“I recently spent some time at Briarwood for Rehab. I’d like to give a shout out of thanks for all the fun and laughter. I loved BINGO, video games and activities in general. Many thanks to Nicole and the activities staff. I also want to thank OT for getting me up and out of bed when I didn’t want to, and getting me up and out of my room. They helped me get to the point where I am now able to return home.”
