My mother was admitted to Milpitas Care Center about three years ago following a stay in a nearby ICU. Her doctor prescribed a skilled nursing facility to provide physical therapy, cardiac-sensitive dietary management, and assistance with her daily care needs. During that time, my mother ultimately requested to remain there in long-term care. This transition was a major change for both of us, since we’ve always been very close, but I’m grateful for the attentiveness and consistency of the staff at Milpitas Care Center. In my work life, I’ve delivered medical oxygen to a number of nursing homes throughout the Bay Area, so I’ve had opportunities to observe different facilities and get a feel for their cleanliness, professionalism, and overall level of care. Over time, I’ve found Milpitas Care Center to be consistent in the way they care for my mother, and the results show it. Her heart health, weight, and psychiatric condition have stabilized compared to her most recent years at home. She now has opportunities to socialize and make friends, while CNAs and nurses are nearby around the clock. The staff has also been good about contacting me whenever medical issues arise, which I deeply appreciate as her son and caregiver. I can honestly say that my mother is in good hands here, and I’m thankful they’re close to home for our family.
