Terrible. Only the physical therapy department and one CNA were good. I give Miguel my CNA 💯 stars. Most of the CNA were terrible especially the night shift that partied and laughed at patients. Most of them don't speak English and I had to help and advocate for two of my roommates. They are way under staffed and it took 10 day to get my medications right. The first 3 days there was no medication available for me and I was a seziure patient! It took ranting and raving to get it right. Being a former nurse myself I knew what was complete neglect. I left early because it literally an insane asylum!

Moving my family member here long term was not an easy decision. Touring facilities in the South Bay and came to the consensus that this place was by far better than the other places we have toured. Initially we picked the place due to its cleanliness. But I will say I am glad that not only is this facility clean, but the staff has gone above and beyond to make sure my loved one in law feels comfortable. My grandma has been here for a few months now. I am surprised at the fact that she has transitioned so well. I have visited her during her physical therapy sessions, and that department is making progress with her. I have talked to some of the staff in the rehab department and the way they have tailored and customized her therapy makes me believe they really do care about her as a patient. She is complaining less of pain and doesn’t use her cane as much anymore. Another thing I am pleased with is, my grandma is a picky eater, and she has not once complained about the food. 10/10 care + staff :)

I would like to thank everyone at this facility for taking care of my grandfather during his recovery. As someone who works in healthcare, I am hesitant and protective of where my loved ones go. I was given a tour and was surprised at how clean the facility was. Walking through I felt safe to have my grandfather recover in this facility. During my visitations, I can see how eager he was to go to activities and go to physical therapy. My grandfather is a very guarded person and for me to see him interact with staff and other patients really warmed my heart and made me feel like he was in good hands. Staff was constantly reassuring me and updating me whenever I had worries. My family is very content and satisfied with the care he received at this facility.
