Review of Sheepshead Nursing Home

We visited my sister-in-law at Sheepshead Nursing yesterday and were impressed with the quality of care she is being given. She was transferred from Maimonides after an admission resulting from a fall. The staff had supplied clothing so that she was not embarrassed to be wearing hospital scrubs (I think that was what she was wearing when admitted). Dialysis is a relatively new aspect of her care. She had been able to control her kidney disease for many years by adhering to a rigid diet, but unfortunately 2 weeks ago she needed to start dialysis treatments. At Sheepshead, she is able to get these treatments at bedside and also to get physical therapy. Sheepshead Nursing is a clean, bright space that is professionally staffed. It is a blessing that she is able to be treated there.
