BEST place if you want staff that actually cares about the residents. New Admin, New DON, New Social Service Director, New Infection Prevention Nurse. Some of the reviews here appear to be before my time but a lot has changed, Give the facility a chance to show you a personalized approach versus judging the building on past reviews, stop by and see for yourself.

Everyone at Westwood Post Acute Care is informative, courteous and kind. They are taking great care of my mother in what could have been an extremely stressful time. They are on top of every detail regarding my mother's cares and needs. A special mention to Sonya, the facility's Business Office Manager. She has consistently gone above and beyond for my mother, navigating the thorny and confusing world of medical coverage. Thank you Sonya!

My sister was sent here after knee replacement surgery. She received great care by professional and caring staff members. Julie Flaminiano, was so kind and wonderful. We had a lot of questions when she first came here, and she went out of her way to help us with everything. Even after we left, we were able to contact her to ask questions and ask about resources. She made the whole process so easy. And I highly recommend this facility and especially Julie!
