The clean, comfortable semi-private rooms are spacious, enabling patients to bring cherished items from home.
Bright and
airy, rooms are configured for privacy with beds
arranged toe-to-toe rather than side-by-side. This gives
every patient his or her own window with a view onto the
landscaped grounds or into the beautiful sunny
courtyard, a favorite place to relax and enjoy the
outdoors.
Knollwood Nursing Center has nursing units
specifically dedicated to short-term, sub-acute care and
long-term care in recognition of the specific needs of
each population. Click here to

History
In January 2002,
the beautiful state-of-the-art Knollwood Nursing Center
opened its doors. It continued a tradition begun in 1991
when the Salem Community Corporation founded by the
First Baptist Church and the Salem Covenant Church
purchased Knollwood Nursing Center, which was located
adjacent to Briarwood. The acquisition was the first
step towards creating a comprehensive continuing care
retirement community where Briarwood’s residents would
be assured of nursing care should the need arise. Today,
in keeping with the spirit and scope of our mission,
Knollwood welcomes all members of the greater Worcester
community.
The Briarwood Community
Mission
To enhance the well-being,
independence and personal fulfillment of residents by
providing excellent housing, health, wellness and
supportive services consistent with the caring spirit of
the founding churches.
