My mom was there for several months for skilled nursing and rehabilitation. They successfully helped her build back her strength and now she is home. The facility is very clean, bright and has an overall good feel to it. The people who work there are some of the best. You can tell that they care deeply about the residents especially Trevor Ivey, and also the physical therapist, Joe. The nurses, the CNA's, the front desk staff are all pleasant, professional and create an environment where residents feel comfortable and family feels comfortable to visit. It's not easy for family or your loved one who needs to go to skilled nursing, but the team at Desert Springs make it a lot better because you know they're at a good place with good care. My mom has so many great things to say about the staff. They bonded with her and treated her wonderfully. I highly recommend Desert Springs.
