Valley View Nursing and Rehabilitation

My husband is in rehab at Valley View Nursing and Rehabilitation, and I think the floor he is on is for dementia patients. The place is kind of basic with large rooms that are big enough for a wheelchair to go through them. They have a TV, and the beds are comfortable. When you walk in the door, it feels comfortable. There's an ambiance about it that just makes you feel comfortable. I love the staff. They are caring, charismatic, and good with people who have dementia, which I was surprised about for a rehab. The dining area is fine. The only complaint I would have about the food is that he often gets his food cold, but it tastes fine. For activities, I know they offer bingo. They often have performers that come in in the afternoon. There's also movie nights and different things. My husband doesn't participate in much of it, but I do know that there are activities because they announce them on an intercom. They bring around the directory of what's happening, when, and where. It's expensive at $11,400 a month, but it's worth it if you can afford it.

I have had friends who have lived here in the past, and a friend who currently lives here. They have always been very happy with this place. In the assisted living area, the apartments are roomy enough with a kitchenette, and a separate bedroom. The common areas are spotless, with very nice amenities, including a grand piano, which the residents can use, and entertainment is frequently provided. There are all levels of care at this facility, including independent living apartments, assisted living apartments, and a nursing home facility, all in the same place, so that as your needs increase, you will not have to go elsewhere. The staff has always been courteous and knowledgeable, and helpful. When I went in to the front desk, and asked which room a particular resident was in, they told me, but they also told me that she was currently in the dining room, to save me a trip up to her apt. The food is amazing! My friend is always raving about it, and inviting me to eat with her. The cost is a little more than some of the other places, but you get what you pay for. They do have busses and/or vans that take you to shopping centers, and/or doctors appointments at certain times.

We chose Life Care Center of Valley View for my mother-in-law because it has a high rating, everything sounded good when we talked to them, and it is close to where we live. They have different things going on like bingo, some entertainment every now and then, and movies that they can watch. The staff seems very good.
