My sister was so well treated and cared for at the Beacon Health Care Center that she cried on the day she checked out, saying she would miss everyone there. All of the Beacon staff members worked as a team to make her as comfortable and happy as possible. Beacon provided professional and intensive therapy to restore mobility in her legs, and to treat major sores on her feet and posterior areas. All areas of the facility were kept clean and good smelling. The atmosphere was pleasant, quiet, and stress free. The office members were efficient and personable. The Social Services Director Araceli Ponce and her Support Staff were tremendously helpful in providing information about Carmen’s needs, progress, insurance coverage, and what other institutions could provide care beyond her stay at Beacon.

I had a great experience at Beacon. It’s an excellent facility for rehabilitation. The physical therapists were outstanding-professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to helping me recover. Every employee was helpful, kind and always greeted me with a smile. The positive attitude made a big difference in my healing. The food was good too! Highly recommend.

I'm currently being cared for here after having a total right hip replacement at Emante Health Queen of the valley hospital.. I was given a list of SNF in the area by Emante Health's coordinator Delaney who recommended this facility. After a transition from the hospital to Beacon Healthcare Center I must say my needs are being met beyond what I anticipated.. the compassion here is incredible from the administrator Larry to the nurses as well as the therapist that has me going through therapy 2 times a day.. my recovery after surgery has been going very well since I've been here .. for those who have loved ones that need support and care after surgeries or for other unexpected medical reasons I highly recommend this small but very clean establishment..
