This place is amazing and so is the staff. Friendly, accommodating and helpful. It was so hard because of our insurance but they made the process smooth and easy. I don’t know what I would have done without them.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this skilled nursing facility. My father was a resident here, and the care he received was truly exceptional. During a difficult time for our family, the staff treated him with kindness, dignity, respect, and genuine compassion. Every nurse, caregiver, therapist, and staff member we encountered went above and beyond to make sure my father was comfortable and well cared for. They were attentive to his needs, patient with him, and always treated him as a person, not just a patient. The staff also took the time to keep our family informed and made us feel welcome whenever we visited. Knowing my father was in such caring hands gave me tremendous peace of mind. The compassion shown to him and our family is something I will never forget. Even after his passing, I remain deeply grateful for the care and support they provided during such an important chapter of his life. If you are looking for a skilled nursing facility where your loved one will be treated with dignity, respect, and genuine care, I highly recommend this facility. Thank you to everyone who helped care for my father. Your kindness made a lasting impact on our family. Forever grateful,

If I could give no stars I would!!!! My loved one is at the hospital and is in need of a facility for Rehab. I received a phone call from a BRENDA from this facility. I informed her that I had already chosen a different facility and she went on to tell me that the facility I chose had no beds available and my only option was to go to her facility. So I believed her and said it was fine. Then a while later the facility that I originally wanted reached out to me. I let them know that BRENDA called me and told me that there was no beds available at his facility and that I had to go with her. He was in shock that was said to me because she does not work with him. Either way stay away from this facility they are not honest and its obvious that she (BRENDA) is a liar and I can only imagine all the other stuff she would say to people to convince them to go to her facility. This is so sad and unprofessional on her part. I really hope that this has only happened to me and this is not part of her work Ethic. but honestly I doubt it. Sorry if this is so long but this is actually my first time leaving a review but my heart told me that I needed to warn the community about this Facility. Good Luck to others who are in need.

I’m very happy with this place. They have done a great job of taking care of my dad. He has made a very speedy recovery. The care and concern has been the best we’ve experienced.

I am 80 years old and broke my arm. After my hospital stay, I needed therapy and continued care to be able to go home and continue my independent living. Antelope Valley Care Center is where I decided to go to. All the bad stories I had heard about rehabilitation centers turned out to be wrong. The level of care, professionalism and cleanliness here was over the top. They went out of their way to care for my physical needs and had in house entertainment available while I was being cared for. What more could you want? Well…good food. I even put on a couple of pounds here. I never thought I would miss a place such as this, but I will. I was treated like family. Can’t ask for more than that.
