4/5
Honestly Palm valley has a ways to go to get 5 stars. On the other hand they do have several people who deserve to be praised. First and foremost there head nurse , Shalamar is an exceptional leader. Attentive Caring and Responsive only scratches the service. She really believes the patient is number one and after being a patient at Palm vally with a broken hip , I can personally verify this. She's really exceptional. To that end, most everyone here has a mission of making the patient feel special. Most notably a nurse named Neal. He's so good at his job. This guy punches all the marks. So does Inez. She's another exceptional nurse. Very caring and responsive to the patients needs. There physical therapy department is truly wonderful. Exceptionally staffed and equipped but one of the true standouts is a physical therapist named Cecilia. Tough and focused on your rehabilitation but as kind has kind can be. She really knows how to walk the line between working you and holding your hand. An exceptional person. There lucky to have her. Respiratory therapy is another area of service that Palm Valley provides. Hands down, Kyle leads the way with unparalleled knowledge and skill not to mention a engaging personality. Last but not least is a CNA named Ana. I must say , most of the CNAs are great, this one, Ana, is over the top. My lord this one's a real gem. There isn't anything she wouldn't do to make your journey here has pleasant has possible. Frankly , I could go on and on but I think I made my point. Oh, the 5th star, that would be the food. It's pretty poor. Consistently cold with very little taste and imagination. I think theyimprove with time. In closing. It's a great post acute facility. I've been here for 24 days and I should be discharged within a few days and I owe all of my care and rehab to Palm Valley. Harry Lucchesi
