Westwood Post Acute | Denver, CO
Welcome to
Westwood Post Acute
We are a skilled nursing home in Denver, Colorado rated five stars in quality focused on the safety, wellness, and healing of our patients.
I’ve had the privilege of partnering with Westwood Post Acute as a hospice liaison over the last month, and I have to say the transformation has been wonderful to watch! What stands out most is the heart behind the changes. Communication with our hospice team is quick, clear and thoughtful. The nursing staff and CNAs have been warm and attentive. It is clear the team genuinely cares and it shows in the interactions.
Programs are run well and the staff are very helpful
The staff is so kind to my father,
They are really doing A great job with the building and workers . I was impressed I must say . I want to especially thank Ms.Claudette . Thank you for being A great nurse . There was A minor situation and even though it wasn’t her patient she sprung into action as soon as I told her the problem. She took out the time to handle it with it being her number one priority. She is the true definition of A great nurse . thank you again .
So impressed with the staff, leadership and care this team provides to each resident!
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.
