Southwood At Norwell Nursing sits on eight wooded acres, and you can tell the place is run by the Starr family, who've been offering healthcare on the South Shore since 1954, so you get a sense of tradition. The center gives seniors a safe and comfortable space with skilled nursing care, assisted living, and memory care set up for those living with Alzheimer's or other dementias. Residents who need long-term support or short-term rehab find nursing care here, and the staff, which includes nurses and certified nursing assistants, help folks with daily health needs like incontinence care and nutritional support. The building's got a tasteful design that feels pleasant but serves the needs of elderly people, and the dining area and meal service are set up so meals are both manageable and enjoyable. The staff earn praise for being caring, kind, and professional. The facility has services for pain management, IV therapy, and therapies for rehab, as well as support for people who need hospice or respite, and there's a strong focus on keeping people as independent and active as possible, both in body and mind. They work to give information about treatments and support health management, always centering care around each resident's needs. With its country setting and a full range of healthcare services, Southwood At Norwell Nursing keeps its focus on safe, respectful, and attentive care for older adults.

Excellent care but inconsistent staffing
I was impressed - outstanding nurses, exceptionally kind and communicative staff, daily FaceTime updates, great rehab, delicious meals, many activities, and an immaculate, home-like facility close to home. That said, staffing and consistency can be a problem: some shifts felt understaffed, a few staff were unprofessional, and there were disturbing safety/communication lapses reported, so it's not right for everyone. Overall I'd recommend Southwood with caution - fantastic care much of the time, but ask hard questions about staffing and safety before deciding.
