My husband is a 79 year old Viet Nam vet who has been at the SCPA for the 20 days covered by Medicare after a hospital stay. He has been given the great and caring care by the staff. He has many medical issues plus has Alzheimer's..He is a huge fall risk which adds to the difficulty in his care. I wish he could stay there, but it is not a contracted facility with the VA. He has to be moved and I am extremely sorry for that. There is truly not enough places for a vet to go.I cannot say enough about SCPA. Diane Dearinger

The facility is kept very clean, majority of staff kind and compassionate. Having spent time in many Skilled care homes over the years with elderly parents, family in rehab, etc. I do find this to be very loud. I have never been somewhere where the staff holler back and forth down the hall, out from the rooms, cnas laughing and conversing outside of patient doors. Mobile patients rolling around playing music even. I also feel that the glass sliders in rooms are nice, but...one can see right in. Perhaps need to be tinted. A man's room is right across the patio from my sister's room. Often staff doesn't pull blind while changing her. Those are things I'd keep an eye on if you're finding yourself or a loved one staying at Santa Cruz Post Acute.

I highly recommend Santa Cruz Post Acute for your love ones. I visited several other facilities prior to registering my mother. It is managed by considering every individual patient care and need in mind. I can’t thank Jessica Moran, Business Director, enough for providing such high level of care.

Santa Cruz Post Acute nursing home is a clean, bright, and welcoming place. From the moment I arrived, the staff gave me their full attention and the administrator kindly showed me around. The admitting staff were kind, polite, and highly professional. I noticed that the residents looked comfortable and well cared for, which was very reassuring. The admission process was quick and I appreciated how each case seemed to be handled with genuine care according to individual needs. The fresh white decor creates a peaceful atmosphere and gives you a true sense of safety, comfort, and love for your loved ones. Tatyana Rekow

I cannot speak highly enough about the care and professionalism of the Santa Cruz Post Acute staff. Jessica Moran, Director of Business Development, has made us feel welcomed and supported. She is attentive, compassionate and consistently went above and beyond to ensure the transition of a family member. Her communication was a standout. She kept us informed every step of the way, and any questions or concerns were addressed promptly and respectfully. It gave us piece of mind knowing our loved one would be placed in a good place. Her dedication and kindness throughout our communication was much appreciated.
