These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
No Medicare penalties on record
Mountain Villa Nursing Home has a strong overall Medicare rating. Public reviewers frequently mention: compassionate and loving nursing staff and homey atmosphere in certain settings. Review the component ratings and current source records before deciding.
Families should exercise extreme caution, as several reviewers report distressing incidents of medical neglect, residents in pain, and unaddressed cries for help. While some long-term residents' families praise the compassionate staff and homey atmosphere, there are recurring reports of poor facility hygiene and inadequate supervision of residents.
