Key Review Excerpts

“The physical therapists did do a great job. Yet the “skilled nursing” part of this treatment facility completely failed to manage my relatives health challenges to the point where she was unable to even do the physical therapy.”

Rehab patient family member · 2026★☆☆☆☆

“The Vi is a big ripoff! You have to pay an entrance fee of $565,200 for a one bedroom apt., $872,700 for two bedrooms and $1,327,900 for a two bedroom + den unit before you can move in.”

Prospective resident · 2026★☆☆☆☆

“My mom was admitted at the Vi for two weeks. The experience there was outstanding from the administration team, the nurse team, the housekeeping team, the kitchen team, the therapist team. Everything was top notch.”
