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.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 73% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 39 findings, above the CA average of 15.4. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Families should approach this facility with significant caution due to recurring reports of severe neglect, including patients being left in soiled diapers for long periods and delayed responses to emergency calls. While some individuals praise specific therapists and certain staff members for excellent rehabilitative care, there is a pervasive pattern of complaints regarding understaffing and poor medication management.

Key Review Excerpts
“With gratitude and with much appreciation, I would like to thank West Hills Rehab for their excellent care and truly thank the therapists for the amazing therapy they provided to help me learn how to transfer and be able to take care of some of my needs during the time when my foot is fusing after surgery.”
“People were left in diapers for over 10 to 12 hours, calls for assistance were ignored, and I have never witnessed a medical staff so indifferent to the needs of their patients.”
“My late mother received excellent care; the physical therapists gave maximum effort, and place was clean, with a cute cat on the premises.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions.
