  I had my husband there for almost two weeks and was so happy with their service.<br>It was very clean no smell staff was great everyone very kind. Aynalm Anley the DON/RN was very accommodating and helpful, Darryl, Cordelia, Leslie, Tori, Anglica<br>Maria are the few names but all of the Personals were helpful and kind. I would recommend if you have loved ones that need rehab and care to take them there.🙏🙏🙏🥰

  A relative of mine stayed here for a short while, and our experience was very positive. The staff has been incredibly helpful throughout her stay. Maria from Activities stands out — she’s excellent at engaging residents and truly brings joy to the environment. The Business Office Manager, Jerine was very helpful in answering our questions and assisting with paperwork. Their Staff Developer, April was kind and very accommodating. The Administrator, Andy is especially sweet, caring, and genuinely devoted to both the staff and the patients. It’s clear that their team cares deeply and it made a difference in my grams comfort and recovery.

  My loved one received attentive medical support and made steady progress with the rehab team. The facility was clean, organized, and felt safe, which made a big difference during a challenging time. From the nurses to the therapists and activities, everyone we interacted with showed genuine kindness, patience, and professionalism. They made my loved one feel cared for and treated them with dignity every day.

  This is a truly awful facility. I had my elderly mother transferred out of there as quickly as possible due to the negligence of their staff.<br><br>The place is chaotic, unsafe, and poorly staffed.<br><br>Whenever I visited, the front door attendant was absent. I walked right in without anyone checking me in. When you call, nobody answers the phone. They keep you waiting for 15-30 minutes before the front receptionist finally picks up.<br><br>I will avoid this facility at all costs. I have informed my parents’ care team to never take them to Berkeley West.

  Whatever you do STAY AWAY from this dangerous place. The workers are EVIL and negligent no matter how many times you ask them for help when youre in pain. They ignore and abuse you. They abuse family members when they speak up. This is no place for any sick or elderly person. I have fallen several times with no one to help me and they dont even put a walker next to my bed .
