What this means for your family
Schmitt Woodland Hills is highly regarded for its clean environment and dedicated staff, making it a strong candidate for long-term care. However, because of the serious concerns raised regarding end-of-life care, we recommend that families specifically discuss their palliative care protocols and communication expectations with the administration before admission.

The facility has also had deficiencies in protecting residents from abuse and neglect, with families filing complaint-triggered reports in 2023.
