100th Birthday Celebration


The always-happy Alberta Clue, who came to the United States from Jamaica 50 years ago, celebrated her 100th birthday at Bushwick Center in Brooklyn on March 8, 2022. Along with her family including her daughter, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, the facility’s Director of Nursing Veronica Franklin-Simon, other staff, and fellow residents, Ms. Clue was all abuzz. Alberta was a farmer in her earlier years but now she got to enjoy her family and friends, a beautiful lunch, and cake, thanks to the hard work of Recreation team leader Maria Machado and her hard-working team. There was fun R&B live music and News 12 Brooklyn came to cover the happy occasion! Happy 100 Alberta!

Care. Support. Positive Outcomes. Centers Health Care.
Centers Health Care provides rehabilitation, skilled nursing and long-term care for people with a wide range of needs. Whether someone is recovering from surgery, managing an illness or simply needs more support than can be provided at home, our staff is there to help.
The goal is not exactly the same for everyone. It may be returning home, becoming stronger, staying independent or simply feeling better and more comfortable from one day to the next. There will be progress, setbacks and difficult days along the way. Our job is to be there through all of it, and to help each patient or resident get as far as he or she can.
Sometimes that progress comes in large steps. More often, it comes in small ones. Either way, every step matters.
Our Steps to Home series follows patients through rehabilitation and the journey from hospital to home:
