Pleasant Valley Healthcare Rehabilitation Center sits under the direct ownership of Eastland Memorial Hospital District and has been managed by Primrose Healthcare, Inc., Burnam Peterson, and Skyler Peterson since July 2022, which means it has both strong local ties and hands-on oversight. The center holds 124 certified beds and usually cares for about 74 residents each day. Both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care are available here, and the staff offers skilled nursing services with 24-hour care under in-house physicians. Residents can stay in private or semi-private studios and companion apartments that are clean and well-kept, and everyone can enjoy the beautifully landscaped grounds, the handy patio, and many social and worship events. The menus in the dining room are both nutritious and satisfying, and the activity calendar has art, cards and games, movies, special outings, and regular transportation available.
The center offers physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy onsite, and there are specialized programs for post-surgical recovery and stroke rehabilitation, which help people regain strength, independence, and mobility with the help of experienced professionals. Care here covers both those who need help with day-to-day needs, like bathing and dressing, and those who are recovering from surgery or working to improve from a health event, including people with dementia who require extra attention. The staff's nurse turnover rate stands at 44.1%, which falls below the state average, though their reported nurse staffing levels are a bit under the state norm at 3.14 nursing hours per resident per day.
Pleasant Valley Healthcare Rehabilitation Center does have a total of 31 deficiencies from inspections, including four related to infection control, along with issues in areas like resident care plans, incontinence care, and following treatment preferences. PASARR screenings for mental and intellectual disabilities haven't always been completed as required. Even with these deficiencies, the facility has earned a reputation for good resident satisfaction, helpful and caring staff, and a strong focus on keeping families in the loop with care meetings and clear communication.
Other services include respite care for families, help with wound care and respiratory needs, as well as support for joint replacement and general wellness. Housekeeping and laundry are provided. Residents describe the facility as comfortable, cheerful, and focused on well-being, with regular attention from skilled nurses, therapists, and aides who use hands-on and modern therapy approaches. The sense of community stays high thanks to a wide range of activities and a friendly, attentive staff. Amenities make daily life a little brighter, and families value both the communication and the genuine effort put into personalized healthcare.
