As the Admissions Director at Barberton Post Acute, I recently had the unique experience of also being a patient here for nearly three weeks after breaking my ankle in three places. Due to my injury, returning home safely was not an option at the time. The hospital initially recommended an inpatient rehabilitation facility because, at 36 years old, they did not feel a skilled nursing facility would be the best fit. However, I confidently chose Barberton Post Acute because I already knew the quality of care our team provides. I knew the nursing staff would take excellent care of me, therapy would help me regain my strength and mobility, and our residents would make me feel welcome. From the moment I arrived, that is exactly what happened. Although I was in significant pain, I immediately felt the warmth, compassion, and support of everyone around me. The environment was incredibly welcoming and made a difficult situation much easier to navigate. A special thank you to Grace, our Resident Vice President, and the Activities Department for making sure I was always included and engaged. Grace quickly became my “wheelchair buddy” and is truly one of the most welcoming residents you could ever meet. The nursing staff consistently went above and beyond. They were always available when I needed assistance, and many team members stopped by just to check on me and see how I was doing. Their kindness and genuine concern meant so much during my recovery. The therapy team was outstanding. They challenged me every day while keeping me focused on my ultimate goal—returning home safely. One of my biggest fears was navigating stairs. I worried that one wrong move could result in another injury or even additional surgery. Through their encouragement, expertise, and patience, they helped me build the confidence I needed. Before I knew it, I was successfully completing 20 stairs—something I never thought I could do when I first arrived. Experiencing Barberton Post Acute as both an employee and a patient gave me an even greater appreciation for the exceptional care provided here every day. I am incredibly grateful to the entire team for helping me recover and regain my independence. I highly recommend Barberton Post Acute to anyone in need of skilled nursing care or rehabilitation services. Thank you all for everything you do. ❤️

They are really nice people, they take care of my uncle like he’s family and use, all the nurses are nice and friendly

My mother recently stayed here. I was very pleased with the care she received. I highly recommend Barberton Post Acute!

This is an older building and the wear and tear is visible, but it is kept spotlessly clean. The nurses, aides, and therapists were all great. The residents seem happy and were often to be found chatting and laughing with the staff at the nurses’ desk. This is, by far, the most cheerful and friendliest medical facility I’ve ever visited. Dad even liked the food! The only negative experience we had was with the discharge planning – he was sent home with no durable medical equipment in place and no in-home care scheduled.

Do not know where to start, but I absolutely love this place. My uncle has been here for a few months and they have gone over and beyond the care for him and helping him get back to the best him as possible. Without the wonderful nursing staff there he would not be alive today Words cannot begin the absolute gratitude that I have for the people who worked on him. Every time we come in the place is always clean and the staff is willing to help. I believe that they need recognition for the outstanding work that they are doing. Thank you so much!

My mom has been here for a couple months now I was very overwhelmed and had a million questions the staff was wonderful answering the questions and when there’s any concerns I get a call from one of the staff members they keep me updated on my mom’s progress we have meetings every month. My mom’s learning how to be a social butterfly I go up there I have to look for her because she’s either in the activity room playing bingo playing cards so many activities to keep them busy and I absolutely couldn’t be more happy. Special Thanks to Michelle (rn),Sally office,Yolanda (rn) Kasi management,. So many more and I can’t think of their names so please forgive me. 🥰

Upon entering building, you will see an old building with updates needed (that are slowly being done), but the important thing to know is the care given by the nurses and aides. I call my group “The Dream Team”. They keep me informed about issues my loved one may have and I trust their care when I can’t be there. They give me the peace of mind I need while my loved one is in a nursing home.
