It was my first time being at this facility. I am a Mobile notary and needed to take care of some documents for a patient. The facility seemed nice, clean and the person at the front desk was very nice.

Verdugo Hills Montrose Skilled Nursing Facility has a very caring and compassionate staff. The medical professionals are very knowledgeable on their area of medical expertise. They knew how to comfort their patients psychologically, spiritually, and they lift the patients up to increase how the patients feel about themselves. The center is always very clean and my patient tells me that he really likes the food and the caring nature of the staff. The administration is very organized.

The staff here are incredibly thoughtful and kind. It’s not easy having a loved one in a home for any amount of time- but the kindness of the staff here make it so much better. In addition to that, I always have tons of questions, and the staff are always happy to answer my questions thoughtfully and completely. I never feel like I’m bothering them. A nice touch is that they have balloons and ribbons for holidays, like Valentine’s Day. It feels like the staff do everything they can to come in with a happy and bright energy.

It was definitely comforting to see how the staff treated us and more importantly our family members staying here under their care. The director himself came and spoke with us and reassured us that he is fighting for our family members health to be in good standing. We are pleased with the service provided.
