What this means for your family
Gateway Vista offers excellent therapy services and a strong sense of community for long-term residents. However, families should be aware of significant reports regarding understaffing and communication lapses during medical emergencies. We strongly recommend asking for a tour of the specific wing your loved one will occupy and requesting a meeting with the nursing director to discuss their specific plan for call-light response times.

Key Review Excerpts
“The therapy is exceptional. They are very good about being available to communicate with the family, and asking answering all your questions.”
“Some staff were caring, however the majority made me feel like they could care less about helping my family member. Missed therapy (OT/PT was sporadic), missed meds, meds given at incorrect times.”
“I found the nursing staff to be wonderful. However, my mother was transported to the hospital on three different occasions due to injury and not one time did they contact me.”
