Key Review Excerpts
“The wonderful physical and occupational therapists got me able to walk again in that short time. The Residents are friendly and in the short stay I had we started to become family.”
“The care and compassion the staff has for our loved ones is so reassuring and takes worry off of me.”
“My dad is a resident there and this has been the breakfast he has been given on numerous occasions. I have had to bring him food from where I work because either what they give him is burnt and nasty or it’s not enough.”

Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History
3-year lookback · Medicare 2026
Mountain View Care Center has concerning recurring problems across multiple surveys, with families filing complaints that triggered 10 additional inspections. The facility repeatedly struggles with food service and nutrition, fire safety systems, and resident rights issues. While all 90 deficiencies show correction dates, the persistence of similar problems—particularly around meal quality, sprinkler systems, and resident care planning—across four surveys suggests ongoing operational challenges that warrant careful consideration during any visit.
