I am here to tell you that I was scared to come here...I have broken my Femur
at my hip in February of 2023, had a horrible car accident in september of 2023 which I shattered my Femur and knee in 12 places,broke 7 ribs,and my ring finger on my right leg... then in July of 2024 I fell off of my 3 wheel mobility scooter and broke my Femur at my knee on my left leg. ..so to say that I have been in rehabilitation center from Pt.Charlotte, Sarasota and now in Bradenton...I was in a nice place in Bradenton first but then had to move from there to Braden River Rehab Manatee....I was so scared to have to change....the first two were terrible and the CNA were no good...so I still had to move here...I CRIED the night before coming here...I prayed "Let Go and Let God"...i have been here for 100 days and i am truly sad that i have to leave....I got here the first Nurse was Dustin and that was God's way of letting me know that God was in control...That is my youngest son name...he was the greatest, always tentative to all of my needs and concerns...worked like a dog around here..Dustin went to Orlando with us and did an amazing job keeping up with all of his patients and did it to his best..there was another nurse there and she also did an amazing job, i just dont remember her name..there also are several other wonderful Nurses at the rehab.. Kimberly, Kara, Sheme, and there is another guy that I can't think of his name because he worked down at the other end on my floor...Then the CNA's were just incredible 1st shift...Shelia is the hardest worker I have ever met...she and Fran changed patients, got patients up, passed out trays for breakfast, changed beds, got patients ready Dr's Appointment and never complained, just did there jobs...the both of them went to Orlando for the hurricane they bith never stopped taking care of patients when others just did as much as they had to do...her and Fran, I called her Frannie Bannie she was great...day shift ... 2nd shift...there was Yowanda she was amazing, Renee he all was willing to help...and Isabella was the greatest also...3 rd shift...Erna 11 to 7 was so attentive to every need...Her daughter also I can't remember her name I only had her a few times...Then rehab the first PT that I has was another sign from God was Claire and that is my late mother's name...and she was more then wonderful...the PT that I had was May she really got me to an amazing place in my walking....and then for OT Joy was the greatest also...then the others were Lindsey, Ryan, Ned, Glennese, Jessica, and more but can't remember there names. . . Miss Dee in Actives was such a blessing as she did Bingo i only wish we could have had it every day, outings, arts and crafts, Nail care, snacks and movies....the Best...I had 3 roommates 2 of them were the best.. I even have there numbers and call them after they left and talk to them...only one that was very rude...if she was hot she opened the door, if she was cold she would shut the door, controlled the TV, told me to shut off my light, got mad when I asked her if her family could take there chairs out of the room so I could get my wheelchair around to go to the bathroom... she did really like anyone, complained about the CNA, The Nurses, and other patients, she made the CNA's to shut there doors if at 9:00 there TV was to loud for her...and her TV was at 40 loud which had my head going crazy because it was to loud....she finally got upset with me and asked to be moved....the DON is the best...always when he walks by some of the patients that had become friends with me and he would be so kind to us...The head Nurse was also the best...Braden River Rehabilitation Center you made my stay the best...I actually am crying because I am having to leave....God Bless you all...I also loved the Fact that the ones that worked there weren't afraid to let us know that they were believer's. .. THANK YOU ALL

My Wife was a patient for 5 weeks and got top notch care. The staff was caring and family like, way to many to name names. I also recommended the facility to a long time close friend that got great care like a family member also. Keep up the great care and service. The only reason it's not a five star rating is foodservice needs improving.
John Sokalsky
Great staff and family environment.

January, 2024... my second time here for hospital aftercare for Cellulitis and wound care. I have had to be in several healthcare facilities for Cellulitis in Las Vagas and Bradenton, FL. There is no better facility that I have been in that has treated my healthcare and healing needs better than Braden River Rehab. Not perfect... no place is due to a post-Covid shortage of healthcare personnel, but I am a healthy person due to their care.

When my wife came to Braden River Rehab she was in very poor shape. It was mid August and she had been released from the hospital after having septus, pnenumonia, kidney problems, being on a ventolater, oxygen, feeding tube, etc. She could not walk, talk,swallow or communicate. With the help of a fantastic staff of professionals, OT, PT, Speech, and support staff she is only a little over a week from coming home instead of going to assisted living. We highly recommend Braden River. Everyone was great.

I recently had the privilege of being a patient at Braden River Rehabilitation Center, and I can confidently say that my experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived to the day of my discharge, I was overwhelmed by the level of care and compassion I received from the entire staff.
First and foremost, the medical team at Braden River Rehabilitation Center is second to none. They demonstrated an unwavering commitment to providing the highest quality of care. Every doctor, nurse, and support staff member was not only highly skilled and knowledgeable but also incredibly empathetic. They took the time to explain my condition and treatment options, and patiently answered all of my questions, alleviating any concerns I had.
The hospital's facilities were immaculate and well-maintained, creating a clean and comfortable environment that significantly contributed to my healing process. The state-of-the-art equipment and technology were readily accessible to the medical team, allowing for accurate diagnoses and effective treatments.
One aspect that truly stood out at Braden River Rehabilitation Center was their dedication to patient comfort. The staff made every effort to ensure that I felt at ease during my stay. The kindness and compassion they showed, whether through a warm smile, a listening ear, or a reassuring gesture, made a world of difference in my overall experience.
Another noteworthy aspect of Braden River Rehabilitation Center is its efficient and well-organized administrative processes. From admission to discharge, everything was handled smoothly, minimizing any unnecessary stress during an already challenging time.
In addition to exceptional medical care, Braden River Rehabilitation Center provides a wide range of support services and resources for both patients and their families. This holistic approach to healthcare demonstrates their commitment to the overall well-being of their community.

Highly recommend this facility as a nurse for 23 years I have had the experience to work with many rehabilitation facilities and my patients i see from here are well cared for and the individual attention they receive to help with their needs in the facility and to go back into the community by Alyse Walton in Social services is the best in Bradenton I have seen. She is a huge asset and I have seen great improvement in the facility since she has taken over this role.

My mother- in- law recently stayed here to recover from surgery. The service was top notch and the staff treated her like family. Due to insurance, she was discharged sooner than we would have liked. The Braden River Rehab staff continues to support us to make sure we are able to get the medical help my mother in law needs to fully recover.

Braden River Rehab was recommended to me by a friend who had great things to say. After admitting my father to the facility for his stay I couldn’t agree more. He was cared for and attended to by the staff on a regular basis. Most of all he was comfortable with his stay and our expectations were met.
Joy
My grandfather was at Braden River for over a month. Caring staff Every Day. Exceptional Care. I am very appreciative of the staff there. Rehab helped make his recovery very quick.

Richard Reeves
Brian in Admissions is absolutely amazing! After trying for weeks and weeks to get my Father transferred from the hospital into a facility with no luck, Brian came though for us! Every time I called to speak with him he was very pleasant and willing to help.
He went well above and beyond to help get my Father into this facility. Thank you so much Brian!
Michelle A.
We had been looking for help to place my Dad's wife in long term care and we were having a difficult time getting help. Then I found Brian Michalo, director of admissions at this facility. He was very helpful and understanding of our situation. With his help, we were able to quickly transfer her to a room here. If not for Brian's guidance, I'm not sure what we would have done.
So far, everyone we have met here has been friendly and helpful. We know they all have a tough job to do and we appreciate them all. Thanks Brian.
Tom McDade
They were very happy to fix the problems and very fast. I am pleased with the results

Very nice renovation, family friendly atmosphere
Vanda Fredericks
Being in the healthcare field for 20 years, I am extremely impressed with the leadership of this building. The Administrator and Director of Nursing take a hands on approach to ensure the quality of care for the residents. It is very seldom you come across an Administrator who is out on the floors knowing all their patients and family members and ensuring the care is above standards. I feel very blessed to represent such an quality facility.
Tricia Russo
My mother recovered and rehabbed here after a difficult illness. She had many issues that needed to be addressed. The team here coordinated care for those issues and worked together between all departments to give her the best chance possible to get back to her prior living arrangement. The administration, nursing, CNA, housekeeping and rehab staff were some of the kindest people I have ever encountered at this type of facility.The rehab team is innovative and thoughtful; focusing on the individual needs of a resident. When the need for full time nursing comes, I will feel confident that Braden River is the place to go.
Lisa Bray
Wow, what a amazing experience I have had at this newly renovated facility for short term rehab or long term home stays. Everyone of the nurses works very hard and passionately to take care of there residents. The management listens and responds to complaints and suggestions. If your going to have to choose a facility for rehabilitation or long term care then Braden River rehab is where you want to be. Thank you to the management and staff for all you do for the residents of Braden River Rehab.
