Every Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) is required to operate within a strict set of guidelines and regulations from the Department of Health (DOH).

To determine compliance, every SNF is visited unannounced by a group of DOH personnel whose responsibility includes methodical inspections of the facility, or if needed, extended investigations of activities that may demonstrate irregularities outside of normal SNF operations. This visit is called a "survey" or a State Inspection.

Depending on the severity of deficiency findings from the "survey", an SNF can be cited, penalized and required to comply, or to the extent of the law, maybe ordered to shut down operations.

We at Valle Vista Convalescent Hospital are proud to present to you our survey ratings from our past years of operations. This is available to you at the Medicare website, or ask us about it during your visit to our facility.

The survey result will provide you with useful information in choosing a skilled nursing facility for your loved one.

We are confident that you will positively decide to choose our facility based on this"survey" information.
