The Best Nursing Home Communities in Delta County, CO

"I've been looking for long term care in Delta or Mesa County for a while now. When I saw and toured Horizons, I was tremendously impressed. Patients seem very happy, lots of activities going on, no odors, at lunch time, the food looked and smelled great. In my opinion, there's is no comparison to Horizons any where else in Delta or Mesa counties"

"My mother was in Willow Tree Care Center. It was challenging. There were problems with documentation that made the insurance keep trying to refuse payment and we had to continuously appeal the decision. She was there for three months, and I did at least six appeals on them doing noncoverage. It always came back with the reason being insufficient documentation from Willow Tree. The staff was very caring, but the management was distant. I kept asking for care plan meetings and in the three months she was there, we only had one. Her physical therapist and head nurse were never notified of the care plan meeting. The facility was old and dated. There were ants in my mom's room the day she moved in. They started doing a lot of upgrades right before my mom was discharged. They were replacing flooring and doing painting, so I'm optimistic that they've made improvements. The toilet in my mom's room sounded like a helicopter taking off whenever she flushed it and she had to have maintenance come in at different times to work on the toilet in her room, but they never replaced it. The food was typical, like cafeteria-type food. It wasn't anything special. It was edible, but they had a lot of just sandwiches."

"My wife is in Colorow Care Center. My wife has Alzheimer's, and she is here in a skilled nursing facility. They are too expensive for me. Before that, she was in a memory care unit and assisted living facility, which did not have skilled nursing, and she fell four times and ended up in a hospital. We had to get her out of there and put her in this skilled nursing facility. All I can say is my wife is getting outstanding care. The nurses in the memory care unit really know what they are doing. I think they are topnotch. It's a skilled nursing facility, she's in a memory care unit, and all locked-up. They have four wings of the building and one wing is memory care, which is a closed area. That one-fourth is memory care."

"San Juan is a family atmosphere, great administration and staff, a great place to live and a great place for short term rehab. Knowledgeable nursing staff and the best part is how we are cared about as an individuals."

"I have had two loved ones over eleven years in Valley Manor's memory care unit. The staff gives attention to the personal needs of every resident. Staff is highly trained in validation techniques. They communicate with me regularly and continually update care plans. Very professional services from diet to maintenance is done with genuine concern for residents. I highly recommend this facility.
