He's talks at you and not to you, he talks down to you, makes empty threats, he assumes EVERYONE is on Medical, the tone he speaks to you is very undermining. Needless to say, I'm VERY displeased Very about the series of events that has happened since my Uncle has been a patient here. My uncle broke his femur bone, so needless to say he's very dependent on staffing until he's completely rehabilitated. He's been a patient for 16 days (as of today)

After having been here for six months, the only redeeming service they offer is excellent physical…read moretherapy. The food was represented to us by a pretty young sales person as "chef inspired". The food was decent the first few weeks, even showing some creativity. Over the last four weeks it has rapidly declined, in pallatability, quantity and nutritional content. The meals are lacking in protein and fresh fruit and vegetables. The meals depend on a lot of frozen prepared items, like frozen breaded fish, and primarily canned vegetables and fruits. Sandwiches made with packaged lunch meats and salty cheeses are substituted if you decline a meal. You're absolutely required to take vitamin supplements. Meals are high in sugar, salt, carbohydrates with little regard for personal needs or preferences. They promote themselves as giving excellent wound care, but are reluctant to purchase wound care items that might seem too pricey. I've been trying for two weeks to get a medicated numbing spray to ease in the painful procedure I'm put through daily. The facility had a recent change in Administrators, and while the previous administrator was largely ineffective in making a lot of changes, under the current administrator of about a month, there seem to be fewer CNAs on duty, more CNAs and nurses working double shifts and not up to their usual efficiency, and poorer quality meals. The current administrator hasn't even made the time to introduce himself to the residents leaving one to wonder if he's leveraging patient care against budget constraints. Or maybe he's just not interested. Don't leave your loved one here unless you're prepared to advocate and participate in their care.

The best part of this facility is the people working here! Everyone is truly caring from nurses, social workers, pharmacists, admission, doctors and more. This was my first experience with a skilled nursing facility, I was impressed with how much they do for the patients to keep them taken care of, fed well, entertained and on the way to fast recovery. My dad himself has expressed his gratitude multiple times towards all the care takers that assisted him, he felt especially at home when some of the nurses spoke to him in his native tongue. He recovered in just a week. Admission was fast and accomadating. They took care of connecting with Insurance company and helped my dad to move in first before I had a chance to go the next day to fill in paper works. I met the entire care team and was really impressed with their patience and attention to detail. I had left a note for them on a few things about my dad's condition and they promptly scheduled a meeting with me to go over them line by line. If anything, my whole family felt heard and taken care of. Definitely recommend the place!

She had physical therapy, played bingo 3 times a week and worked at least 2 crossword puzzles each day. While everyone was caring, a special shoutout goes to JoAnn and Evar! The director of activities was especially nice as well. While no one wants to see their loved one go into a facility, sometimes there is no other alternative. If the need arises, I highly recommend Valley Pointe SNF. My mom, Ms Bennie, transitioned at Eden Hospital, on October 15, 2025. Thanks to all the staff who made a difference the last 3 1/2 months of her life. Barbara Cogar Daughter

3/5 Stars (Could Have Been Higher)…read more I was 40 years old when I stayed here, and by far the youngest resident. My roommate was close to 80 years old, which made for an interesting experience. Despite our age difference, I came to respect and admire him. What kept this from being a 5-star review was the food, the uncomfortable bed, the very small shared rooms, my television being much smaller and positioned much closer to the bed than my roommate's, and the nighttime noise. Some residents struggled with mental health or other conditions, and there were nights when patients would yell, making it difficult to sleep. I ended up staying for eight nights and nine days. Looking back, I believe another two or three days would have benefited my recovery, as I was still struggling with significant pain and difficulty walking when I was discharged. Although my insurance covered my stay, I felt that my Kaiser representative was too eager to move me out and didn't fully appreciate the severity of my condition. Unfortunately, that reminded me of my initial visit just days before I ended up in the emergency room, when I was only prescribed ibuprofen despite the pain I was experiencing. Some fellow patients encouraged me to appeal the discharge decision and fight to stay longer. However, I was physically exhausted, emotionally vulnerable, and simply didn't have the strength to advocate for myself at that point. In hindsight, I think a more formal discharge meeting that included me in the decision-making process would have been the better approach. Even if the outcome had been the same, I would have felt that my concerns and readiness to leave had been fully considered. That said, there were many positives. The staff, for the most part, were attentive, compassionate, and genuinely cared about the patients. I did have one negative experience with a staff member who fit every stereotype of someone who shouldn't be working in healthcare. I emailed the administrator about my concerns, and to his credit, he came to my bedside almost immediately, shook my hand, listened to me respectfully, and removed that employee from my wing. I appreciated how seriously he took my concerns. The physical therapy team was outstanding. They welcomed me from day one, even though I was hesitant to socialize because I was overwhelmed, heavily medicated, and had just been discharged from the emergency room. Their encouragement and professionalism played a huge role in my recovery. I was admitted after my back suddenly gave out to the point where I couldn't walk. At my lowest moment, I truly feared I might never walk again. Being surrounded by others who were also fighting their own battles gave me perspective and gratitude. I realized how fortunate I was to have the insurance and benefits that allowed me to recover in a facility like this. The location was also convenient, making it easy for family, friends, and coworkers to visit me during a difficult time. While there are definitely areas that need improvement, especially the food, sleeping accommodations, and room setup, the caring staff, excellent therapy team, and responsive administration made a difficult chapter in my life much more manageable.

Each room is alway clean and the building is properly staffed. In fact the staffing to resident ratio seem great. There is always someone to ask for help when necessary. Meals are complete and has a good variety. Caretaking of the patients is on schedule and the staff are friendly. The level of engagement with the patient is also great. My dad's mental state is diminished, but the stuff still finds ways to interact with him. I often visit my dad and find that he is in a group activity that ranges from bingo, karaoke, and watching movies to name a few. I want to give a shout out to our case manager, Cynthia, who is always supportive and respond quickly to questions that we may have. Also to my dads physical therapist, Dominic, who always have a friendly demeanor, understanding tone, supportive nature, and most importantly patience to try and get my dad back to baseline. We also sincerely appreciate all the care and attentiveness to all the nurses that provides care to my dad around-the-clock.

While the EMT's were trying to revive my mother, a nurse from the facility called and asked me what I wanted to do with her body. They didn't bother getting this info upfront and I was forced to send her to their default mortuary. When I called to ask to collect her belongings they told me they had to find them.
