South Valley Post Acute Rehabilitation sits in historic south Glendale, just off the 25 Freeway, and has 106 beds with spacious private and semi-private rooms, offering a clean and modern space for both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care needs. The skilled nursing staff provides care all day and night under the guidance of in-house physicians, while in-house therapy teams bring state-of-the-art and hands-on approaches, covering physical, occupational, and speech therapy, plus specialty areas like wound care, neurological recovery, balance, fall risk reduction, pain control, lymphedema, swallowing help, and pulmonary programs. The therapy team, with full-time staff including PTs, OTs, COTAs, PTAs, and speech-language pathologists, works closely with nursing, social services, families, and the community to make sure every resident gets a treatment plan that fits their needs, adjusting services from intensive rehab to daily therapy or maintenance care, and they keep families involved during admissions, care, and discharge planning.
The facility welcomes residents with a rich activities program, arranging group outings in a van equipped with a secure wheelchair lift, trips to local churches on Sundays, and in-house social events like ice cream socials, movie nights, arts and crafts, music appreciation, and lectures; local artists and musicians visit often, especially during special occasions that bring people of all faiths together. Residents, with their families, meet with staff to talk over hobbies, interests, and routines, helping to shape monthly activity calendars full of choices to engage the body, mind, and spirit, and social areas like patios and card rooms let folks connect at their own pace.
South Valley Post Acute Rehabilitation keeps quality care at the center, following a holistic plan for each resident, addressing daily needs like nutritious meals, laundry, and housekeeping, while therapists get continuous education to offer the latest in treatment. Programs range from stroke and joint replacement rehab to hospice, respite care, memory care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, and support groups for families and caregivers. Residents can choose between studio or companion apartments; everyone shares access to the amenities, landscaped grounds, and transportation for appointments or activities. Medicare.gov has given this place a 5-star overall rating, and the Ensign Group manages it. The team checks each resident's abilities after every treatment, performs home assessments when needed, and works to make sure people recover and go home when possible or enjoy a comfortable stay if they're there longer term.
