Glades West Rehabilitation & Nursing Center, Miramar FL

Wonderful organization and great
People working with you, the therapist are great, the nurses very courteous and helpful and also the CNA available to help in any needs you may have. The cleaning lady is the best that you can find.

I was accepted to Glades West Rehab after having major heart surgery in Cleveland, Ohio. My stay was almost 4 weeks. I highly recommend this facility and was treated with care and compassion the whole time. From the administrators to the nurses to the physical therapy department, management and other staff, everyone was great. The facility is 6 years new, and kept immaculately clean. The rooms, even the doubles, are very big and lots of light from the windows. There are nice areas to sit outside and several lovely areas outside and inside for your visitors. They paid extra attention to the COVID situation and I was tested several times while there. The meals were served on time every day and special requests accepted.

I’ve called the facility and thanked them repeatedly for the past year. But I still had to post a review to thank them again.

When my Dad was diagnosed with kidney failure, he lost all hope, I lost hope too. I work two full time jobs, and didn’t have the time to take him to dialysis twice a week all the time. Believe me when I tell you I was devastated, and worried I had failed as a daughter.

My boss told me about Glades, he said his mother used to be a patient there and I should consider giving them a call.

Thank God I did. My dad now goes to dialysis twice a week, worry- free, in state of the art transportation. He made friends with all the nurses at Glades, and brags to me about the meals he’s getting there compared to my subpar cooking skills he got when he was home. Lol. The nurses even threw him a surprise mini birthday party during lockdown, and I was able to attend by zoom call. It was very special. The highlight was seeing my dad shed tears of joy.

I love you Dad. Thank you Glades for taking care of my Father. Thank you for treating him with respect and caring for him while giving me peace of mind. I get teary eyed when I think of all you guys do there. Not all heroes wear capes. ️

Glades West Rehab facility caters to your family needs, and ensure safety at all times. Staff members are pleasant and competent. You can rest assure that your love ones will receive the utmost therapy and medical care that he/she needs.

Excellent care and Leadership, I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a professional and compassionate staff to take care your love one.

As the daughter of an Alzheimer’s patient I can tell you that it’s not easy to take care of someone who has constant mood swings, uses aggressive behavior to communicate, as well as throws curses around the room, and would even resort to using physical force to hurt me without any control whatsoever.

When I found Glades West, it was a God sent. The nurses really know what they’re doing, they really got my Mom to calm down and had her interested in life again.

My mom, who was heavily aggressive at home, became calm and happy at Glades. She loves the PT, the nurses and the activities she’s engaged in. These professionals go above and beyond to ensure the safety of your loved ones.

Just think what it’s like to take care of one patient all on your own at home. These nurses have to deal with so many patients a day with different issues, as well as handle doctor orders and family members requests non stop.

I remember my mom had a slight fever that could’ve been ignored, but no, they called 911 and rushed her to the hospital immediately. My mom gets a shower every morning no matter what. Her CNA gets her dressed and combs her hair. She was even nice enough to send me pictures and videos of my Mom during the pandemic so I wouldn’t feel helpless about not being able to visit her during lockdown.

Thank you Glades for taking care of my mother, thank you for keeping the facility clean, thank you for trying your best every day to make everyone happy, even during difficult situations. I appreciate all of you. Thank you, the staff is one in a million.

This place has been God sent for our family, we have my mother and my brother both living at Glades. Mom has Alzheimer's and my brother suffered a major stroke. The entire staff is incredible, from the nurses, the aides, office staff, and the activity staff. They are always so helpful, totally transparent specially with the pandemic. They care so much about the residents/patients. If you have a loved one that needs a nursing home Glades West Rehabilitation and Nursing is for you. Top Notch therapist. Thank you Glades our entire family is so grateful for the work you do.

I've been in the industry for many years and theres nothing to compare Glades West with. The quality of care that is provided, the caring of the staff its what makes Glades West Rehab what it is today. I would highly recommend Glades West for your rehab needs. Call come by and see for yourself. Its 5 stars in my Book.

I have been around Skilled Nursing facilities in South Florida for the last 20 years. I think I have been in almost everyone one of them at one time or another. Glades West stands out as one of the few "5-star" facilities. From the beautiful facility, to the nursing staff there, they truly care. You must go visit the facility before making a choice where to put your loved one.

Awesome establishment staff is great and treat family members well. The administration is awesome. Thank you Glades West

I would like to comment of the experience I've had with my family member at Glades West. This is a facility I would highly recommend for any family needing to have rehab. Staff is caring they go beyond their call of duty. Their sweet to all patients and residents their treated like family. This is the only rehab I would take my family to from now on. Its Clean and no odor.

Glades west nursing home and rehabilitation center is the place to be, they treat everyone as families there, very nice and clean facility

This place is the best place to have your loved one stay for skilled Nursing care and Sub-acute Rehab. The place is always clean and the staff are all friendly. Kudos to the Rehab Staff. They are the best!

Would like to start by saying that Glades West is one of the nicest buildings in Broward County. As an employee, I witness first hand all the things done behind the scenes to ensure the well being of patients, while providing the best customer service for their family members as well. After having visited most of the other facilities in our service area, Glades West also has the most bilingual staff readily available. Which is very important in South Florida. Like Medicare, I give Glades West FIVE STARS.:)

My family and I had selected this facility because it looks clean, and the reviews were better than others. The staff had stated that we would have Facetime and visitation regularly. However, after a long week calling, calling, and asking, finally we were scheduled to see mom. To be honest, a few of the receptionists will answer the phone but transfer your call back and forth until you get tired of waiting. Mr. Rodriguez and the team worked well with my mom. They encouraged her to be more independent and discharged her as promised. Overall, the experience could be better, but we are satisfied!

I want to thanks to all the personnel that work there starting with the administration and all the nurses who are having a good care to my mother in law mirian they are wonderfull with her and they really work because they are. Doing their job very well. God bless every one of you and than you so much for be caring and. Helpful with the pacients especially in this difficult time when the family can not. Be there and is Allowed to be there with them. Blessings and dont change. Good job!

Glades west is a five star nursing facility. The facility is like a hotel. It is super clean. The staff is like a family and all work together to make sure that the patients are taken care of. The activities are like no other facility around.

I am very proud to recommend Glades west Rehabilitation Center. It is the perfect place for your loved ones to go to rehab or live there as a long term. I recommend it 100 percent.

Finding a Nursing/Rehab facility for a loved one in "normal times" can be daunting enough but during the pandemic it was especially challenging since no facility tours were possible. Thankfully we had a terrific Social Worker who mentioned Glades West.

Generally, I am not one to write reviews, but my mother taught me when someone does something nice, let them know. So here goes.

After our 92 year old dad fell and sustained several fractures in January, he spent 4 days in the hospital recovering. Within days, we were notified he needed to be discharged to a Nursing /Rehab facility for several months. That put my brother and I into a tailspin. Glades West was recommended, we looked at the reviews online and took a leap of faith.

Ken Angel the administrator has the facility running like a well oiled machine. Everyone in each department is brought up to speed on the patient and their family members. We were treated with respect and dignity at all times. We were informed of all appointments, progress and changes to his schedule. We were able to reach all departments at anytime. We were emailed updates on Covid testing and new protocols. The employees are very competent, cheerful, warm and welcoming.

Our biggest hurdle was how to get my dad his second Covid shot that was due the week he arrived. Our admissions coordinator was able to add dad to the list of patients receiving the 2nd dose @ Glades West the same day he was due so we didn't have to stress about trying to transport him to his original vaccination site. That was a HUGE relief for us.

I can't say enough good things about the staff. They have all been wonderful and caring. Dad's aide Marcia has been extraordinary. Ken even supplied dad with an Ipad! Transportation was arranged for his outside doctor appointments. Each visit went like clockwork for drop off and pick up. They even packed him lunch in a to-go cooler!

The facility is fairly new, very bright, clean and well appointed. The grounds are well maintained, just like the website photos. Looking at the complex it could be mistaken for a condo complex or a small hotel. Parking is very accessible. It is located in a very safe quiet neighborhood. It is easily accessed from I75 and Miramar Parkway. Strict Covid protocols are in place with temperature checks, mask mandates and sign in forms. While we weren't allowed into dad's room, were very fortunate we were able to have three outside visits per week through a screened in covered patio. I'm sure these visits sped up his healing process and lifted his spirits.

So there it is. Hopefully this review will make someone else's journey to find the right fit for their loved one a bit easier.
