Staff

I have had the privilege of being a nurse for over 23 years.  I graduated with a 4.0 at the top of my nursing class.  I have enjoyed a variety of opportunities from hospital administration to the bedside.

Being part of the Briarwood team is the most rewarding opportunity I have experienced.  The mission and vision of Briarwood, to provide holistic and individualized care in a compassionate way, where the employees and residents are valued and respected is a perfect fit. Being part of a 5-star facility is an honor. I can truly say I would and have had my loved ones cared for at Briarwood.

What Does IT Mean To You To Have A 5-Star Rating?

It means meeting my residents needs in the best possible way.  Dignified quality care.

My name is Mark Stroeh (pronounced “Stray”) and I am the Administrator at Briarwood Manor Care Center. I have 15 years of experience as a college president in healthcare and culinary arts career schools. Before that, I was a training manager in the United States Air Force (Staff Sergeant), and I was also a police officer for eight years. I have been married for 13 years. I have five children and ten grandchildren. It has been my lifelong passion to provide resident-centered care and improve the way that we take care of our elderly. I would never consider doing anything else. I am thrilled to be here in Bellville, Texas, where the staff, families, and residents have given me a warm welcome. Please feel free to stop by my office any time if I can be of assistance to you.
