear friend (also 95) here for Rehab and never had to worry one day about their care! I am forever grateful for GlenBrook and hope other facilities will recognize how to do it right by using GlenBrook as the gold standard model! 5+Stars!!!

When I was at Glen Brook for six weeks, I found the staff to be excellent in there care, physical therapy, nursing knowledge and and general caretaking. The staff was friendly and went out of their way to help me whenever needed. My husband will be admitted this evening and we both feel blessed to have such a remarkably good facility near us! Thank you Glen Brook staff for all you do for your patients. I highly recommend checking them out...and the food is good too!!

Patients at Glenbrook Health Center are in very good hands. My experience with this entire team has been nothing short of stellar. Communication is excellent and proactive, this team is knowledgeable with many years of expertise. Surely one of north county San Diego's finest skilled nursing facilities. This SNF is very clean, and the team here friendly and attentive. Every interaction I've had has been positive. I'd recommend this SNF to others in a heartbeat. The Independent Living and Assisted Living and memory care areas are equally as impressive. We are fortunate to have this organization that is taking such good care of our elders in our community.

A close family member stayed at GlenBrook for several weeks. The care they received, even down to the smallest things, was excellent. Every single member of the staff was kind, capable, and compassionate. They went above and beyond on multiple occasions, working with us to find creative solutions to problems, and, despite having dozens of other patients to look after, always found time to answer questions or provide assistance. Every single aspect of their services was excellent, from the food, to the laundry service, to the nurses and nursing assistants, to the physical therapy team, to the administrative staff. The rooms are spacious and fairly private. The grounds are beautiful and tranquil and help bring patients and their loved ones a sense of peace and calm. We didn't make much use of this, but they have activities every day, and I could see how much those meant to the other residents. All that said, what really makes GlenBrook special are the people. I would never have believed this when we first arrived, but I was a little sad when we left, because I felt like I had made friends there. When you see people working so hard to take care of someone you love, you never forget it. I will never forget the people at GlenBrook for their dedication to their work. They truly make the world a better place. The results speak for themselves: in our case, our family member was well on their way to a full recovery, thanks in no small part to the excellent care provided by the people at GlenBrook. If you are in need of a skilled nursing facility, I absolutely recommend GlenBrook.

I have been a RN for 49 years and have lived in fear of ever having to go to a Snf. Those fears were eradicated upon my admission. I fell and broke bones and went by ambulance to Scripps for a few days and then to Glen Brook for rehab. The facility is clean and odor free. The staff is amazing. I was treated like everyone's favorite aunt. I never waited for someone to answer my call light. I observed the interactions among the residents and each other. Always kind and cheerful. Someone checked on me often. My dog was allowed to visit. Medication was accurate and one time. Many activities were available. The rehab department got me up and ambulatory even when I didn't want to. I bless them. For anyone needs skilled nursing, this is a wonderful place.

Glenbrook is a great place, with one exception- they don't have a quiet time policy. So, with two roommates who made noise throughout the night, one must take your own actions. If the person is sleeping with their TV blaring, one must simply go there and turn it off.

My dad came here for about a week after getting a pacemaker. This is the nicest rehabilitation center I've ever seen! The staff is friendly and helpful. It is so clean and beautifully decorated. The physical and occupational therapist are motivating and knowledgeable, the equipment is first rate. There are the usual activities which are terrific. One day they had a Hawaiian luau with entertainment, Mai Tai or Pina Colada and a wonderful plate of teriyaki chicken on a skewer, Hawaiian meatball with pineapple, a crisp warm vegetable bite and a Hawaiian roll. The weather was wonderful and the company delightful. I am so impressed with Glen Brook.

My dad was transferred to GlenBrook after a fall-relayed stay at the hospital. This facility is absolutely amazing. It looks more like a 5-star hotel than a rehabilitation facility. The staff presented as concierge style personnel, but performed medical and PT/OT at its best level. The food service was incredible. The entire staff and credentialed team were exemplary My dad hates hospitals, but he really enjoyed his stay here. I feel so grateful that he had this experienc

I found myself in an emergency health crisis with my parents wherein they both needed to move to a skilled nursing facility. From the moment of my first call to the friendly voice on the other end, I felt like GlenBrook would be the right place for my parents. When you are very stressed about a drastic life change, compassion and caring mean so much. Every single person I have dealt with at GlenBrook has been so completely helpful. Their nurse, Arkaady, has gone above and beyond in trying to help us manage their care. He is kind and patient and truly cares about the residents he is responsible for. Nursing assistant Sarah knows all my parents' personal preferences and hand feeds my dad now that he has lost a great deal of muscle control. And, you would not believe the food at this place! My parents are eating so well! They frequently say the food is "so delicious" and "excellent". I cannot say enough good things about this amazing facility. I know I made the right choice for my parents. I feel they are well cared for. I highly recommend GlenBrook Health Center.

Glenbrook Healthcare Center is one of the best Skilled Nursing Facilities that I have seen. I am always greeted by very professional and caring staff. Many of the patients that I have seen and spoken with are clean, happy and tell me that their stay there has been excellent. I have been working in the Senior Care and Housing industry for over 10 years and always refer Glenbrook Healthcare Center to the families that have/need this type of service/care.
