I am a home health and hospice nurse. I work with a lot of skilled nursing facilities when patients are ready to be discharged home. I wanted to take the time to highlight how amazing Daniella and Gabriella were with a recent patient discharge. Both were very easy to work with and were very communicative with this very complex situation. Most importantly, I feel like they cared deeply for this patient and their other patients. This attention to detail and caring attitude really helped provide a safe and efficient discharge home. This is not the case at a lot of other facilities. Thank you Daniella and Gabriella!
This facility was able to help my aunt and provided exceptional care throughout the rehabilitation process. A huge thank you to Vanessa from Admissions, she has been incredibly helpful, supportive, and kind during this difficult time. Her compassion and guidance made a world of difference in ensuring my loved one received the care and support needed to get better. Thank you Vanessa.

If you’re looking for a place where your loved one will be truly cared for during their healing journey, West Valley Post Acute is a place you can trust.
Wonderful place where my dad was able to spend time and rehabilitate after a hospital stay.

I highly recommend this place
