In the Heart of the Beautiful Berkshires
Our facility is situated in the heart of the beautiful Berkshires and has earned a reputation of excellence in providing a range of rehabilitation and skilled nursing care. Our experienced staff of compassionate caregivers, therapists, clinical experts and dietary personnel are focused on one goal: providing an exceptional experience for our residents and patients.

Our Mission
We are committed to enhancing the lives of our residents, whether they need short-term rehabilitation, or traditional long-term care. At Springside we recognize the difference is in the details and we invest as much time and energy in our setting as we do in the care we provide. Our mission is to provide a bridge between inpatient care and home for our short-term residents, and to achieve and maintain the highest possible level of functioning for each of our long-term residents.
Care Planning
Each and every patient and resident at Springside has an individualized plan of care that includes input from themselves, family and each member of our clinical team. No two individuals are alike and every one of our residents’ needs are naturally unique. We understand that and develop a plan, and continue to revisit that plan, as your loved one’s needs may change. We encourage family members to provide feedback and continue the conversation as our top objective is always to enhance the quality of life of our patients and residents. We look forward to speaking with you.

Testimonials
It is so difficult to put into words out heartfelt appreciation for the supportive care that our loved one, Bill A. received at Bay Path. We realize that it’s not an easy job for any of you with constant demands and needs of your residents being a daily consideration. Everyone from the welcoming ladies at the front desk, the staff at the desk at Alden, the administration, the nursing and the social worker staff, the CNAS, food service, maintenance, speech and physical therapy all provided an exceptional level of care.
– Lauren A. and Family.
I wanted to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to the management, owners and staff members at John Scott House for the services and care provided to my mother, Dorothy A., during her stay there from June of 2012 until her passing there on November 16, 2017 just after her 94th birthday. Over that five and a half years there were many issues and challenges from day to day, but I have to say the services could not have been better, in every situation...
Sincerely, – Raymond A.
I’d like to take this opportunity to extend our sincerest thanks to the staff of both the Addison Gilbert Hospital and the Seacoast Nursing & Rehabilitation Center. Over the last few months, my father was a patient at both facilities. He’s now able to continue his stroke recovery care at home. We credit his progress to first, the Gloucester Fire Department, the ER staff at AGH, the attending specialists, nursing staff, aides, nutritionists, therapists, and nurse practitioners.
– JILL W. AND FAMILY
Thank you so much for all the special care and attention that my father received at the Brighton House during his stay there for seven weeks. Please pass my deepest thanks on to the nurses and aids who attended all of his needs with great care and love; also physical and occupational therapy staff were very caring and excellent. My special great thanks to Svetlana P., who has an unbelievable relationship with the patients.
– Sincerely, Natasha K.
