Memorial Manor

Memorial Manor is a nursing home at 777 S Douglas Rd in Pembroke Pines, FL, with 120 certified beds and an average daily census of about 109 residents, and you can find both private and semi-private rooms in its single-story building, which makes it easier for folks using wheelchairs or walkers to get around, and it has undergone recent renovations to make things more comfortable and accessible. South Broward Hospital District owns and manages Memorial Manor, and they've had folks like David Smith, Scott English, and Jon Hennemyre manage the place since 2015, with the district owning it outright since 1989. The staff works to keep things welcoming, with a culture praised as friendly and helpful, and the facility even picked up the Most Friendly in Senior Living Award and the Best of Senior Living All Star Award for 2024 after getting 25 or more reviews, though past inspection reports do show 11 recent deficiencies, including ones for following care orders, preparing meals for dietary needs, and pharmacy services, so families should check those reports to stay informed. The nurse turnover rate sits at about 46.9%, which is a bit on the higher side, though residents get about 4.63 nurse hours per day, and a board-certified, fellowship-trained medical director and geriatric nurse practitioners oversee care, with 24-hour staff support. Memorial Manor offers skilled nursing, memory care, and rehab therapy, handling needs like cancer care, orthopedics, and neuroscience, and it has specialty clinics for therapy services including occupational and physical therapy, as well as options for dental, dermatology, gastroenterology, and more specialties, and its physical therapy department gets high marks. You'll find options for both long-term and short-term stays, and the staff makes individual care plans for each resident. Meals are cooked by chefs and meal planners to fit residents' dietary needs and taste, though the facility was once cited over treating special dietary needs, but overall the food is supposed to be nutritious and appealing. There are dining, transportation, housekeeping, and laundry services, and you'll see amenities like a beauty salon, a gift shop, outdoor seating, tranquil green spaces, and air conditioning, all aimed at keeping folks comfortable and engaged in daily life. Memorial Manor holds organized activities and events, offers religious services including Jewish celebrations, and encourages people to stay physically, mentally, and socially active, with awards recognizing its lively programs. Residents and families can use the "MyChart" portal to track health information, schedule appointments, and get doctor information, which makes communication smoother. Memorial Manor also provides guidance for families on caregiving, long-term care, and insurance choices, so people can sort out what works best as they get older. It's a for-profit facility with both assisted living and independent living options, along with home care services for those who want to stay connected to their community. Nurses provide 24/7 care for those who need extra support in daily living, so the facility suits people needing both short-term rehab after surgery or illness, or long-term help for more serious health concerns. The average rating from residents and families is about 3.8 out of 5 across 72 reviews. There's a focus on community too, with outreach programs, volunteer opportunities, and fundraising-all aimed at delivering quality healthcare and making sure folks get the support they need as they age, even if some areas have needed improvement in recent years.
