Berwick Retirement Village is a community that gives several care options for seniors, offering independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing, so folks can stay in one place even if their needs change over time. The community has names like Nursing Homes I & II, Brookdale of Bloomsburg, and uses care programs like Berwick Home Health & Hospice, Berwick Rehabilitation Services, and Spark Rehab which tries to help people recover after hospital stays. Apartments and suites come with private bathrooms, air conditioning, wifi, cable, and sometimes even kitchenettes, while people can enjoy resort-style and comfortable shared spaces like dining rooms, fitness rooms, a renovated gym, outdoor patios, and a fireplace area, plus small things like a garden or library that always seem to come in handy. There are specialized programs for those living with memory loss or dementia in safe and supervised areas, and the focus is always on keeping folks secure with a 24-hour call system, emergency and ambulance services through Berwick Area Ambulance, and regular safety checks. Meals can be handled in restaurant-style settings and they honor special diets, while laundry, housekeeping, and help with daily tasks like bathing and getting dressed are all part of the deal, depending on what each person needs. Social life comes easy enough since they've got community-sponsored activities, planned day trips, fitness and game rooms, and a wellness center, and there's transportation for both medical appointments and errands out in town. People who need health care will find a long list of options right on site, including Action Health, Able Physical Therapy, Berwick Dental Arts, various optometry and audiology clinics, Beltone Hearing Aid Center, Care First Pharmacy, Dr. Ronald J. Avenia MD, Dr. David Ball DO PC, Atlas Therapeutic Massage, and chiropractors, and more. The community talks a lot about keeping people balanced and healthy, offering things like fall prevention, sleep studies at the Berwick Sleep Lab, and good counseling through Berwick Behavioral Health Services. The staff tries to make rooms feel like home, give attentive care, and help people heal when possible, especially with programs for fast recovery. Residents with difficult health challenges get round-the-clock medical care, including specialists, rehabilitation, and wound care, and memory care residents get special activities and support all day and night. The place is made for seniors who want a safe, easy place to live with as much help or independence as fits their needs, and they work to make it comfortable, secure, and as simple as they can.

Neglectful, profit-focused nursing home experience
I had a loved one here and it was the worst facility I've experienced: during COVID residents were left unfed, requests and call buttons were ignored, food was handed to staff instead of residents, people were moved without notice and families weren't told. Staff act like "not my job," therapy is a joke, and the place has deteriorated into a money-focused operation with no real concern for patients.
