What this means for your family

This facility is an excellent choice if you are looking for a warm, family-like atmosphere where staff prioritize dignity and social connection. However, if your loved one has advanced dementia requiring intensive daily prompting, you should verify that the actual daily care routines match the promises made during your initial tour.

Key Review Excerpts

The staff is beyond amazing at Valley Comfort from administrative to caregivers. They took excellent care of my father in law. They were always available to answer questions and went above and beyond to meet his needs,which changed frequently and kept us informed.

Long-term resident's family · 2023★★★★★

My mom Virginia just loved it there. From day one, she was just amazed at all the Caregiver and how they treated her with respect and dignity, and she loved all of them. She was 96 years old and all of her friends had already passed away, but she made new ones there.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★☆☆☆

I would give them 10 stars if I could!!! My grandma has live here for about 5 years now and my family couldn't be happier with the care that she is receiving.
