Berkshire Nursing and Rehabilitation Center sits at 10 Berkshire Road in West Babylon, a 175-bed facility owned by Susan Aschkenazi through Berkshire Nursing Home, LLC. It’s been Medicare and Medicaid certified continuously since 1970, more than five decades of operating history, and the focus here leans toward short-term rehabilitation, with a physician on-site. Occupancy runs at 90 percent, 158 of 175 beds filled.
The facility takes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, and sits in a somewhat walkable pocket of West Babylon, Walk Score of 46. Staffing numbers give a real picture of daily care: total nursing time averages 2 hours and 45 minutes per resident, per day, with licensed practical nurses contributing 45 minutes of that.
The clinical programming here has real specificity. Cardiac rehabilitation, physical and occupational therapy, an enteral nutrition specialty, and dementia-focused care are all named, structured offerings, not vague service categories. The physical setting backs that up too: 4 acres of grounds and gardens, plus complimentary Wi-Fi, television, phone, and laundry service, and concierge support for residents and families navigating day-to-day logistics.
Inspections here have tended to focus on fire-safety systems and care planning and documentation, the kind of operational areas regulators typically review at established skilled nursing facilities.
Altogether, Berkshire Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is a long-running facility built specifically around short-term rehabilitation, backed by real clinical specialization and a physical campus substantial enough to support both residents and the families visiting them.
Berkshire Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is legally operated by Berkshire Nursing Home, LLC (For Profit).
