I can’t say enough good things about Westwood Post Acute. The staff consistently go above and beyond to provide top-notch care and genuinely treat residents with dignity and compassion. Communication with families is excellent. Annika and Shae in Social Services and Deb the Director of Nursing always keeps families informed about changes, progress, and ways to support their loved one. The building is clean, well-maintained, and welcoming. There’s always meaningful activities, therapy, and engagement happening, and you can tell residents feel respected and cared for. The leadership team sets high standards, and it shows in the day-to-day interactions from nursing to housekeeping to dietary. It’s never an easy decision to place a loved one in long-term care, but knowing they are in an environment where they are safe, supported, brings peace of mind to families and their loved one. The consistency in the leadership team as well as all of the positive changes that have happened in the last year also speaks volumes to the dedication each and every employee has for the best interest in the residents. Truly exceptional care — highly recommend.
