Working in a hospital, I make many referrals to various skilled nursing facilities and care centers. I have never been so impressed with a facility before. The team at Desert View Care Center are highly professional and efficient. They provided clear and precise communication, which other facilities have lacked. The work done on the administrative side reflects on the care provided in the facility. If your loved one is being cared for at Desert View Care Center, they are in good hands.

I enjoyed the staff and there are plenty of activities to keep me occupied. The care I received was excellent in all aspects. They listened to my needs and respected my wishes in all aspects of my care. Made some great friends that I will continue to visit. If I ever need to return to a facility of this type I will choose Desert View.

I have been here a couple times to see people and it is so sad in there everything is broken and the patients are asking for help and they get ignored, I have seen people sitting in the hallway soiled because no one took them to the bathroom and everyone is sitting around, if you love your family take them anywhere but here.

The administrator shows favoritism towards certain residents. She lets some residents do whatever they want. The other residents she treats like second class citizens.
