    About Briarwood Health Care Center

    Briarwood Health Care Center, found at 1440 Vine St. in Denver, CO, is a nursing home that people often know for both long-term and short-term rehabilitation care. The facility provides skilled nursing, rehabilitation therapy, long-term care, and memory care, with care plans shaped together by families, staff, and doctors. Folks live in a place that's made to feel cozy and home-like, with comfortable living areas and well-landscaped gardens, and they also can find a west lounge up on the third floor and a west building entryway. The staff offers 24-hour skilled nursing and has an in-house team of nurses and therapists who work together to help each person meet their own goals, with an emphasis on returning home or rejoining their community if possible. The average number of residents is around 79 daily, out of 201 certified beds, and nurse turnover is a bit lower than the state average. Staffing hours per resident are above what most Colorado homes offer.

    Briarwood provides both inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation services using modern equipment and therapy tools, and the team tries to support patients of all ages with physical, occupational, and speech therapies. The center also offers programs and information about mental health, elder abuse, fall prevention, and more, plus tools like symptom checkers and a health library. It has state and federal funding support, and you can find community resources, health education, and activities information. The staff includes nurses, physicians, social workers, dietary team members, and activities coordinators. While the home emphasizes dignity and involvement, past inspection reports show there have been some challenges, with a few infection-related issues and over twenty total deficiencies-including concerns about safe dialysis, respiratory care, and resident rights. The home is run by Life Care Centers of America, with direct ownership by Forrest Preston as a for-profit corporation, and has been managed by this group since 1991. It has earned accreditation for care standards. Right now, Briarwood Health Care Center isn't taking new patients. Services are available in English, and possibly other languages, though there's no listed information about hours, specialties, or fax number. Amenities and services focus on seniors and adults with health challenges needing ongoing or rehabilitation support.
