Our Story
The History of the Rockingham County Complex in Brentwood, New Hampshire
Historic Roots
Rockingham County Rehabilitation and Nursing Center is owned and operated by Rockingham County, New Hampshire. The campus sits on a remote section of Brentwood, NH surrounded by lush farmland. The complex provides a quiet, rustic setting while being just minutes from Epping, New Hampshire.
Our history of care dates back 1868 when the Rockingham County government purchased a farm to build an almshouse for the town’s poor. Over the following decades, the county complex expanded and evolved into the building that stands today. The Rockingham campus is nearly 250,000 square feet and sits on 50 acres.
Long-Term Care Services Today
Rockingham County’s continuum of care is comprised of 202 dually certified rehab/long-term care beds, and an assisted living residence. Under Dr. Singer’s leadership as the Medical Director, our aging services have been refined so that residents can receive the same level of care that they would in a hospital setting, all while enjoying the comforts of home.
Providing expert care is the basis of our philosophy. We embrace a proactive approach to continually improve the way we care for and engage with our residents, caregivers, and other partners. With the support of the Rockingham County Commissioners, we continue to look to the future for new ways of fulfilling our mission and meeting the continually evolving needs and desires of older adults. By creating an environment where older adults continue to shape their lives, we can make meaningful advances that promise to enrich the lives of those we serve now and in the future.

“Without being flamboyant, the goal was to provide a clean, contemporary renovation that equaled or surpassed any private facility delivering comparable services. ”
