    Caring staff, effective rehab, recommended

    I'm very grateful for the excellent medical care my mom received - nurses, therapists and the doctor were professional, attentive and genuinely caring. Admissions and social work (Dominique and Vernie stood out) guided us smoothly and stayed responsive; the administrator and director communicated clearly. The small, clean facility felt safe and homey, rehab was effective, and staff arranged FaceTime during COVID when visits were limited. Overall a very positive experience and I recommend this nursing home.

    Summary of reviews

    The reviews for this facility are highly polarized, with distinct clusters of positive and negative experiences. On the positive side, many families and residents describe compassionate front-line caregivers — particularly nursing assistants, therapists, and some nursing and physician staff — who provide attentive day-to-day care, help residents regain function in rehabilitation, and coordinate effectively with equipment vendors. Admissions and social-work staff are frequently singled out as supportive and helpful during transitions, and multiple accounts describe successful therapy outcomes, timely DME coordination, and rooms that are cleaned and maintained at the unit level.

    Conversely, a substantial set of reviews identifies systemic operational weaknesses. Chief among these are inconsistent staffing levels and coverage that reviewers associate with delays in personal care, meal delivery, and clinical response. Multiple comments point to concerns about staff conduct and communication tone, as well as leadership responsiveness — families describe difficulty reaching managers by phone and inconsistent follow-through on escalation. Several reviews describe gaps in clinical monitoring and timely escalation to higher levels of care; these accounts raise concerns about nutrition/hydration management, wound/pressure-injury surveillance, and the process for arranging transfers or higher-acuity interventions.

    Facility infrastructure and supplies are recurring themes. Reviewers describe aging building systems, water-intrusion or flooding events, and general maintenance needs that affect the resident environment. Relatedly, several accounts cite supply and equipment shortages for direct-care staff and inconsistencies in housekeeping or common-area sanitation. Dining and activity programs appear uneven: some residents report meaningful rehabilitation and social engagement, while others report limited recreational programming and interrupted meal-service continuity that requires family supplementation.

    Management and governance are areas of mixed feedback. Positive notes highlight individual leaders and staff who are communicative, hands-on, and effective; negative notes emphasize perceived unprofessional conduct by some supervisors, inconsistent care-planning meetings, and at least a few serious allegations involving personal property and financial handling. Taken together, the pattern suggests notable variability by shift, unit, and individual caregiver: prospective residents and families may encounter high-quality, empathetic care in some instances, and operational or clinical lapses in others. For decision-making, families should consider visiting during several times of day, asking about staffing ratios and care-plan/communication practices, and verifying the availability of specific rehabilitation and nursing services important to their loved one.

    About Verrazano Nursing and Post-Acute Center

    Verrazano Nursing and Post-Acute Center sits over in Staten Island, New York, and they've been around for more than 40 years as a family-run place, keeping things at a comfortable size with 120 beds, which means people aren't lost in the crowd and can get one-on-one care and attention, so there's a close-knit, almost family feeling to the place with staff who genuinely enjoy going about their work and spending time with people who live there, you really feel that sort of friendliness from the way they interact every day. The facility focuses on post-acute care, so what that means is that they're well set up to help folks after they've had a stay at the hospital, with programs and units for different stages of recovery and all sorts of special care options tailored to the needs people have when they're getting better from surgery, illness, or injury, and you'll find nursing services, rehabilitation, and also post-acute care all under one roof, which just makes things a bit easier on families and patients alike. There's a Director of Rehabilitation who runs their rehabilitation department, with dedicated therapy areas, and they use some of their own care terminology that fits their care approach, so what's offered covers occupational, speech, and physical therapy, plus recreational therapy for daily activities to help keep everyone active and engaged. Registered nurses cover the skilled nursing needs here, giving medical care and helping out with things that people can't safely do on their own, and when someone needs help with mental health or social matters, licensed social workers are on hand, ready to step in with support or connect folks to community resources, and social services figure in pretty strongly. Meals matter in a place like this, so the dietary services try to match up with both medical needs and personal preferences, making sure everyone gets what they need to stay as healthy as they're able. Verrazano Nursing and Post-Acute Center keeps things personal with tailored care plans for each resident and offers specialized services and amenities aimed at making recovery and daily life more comfortable, always keeping the focus on what's practical and actually helpful for folks going through different phases of getting better.
