Update two months later: My father is now in a real rehabilitation hospital and the difference is…read moreunbelievable. He's walking with a walker, progressing daily, and finally getting the care he needed all along. The administrator at Mountain View, Joji D. Gervacio, once told me coldly and confidently that "this was his life now," meaning he was literally bedridden and couldn't do anything. She said that was his life and he was incapable of recovery. Two months later, she was proven completely wrong. If we had accepted her words, I truly believe my dad would not be where he is today. This review is to say: Don't take everything they say as final. Don't give up hope. And if you get a call from that administrator, stay sharp, ask questions, and trust your instincts.

Negligent and Unacceptable Care…read more My grandfather was at Mountain View Rehab Center, and the experience was absolutely horrifying. We repeatedly told the staff that something was wrong with him, but they ignored our concerns and dismissed us completely. It wasn't until he vomited twice--and we insisted again that something was seriously wrong--that they finally decided to call an ambulance. By that point, his condition had worsened so badly that he had to be rushed back to the ICU. This could have been prevented if they had just listened and acted earlier. The lack of attention, urgency, and basic compassion was shocking. This place failed our family in a major way, and I would not recommend trusting them with the care of a loved one.

When we decided it was time to find him a place where he could get the help he needed, we had no idea where to start or how to find a suitable facility. Thankfully we found Assisted Living Connections and Jennahway. Jennahway spent time hearing us out and helped us understand our options, and we loved that she clearly had an in depth knowledge of the areas we were looking in and what was available, pros and cons, etc. She even provided a document with advice and questions to ask when we went on tours. We ultimately found the perfect place for our needs and had no hesitation in knowing it was home. Going through this process is stressful, emotional, and time consuming. If I was to give one piece of advice, it would be to start by calling Assisted Living Connections to ease some of these pressures and facilitate the process. We never felt any pressure to move more quickly than our own pace and it was great to have Jennahway by our side. There are so many options out there in LA, let the experts help and support your family to find the perfect fit.

I love it here!" Last night I got a text from her saying that she attended a mini classical concert in one of the residents rooms (that resident is known for her musical talents).
