When we found out that my father-in-law would have to go to a skilled nursing facilty for an extended amount of time, we were really nervous as many local facilities don’t have the best reputation. Santa Cruz Post Acute was recommended by the hospitalist and so we decided to have him take residency there for a few months. We have been very happy with our choice – SCPA has exceeded all expectations! The facility is newly renovated and is light and clean and the layout is very well thought out. The care team and nurses have all been very kind and my father-in-law (who can be difficult/grumpy) actually seems to have built a good rapport with some of his “favorites” (which is unheard of). A few days after he was admitted, we had a case management meeting and we were pleasantly surprised to find out how much the SCPA staff does beyond taking care of his medical needs. Mayra (his case manager) is helping us think through what needs to happen to line up care after he is released and is helping us with his MediCAL application. Sandy (his social worker) is helping with arranging transport to doctor appointments and has been very helpful with all other odds and ends. The nutrionist and also the head nurse Anne were both so kind and funny – we walked away from that meeting feeling much lighter and less confused about how this all works. Working in a skilled nursing facility is not an easy job but it seems that everybody who we have interacted with genuinely enjoys being there and is taking pride in what they do. Thank you for making this difficult time for our family a more positive experience!

Santa Cruz post acute took wonderful care of my husband while he was there. Staff was always willing to help him and me with any questions. CNA’s were amazing with him and his therapy workers were such a gift. Their patience with him was greatly appreciated. Thank you to everyone again

I’m writing this review because Santa Cruz Post Acute has been good for my father. He is rehabbing post stroke and is progressing with his therapists. The staff has been very helpful in making sure they are attentive. I’m happy that Santa Cruz Post Acute is trying to do a good job. Not all nursing facilities are bad.
