“My family heard such good reports about your “home” from professionals when looking for a place for my dad. I use the word “home” because I have to say that being at Gurwin’s (vent unit) was the closest to a “home” and caring environment than any other we could expect with the intense kind of care my dad was in need of. Everyone there was involved, very caring and treated my dad and our concerns with the utmost respect and understanding. On your stationary I noticed you use the phrase, “The art of caring. The science of care.” This truly reflects in one line why you have the reputation that you do.”

The outstanding professionals at Gurwin
“Words fail me to express my gratitude to the unbelievable staff for the care given to my husband. He was placed at Gurwin following a life-threatening neurosurgical procedure. He spent two weeks in your respiratory and ventilator unit where he received competent and compassionate care from the minute he was admitted to the minute he was discharged from your facility. The outstanding professionals at Gurwin enabled him to complete his rehab in less than the anticipated time, and he was able to be home in time for his birthday! I hold your staff in the highest regard.”
-Rosemary D.
Thanks to the excellent staff
“Some doctors from the hospital did not think our daughter would ever be able to breathe on her own, or swallow solid foods. Well, the team at Gurwin proved them wrong. Thanks to the excellent respiratory therapists, speech therapists, physical therapists and nursing staff, she is now able to breathe on her own. She eats everything with no trouble, speaks clearly and has improved range of motion. When we go home, we know she is safe in your care. Thank you all so much!”
-Leonard & Mary M.
Caring and compassionate people
“My family has been a privileged member of the “Gurwin family” for more than three years. Throughout the process of admitting my mom, I encountered caring and compassionate people whose primary focus was to help get my mom the care she so desperately needed. When she arrived, she was surrounded by a group of medical and support personnel whose sole mission was to maintain her dignity and make certain she was comfortable while getting acclimated to her new surroundings. Each and every staff member treated my mom like a member of their own family. My family visited often, and no matter when we arrived she was always dressed nicely, well groomed and content. On behalf of my family, thank you to the entire staff for their dedication and devotion to our mom. We will never forget the wonderful people who cared for her while she resided at Gurwin.”

Extraordinary staff
“Thank you to the extraordinary staff for the excellent level of care that our mother/wife received at Gurwin. As constant visitors, we observed and were recipients of a high level of compassion, respect and kindness. The staff always made themselves available to answer our never-ending questions; they were incredibly helpful, responsive, professional and pleasant. Overall, we found Gurwin to be a cheerful environment, always bustling with lovely events and pleasant activities—and staffed by people ready to assist with a smile.”

Attentive to my husband’s needs
“We now know firsthand the excellent care provided at the Gurwin rehabilitation facility. The nurses and aides were attentive to my husband’s needs. We were so impressed that the staff had a smile and were gracious in providing their services. Having a spouse who is quite sick put pressure and stress on me. My anxiety and questions were always attended to with understanding and patience.”
-Joan B.
The employees make the difference
“In an era when so many businesses have been downsized, swallowed up, or closed, there is something to be said for the resilience and reputation of Gurwin. I believe the employees make the difference. We should always bear in mind that we each possess the capacity, even if only for a brief moment, to impact the lives of others. I will never forget the positive impression that the nursing staff at Gurwin had on my family.”
-Adriana W.
My Heartfelt Appreciation
“I am writing to express my heartfelt appreciation to the staff of Gurwin for the loving care they gave my mother. Their commitment to excellence made an extremely difficult situation easier on myself and my family. I never worried about the care she was getting. The dedication, love and support the staff showed all of us is something I will never forget.”

We won’t ever forget their kindness
“From the moment of our arrival, your staff was kind, efficient and went out of their way to care for my father, as well as my family. The nurses; aides; physical, speech and occupational therapists; and social worker that followed my father were so patient, kind and tolerant. Although I would never want to have to see anyone else in my family go through such an illness again, it is good to know there are facilities as wonderful as yours if we should ever need them. Please extend our love and thanks to this incredible group of people. They made his stay as wonderful as possible and helped my family through a very difficult time. We won’t ever forget their kindness.”
