Recently my husband spent nearly months at Camino Health Care. The care he received from the staff was outstanding. That includes the nursing staff like Anna Maria she always made my husband as well as other patients feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. The place is very clean. Housekeeping is very quick to respond to patient and staff needs. There are so many people to thank but here are just a few honorable mentions. Shane Curl, Patricia Patterson, Marietta Martin, Lorena in admissions and Lester Lebumfacil. Sorry I can't remember all of the name. Your Physical Therapy staff in unmatched. The therapy he received was vital in his recovery. The multi purpose room activities was so appreciated by patients and visitors. Thank you all again.

Samantha leads an excellent exercise class that is both fun and motivating. She creates a welcoming environment where everyone feels encouraged to participate at their own pace. Her positive energy and enthusiasm make each class enjoyable and something participants look forward to attending.

My name is Cesar Iñiguez. During the time my mother has been here at El Camino, I have had a very positive experience. From the moment you walk in, you are greeted kindly. The same goes for the supervisors, managers, nurses, CNAs, aides, volunteers, and all the rest of the staff. I am pleased with the care my mother receives, and I would like to thank the staff for all their hard work.

When I arrive today at the facility to visit a family member, it being my first time there. I was met with pleasantry, greeting with a smile. The front desk receptionist displayed kindness courtesy, And a great deal of respect. The staff that we're working. The staff working the hallways were also pleasant and courteous, And also displayed a smile as well. As my visit came to a end, I feel refreshed because I knew my family member Was in good hands, And that gave me a peace of mind while walking out the door. The facility was very well kept clean, and The atmosphere was very pleasant.
