Did not know what to expect at a rehabilitation facility after my knee surgery. Staff must take happy pills before coming to work as they are so supportive and friendly. Food is served in room or community room. Good food. Physical therapy team is great and prepared me to be able to function at home. My Medicare Advantage type covered all costs. So grateful my choice for rehabilitation was Western Slope.

My mother spent the last six months of her life at Western Slope. What a blessing they were. The care she received was extraordinary. She was always clean and dressed. My dad visited her everyday and they embraced him as well as my mom and he considers them friends. The food is excellent and they post a menu for the day. The facility is extremely clean and well-kept. Visitors are required to sign in and out. In all the times I went to see my mom, the facility smelled amazing. In the main lobby they serve cookies fresh out of the oven and spa water. When my mom passed I can't tell you how many of the people on staff cried and hugged my dad. The administrator is responsive. I would trust my family with Western Slope. I also wanted to add that it looks like the picture shown on their website.

My husband spent nearly a month at Western Slope and I will always be grateful for the care and kindness he received. Before deciding on Western Slope, I went to the Medicare site to research ratings on care facilities from Placerville to Roseville. I focused on those with the best patient outcomes related to mobility and the ability to care for themselves at discharge. The whole point of my husband's stay was to build his strength to both prevent future falls and to allow him to get up if he did fall. I toured five care facilities and Western Slope was the clear winner. You learn a lot about the culture and values of a facility by visiting. Is the front lobby staff welcoming and helpful? Are the residents enjoying that beautiful lobby shown in the brochures or is it off limits to them? Is the staff interacting with the residents in the halls, or just walking by them? The culture and "vibe" at Western Slope was exactly what I was looking for. Ann greeted me from the front desk. Alana was walking through the lobby and stopped to answer my questions and show me around. Robyn, who runs the physical therapy program answered all my questions and showed me the equipment. During my husband's stay, Robyn's team provided excellent physical and occupational therapy and Robyn stopped by occasionally just to check in with him. My husband appreciated every member of that team and it was wonderful to see his confidence build as he became stronger and could do more. There is a level or caring and a team spirit at Western Slope that doesn't happen by accident, it requires leadership. I credit Devin, the site administrator for building that sense of community. Some examples of what I mean by community: Kimber, a nursing assistant would take it upon herself to answer my husband's call light if she was walking by, even if he wasn't on her patient list that day. Treasure, Omar, and Rebecca did the same, and all of them did it with a smile. When my husband thought a piece of equipment in rehab would be easier to use if it had pedal straps, Devin stopped by his room to talk more about it and then ordered the straps. I have more examples than room to list them, but you get the idea. Taking my husband to a care facility was one of the hardest things I've ever done. Bring him home a month later stronger and able to stand up unassisted was one of the best days of my life. Do your research and make in-person visits but for me, if I or a loved one ever needs care again, I'll go here.

Posting review from my husband who had a major stroke on September 1st: When the hospital released me, they sent me to a rehab place that was supposed to be the best for recovery in the Placerville area. I had a lot of trouble there with depression, insomnia, anxiety, and anger, and requested to move to another location. When I got to Western Slope there was a smoking section outside. I took a couple hits on my nicotine vape and I was restored to better spirits immediately. So I looked up the side effects of cold turkey withdrawal from nicotine, and a report from the internet shows some of the common symptoms include: feeling frustrated, irritable or angry, feeling sad or depressed, feeling anxious of jumpy, trouble concentrating, trouble sleeping (insomnia). Who could get better with all those symptoms of nicotine withdrawal? Another good thing about moving to Western Slope Healthcare, was they have a button that opens the doors to the outside where the other place didn't. The first place had a million-dollar dining room, but the money would be better spent on doors that opens open itself. That should be a law for people in wheelchairs and walker's trying to get out in and out of those heavy doors by themselves. At the first place they seemed like they were concentrating on your physical health, at Western Slope they treated the whole body, mind and spirit. I enjoyed my stay there for most of the part, with some outstanding help from Kimber and other nurse assistants that came in to help me - they are the true angels of the world, doing a divine service, helping those who cannot help themselves. Also had great results from Jake with physical therapy. So overall, it's not paradise, they do have hospital food with no salt, but I'm giving them five stars and highly recommend them. -- B. Hooper
