Valle Vista Post Acute

Dee Gee

My husband was in Valle Vista Post Acute for about 2 months from August to October 2023. He was rehabbing from a leg amputation. My husband also has dementia, so it is a complicated situation. The care there was very good, the nurses were attentive, he was kept clean, and his wound care was superb. The most important aspect of the stay for us was the physical therapy. I can't say enough about the physical therapy group, especially Rod, he was caring and took the time to overcome my husband’s muddle mind. My husband came home being able to transfer himself to his wheelchair easily. They also worked with me to help train me on how to transfer him from the bed to the wheelchair, help with how to pick him up if he fell, and how to transfer him to the car. This has made the homecare for him much easier. Although the facility is older, it has been updated and is clean. The view around the facility is beautiful and there are nice areas to take your family members out to see the views.

My dad was at Valle Vista Convalescent Hospital. They took him there for rehab after the hospital, and it seems that he came out with other symptoms that he didn't have before. He went in with a bunged up elbow, and he came out with some Atrial fibrillation that he didn't have before. It could have been coincidental, but I don't really know why. It was also very difficult to talk to him or to get him on the phone. I couldn't see him because he was in isolation due to COVID, so he was vaguely unreachable for me and my family to talk to him, and that was kind of concerning. He seemed to be OK with the food. He didn't mention anything bad about it, and it seems like he picked up a couple of pounds, so he was eating OK. The facility had a nice view, and it seemed like it was orderly, but I haven't been able to see it inside.
