Horrible, just horrible. It is ridiculous I have to hide behind a computer to talk about how bad it is working here. They don’t care a squat about their workers. Some of the laziest people work here, and what does that say about the care residents will receive.

West view is a place full of caring staff. No place is perfect but they genuinely care about their residents. This is a non profit operation so no, they are not in it for the money. They are constantly thinking of new ways to enhance the lives of those that live there . It is a special place and the work it hard, but they care about each and everyone who call it home.

Admission Director Tina Grassman is wonderful. She worked diligently both with Cleveland Clinic Hospital and our family to allow my father into the rehabilitation center. She’s a true professional. Thank you! Janet Malta

I have been going to classes at WestView Healthy Living for a month now. Staff and teachers are very nice, accommodating, and easy to talk to. There are so many classes - both pool and land - it’s hard to decide. The two I am attending are already helping my balance and I feel my muscles are getting a good workout. Class sizes are small and friendly. Good choice for seniors to workout and stay active.
