What this means for your family

The staff at Valley Crest are frequently described as exceptionally loving and patient, which is vital for memory care. However, you must perform your own due diligence regarding hygiene and meal quality, as there are documented instances of neglect and poor food standards. We recommend visiting during meal times and asking specifically about their protocols for incontinence care and hygiene monitoring.

Key Review Excerpts

The caretakers and med techs at this facility are super kind and attentive to their patients!! Naomi at the front desk has a wonderful positive attitude with anyone that comes in and especially the residents.

Memory care family member · 2025★★★★★

I watched without the staff knowing I saw true caring from all the workers, standing off to the side I realized these ppl really practice what they preach. The patience and love was refreshing.

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

She did not have anyone check on her all day until the evening. She developed UTI's several times and needed to go to the hospital because she was not being changed enough.
