What this means for your family
Fountain View shows strong results for short-term rehabilitation, with many patients praising the therapy team. However, families should be cautious regarding long-term care; ensure you have a clear plan for monitoring personal belongings and establish a direct line of communication with a specific staff member, as responsiveness is a frequently cited concern.

Key Review Excerpts
“I truly believe that without the care he received, we would have lost him much sooner. No place is perfect, and I would never expect it to be—but Fountain View is filled with people who consistently do the right thing and care for their residents with genuine compassion.”
“The therapists Meagan and Kyle were wonderful in helping me get back on my feet. The nurses; Carlos Stephanie,Megan Adon, Sherri where there for me and helped to alleviate any pain I had to go thru.”
“Poor communication, my MIL is currently there and we cant ever get ahold of anyone. When she was in isolation she didn't have a phone, and we'd be put on hold for over 20 min.”
