Overall Review of Fountain View Subacute and Nursing Center

common 13 reviews mention this

Caring nursing staff stands out

Residents and families consistently describe attentive, caring staff.

Many reviews say the nursing team and CNAs are professional, responsive, and respectful in day-to-day care. Several families specifically mention communication around concerns and medication help, and describe staff as present and supportive. A few reviews also acknowledge moments when care felt delayed, but still often point back to staff members who tried to help.

common 6 reviews mention this

Facility cleanliness is mixed

Cleanliness receives both praise and serious complaints.

Some reviews describe a clean facility with no foul odors, and note cleanliness as part of the positive impression. Others report dirty or smelly conditions, stained items, and bathrooms that were not maintained. These opposing descriptions show that cleanliness isn’t uniformly experienced across residents’ stays.

caveat 7 reviews mention this

Neglect and safety concerns recur

Some residents describe neglect, weak safety controls, and poor follow-through.

Several critical reviews mention neglect-related outcomes, including residents being rushed back to hospitals and issues with infection risk. Other complaints focus on limited security, poor phone access, and staff not enforcing rules consistently. A number of these reviews also describe communication breakdowns, such as difficulty getting in touch or doctors not being involved promptly.

caveat 3 reviews mention this

Comfort issues with TV, calls, and temperature

Residents report problems with comfort, including temperature and connection issues.

Some reviews describe TV and phone service that didn’t work reliably, along with delays in getting calls answered. Others say rooms ran very cold or very hot, and that the thermostat controls were out of their reach. Together, these comments point to day-to-day comfort and communications not consistently meeting expectations.

caveat 2 reviews mention this

Food can feel limited

Dining satisfaction varies, with some residents saying portions are too small.

A couple of reviews say food portions were skimpy or not good, and that they had to ask for more. At the same time, the community provides meal preparation and service and supports special dietary needs such as diabetes diets and special dietary restrictions. For some residents, the challenge appears to be portioning and taste rather than diet support itself.

  • A neatly arranged dining room with decorated tables, chairs, and bright lighting.
  • A slice of frosted cake on a white plate.
  • A plate of food featuring chicken, yellow rice, carrots, and a tortilla.
