My father recently had neck surgery and originally wanted to go to Topanga Terrace since he had been there before. When it came time for discharge, that unfortunately wasn’t an option and we were given the choice between going to Santa Monica or staying local at West Valley Post Acute in West Hills. I can’t say enough good things about the care he received at West Valley Post Acute. The staff went above and beyond for my 79-year-old father, who at the time couldn’t walk or take care of himself. Every single person we encountered treated him with kindness, patience, and genuine compassion. They truly made a difficult time much easier for our family and I’m incredibly grateful. Honestly, everyone on that team deserves recognition (and a raise). I would highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for quality care for their loved one.

My dad just recently was there for six weeks post op and rehabilitation for his hip replacement. The level of care the staff has provided my father has been wonderful. The facility was clean and welcoming. The staff from CNA's, Nursing, Front desk, Rehab/therapists and Social Worker Maya were so kind, helpful and supportive. I am grateful for the care they provide him.

Do not put your loved ones here. She came to this place under the recommendation of ucla west hills hospital. They don't provide proper care. Mom went into septic shock and got a respiratory infection. She sat in her own filth for hours. She was lucky to get one change in 24 hours. This caused a stage 4 pressure wound. No wound care. We will be seeking legal action. Protect your loved one from this horrible place. Nice and clean from the outside and they cannot be trusted.

West Valley Post Acute is the best post acute facility in the Valley. My mother has been to 3 different post hospital rehab facilities over the last 4 years and this one is by far the best. The facility is always clean, it doesn't smells the staff are caring. The therapists are awesome. Social Worker Maya is always willing to go above and beyond, she gave me and my wife her personal cell phone if we had any concerns. I highly recommend this facility.

My dad has been there for 2 weeks and this place has been the best rehab ever. My dearly departed mother was in a few rehabs in the valley and none were as nice as WHPA. The place is relatively new and the rooms are clean. My dad actually likes the food and asked us to bring him food again. Most importantly, the staff have been amazing. They’re all very helpful, friendly, and have a great attitude. Mariam, the head nurse is an absolute angel. My dad will need another surgery in a month and we are definitely bringing him back here.
