We really like the nursing staff and the manager, our only complaint we have about the place is over the weekends there are no regular staff members. The rooms are nice, and our loved ones thing the food is good.
So far I'm very satisfied with Villa Ventura!!! I'm extremely pleased with [name removed] who set the expectation for the facility!!! She went over and beyond to accommodate getting my mom situated with limited notice. Most of the Interim Home Health staff are great as well. I'm grateful that the facility took appropriate action to keep the residences safe during this pandemic!!! I would recommend Villa Ventura!!!
It's very welcoming. There are a lot of friendly people, even for somebody who is moving from far away. There are a lot of activities, and the apartments are very nice. I like the layout and the fact that she has a full kitchen even if she doesn't use it. The bedroom is large, and they were willing to work with me on the location in the facility so she would have a view that would make her happy. They do what they say they'll do. My mom loves it here. Her only complaint is she says it Midwest food, with not enough protein and too many carbohydrates.
