“We selected Brandel for my father after he broke his leg. Everyone has been incredibly friendly and helpful. He loves the food and facility and we feel very fortunate to have found a place that is so convenient for us to visit and so comfortable for him to receive quality care while he recovers.”

★★★★Mina H · 2025-09-15 · via Google

“Father placed here for rehab after a hip injury... Best Medicare facility seen out of 3 in the area. Scored private and large room at a location convenient to Northbrook.”

★★★★Kyun Hwangbo · 2025-09-15 · via Google

“Here for rehab after fractured hip surgery... Big clean single room with a refrigerator recliner and chair in the room. Decent nurses but bad food.”
