Blue Circle Rehab and Nursing

My family and I had been touring facilities for my sister who needed 24 hr care, we was given Blue Circle as an accepting facility from Barnes hospital. We had a great experience at Blue Circle Rehab, all our questions were answered by staff, everyone was very polite and straightforward. During the tour which we didn't have to schedule and we was not rushed out the building which is very good, we noticed how All residents look happy, smiling, interacting with other residents, participating in activities, resident were well dressed, staff spoke as we walked by, calls lights where being answered. Rooms where cleaned and well kept and no smell of Urine. Unfortunately we as a family did not chose BCR only because of the drive it would be for our elderly parents.

The staff here that I've had the pleasure of meeting are great. And the patients seem to like them as well. I have no complaints.

I’ve visited many nursing facilities over the years, and more often than not, I’ve left feeling heartbroken and disheartened by the conditions our elderly are subjected to. It’s truly distressing to see people who deserve dignity living in despair. But I’m so happy to say—that is not the case with this facility. Now, anyone who knows me knows I don’t sugarcoat anything. You’ll always get my honest opinion. When I first walk into any facility, the first thing I notice is the smell—it’s usually the first sign of whether or not a place is being properly maintained. This facility smelled clean and fresh, which immediately set a positive tone. Everyone I encountered was smiling, well-groomed, and clearly cared for. The residents looked content, the rooms were clean and consistently maintained, and not once did I meet a rude or disengaged staff member. On the contrary, every employee I observed was laughing, interacting warmly with residents and with each other, creating a truly uplifting environment. I have a loved one here, and I came in ready to scrutinize everything—looking for any reason to raise concerns or consider moving her if needed. But I left feeling incredibly reassured. The leadership here clearly sets a strong example, and the relationships between the staff and residents reflect genuine care and respect. I understand that for many families, placing a loved one in a facility may come from necessity—whether due to physical limitations, finances, or other circumstances. It’s comforting to know that places like this still exist—where care, dignity, and community are more than just words. Thank you to every member of the team for your dedication and ethical service. We see your effort, and we appreciate you. Please keep up the incredible work!
