The staff at Diablo Valley were always kind, friendly, competent, and never difficult to deal with. Katrina in nursing and RJ in social services were especially stellar – they communicated constantly with me and were always timely and informative with any questions/concerns about my brother’s care. He was in this facility for 83 days and successfully transferred home. Diablo Valley and the staff there made a very challenging health situation easier to deal with, and ultimately, helped my brother heal. I definitely recommend them!
My grandpa is a patient here but hopefully he can come back home soon . He has had a lot of complications at the hospital and it was really scary for us. My parenrs and i were worried about picking this facility at first because we saw the bad reviews, but Diablo was the only place in the area that had availability. We have absolutely no regrets about sending him there because he is doing so much better. The nurses, cnas (most of them) and therapy have done a lot for him. the place doesn’t look fancy, it is pretty old (atleast its clean), but the staff really cares. They are not perfect but most of them give good care. We had some issues but Katrina helped sort them out and my mom and dad and I are so grateful she is there. She always updated us, answered our questions, and was always happy to see or talk to us. it felt like she became a part of the family and she had a big part in making sure my grandpa got the care he needed . Thank you to her and the rest of the staff!
I had my CNA Petal who is helpful,kind, symphatetic on time replyhelpful on my sadness. She is on a mission to help all of us 100% For sure I will miss her when I go home. cease are helpful and kind.Katrina from the office is amazing and helpful

My grandmother has been staying at Diablo Valley, and the improvements are incredible. My grandmother has been living at Diablo Valley for a while now, and I’ve been really impressed with how well she’s treated here. The staff is attentive, patient, and genuinely cares about the residents, you can feel it every time you walk in. They recently started renovating the facility, and the updates are honestly top of the line. The new lobby looks fantastic, modern, clean, and way more welcoming. It’s clear they’re investing in making the environment better for both residents and families, and it shows. Seeing the effort they’re putting into the place gives me a lot of peace of mind. I’m really grateful for the care my grandmother receives and excited to see the rest of the renovations as they continue.
Stopped by recently and was really impressed with the updates they’ve made. The new lobby renovation looks fantastic—clean, modern, and very welcoming. You can tell a lot of thought went into creating a comfortable space for residents and their families. It’s great to see a facility that’s investing in improvements and really taking pride in the environment they provide. The management team clearly cares about the quality of care and the overall experience for everyone who walks through the doors. If you’re looking for a skilled nursing facility that’s continuing to improve and invest in its community, this is definitely a place worth checking out. Excited to see the rest of the renovations as they continue!
You don’t get a sense that your loved one is in a good place. It feels like your loved one is left in an abyss. It’s depressing and dismal
After months of trying to get in contact with James the program director of this place, I decided to take a trip there. I was helped by a kind lady named Patty at the front desk, but she informed me James wasn’t available and would call me. The next day he did finally call and I had a very disappointing experience with James. He is discriminatory toward students who take online classes and will not allow you to apply for the CNA scholarship if you are in nursing school. When I called to explain that my school schedule would not affect my availability, he was outright rude. He repeatedly interrupted me and dismissed what I was saying. Instead of listening, he basically told me I had no chance. I’m not sure if this was based on bias or discrimination against students, but either way, it was unprofessional and discouraging especially considering that many CNAs pursue nursing as a career path. It’s disappointing to see someone in healthcare treat motivated students this way. I would not recommend this organization to anyone who values respect and professionalism.
The care was great. I’m off the wound vac and my injury is healing. Thanks to the professional ladies who worked on the wound
was sent here by Kaiser to recover from CHF and to walk again.. all my regular CNA’s from morning to pm to NOC were all perfect examples of good workers/ people. Johnrey morning, Carol/Caroline PM and Rosie NOC/Graveyard they are good examples of people who care and are professionals at what they do. Shoutout to Catherine and Meagan too who are morning CNA’s. There was also a registry nurse named Sharmaine who worked mornings and pm at times she was also a good CNA. Nurse Mika is really great at what she does and is very nice nd genuine, also nurse Cathleen who was basically my nurse case manager was very helpful and stayed in touch with my father. RJ is a very good social worker and helped me a lot as well. And the nurses who always made sure | was given meds on time like Ralph(AM), Gurdeep(PM) & Juan(NOC). There was another in the PM too but I forgot the name. The PT’s who regular saw and helped me were Alex and Rene, also OT was mostly Johnathan, they were all good therapists and very helpful. Overall my little over a month stay here was good.. there was also a very cute nurse l’d see roaming around sometimes named Kimmy, made my day every time I saw her.
Cna of my experience, it’s Manju Janelle, Patrick Hillwood, dessiia Elsa and the angry CNA Mr. Elliot I love these guys thank you so much. I appreciate your service. I like to say thank you to the wound care Kimberly Layla Trent Crazy Zellel and the best Remington Thanks so much my only concern is the kitchen using frozen canned vegetables. This is unhealthy and taste. Horrible you can use for vegetables. It’s much better. Please talk to the kitchen.
RJ social worker, Dr on staff, and nursing team all on point. Extremely friendly and helpful. They make the best of a rough situation for the patient. Social Services made great arrangements and coordinated in home care. Doctor arguably better than primary care physician and absolutely took the time to answer questions and check on my dad’s mental and physical readiness to go home. I have seen several of these places and while not fancy – it is safe and well attended.
My uncle is currently admitted to the facility. I will say everything has been amazing for the most part and everyone has been attending to him very well. The nurses are ok, but his CNA-David- has been attentive and taking great care of my uncle, and my uncle has nothing but nice things to say about him. I was hesitant to pick this facility due to the reviews left on here prior, but this facility has surpassed my expectations.
I had a great experience at this post-acute care facility. The therapy team was amazing—very professional, patient, and truly dedicated to helping residents improve and reach their goals. The AM nursing staff and treatment nurses were attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate, always making sure care was done properly and on time. The AM CNAs were hardworking, kind, and treated residents with respect and dignity. You can really see the teamwork and genuine care here. I would definitely recommend this facility to anyone looking for quality post-acute care.
This place looks like one flew over the cuckoo’s nest. It’s a run down filthy place and it smells. My mother was dropped in a room and left there to freeze to death. Nobody checked on her and I was on my way to be with her. When I entered the building I could hear someone crying and yelling for help and to see that it was my mother I just flipped out. My mother was released from the hospital after being diagnosed with AFib and she couldn’t walk or even move her body due to Parkinson’s. She has been in a SNF before and the rehab was great and she was tended to but that was when she was able to function better than she is now. My mother needs care and this place doesn’t have that. It’s noisy all night long with people yelling and wandering the halls and TV’s blaring and staff talking loud amongst them selves that it seems like rehabilitation is impossible. The food is horrible, the communication is horrible and it’s hard to understand what people are saying since they have heavy accents and are wearing masks. My mother has done nothing but cry hear and it hasn’t even been 24 hours since arriving. The social worker here is helping me find another place for her because this place is horrible. I can’t believe Kaiser would contract with this facility. Also it’s not locked at night people can come and go and it doesn’t feel safe. This place should be investigated or shut down. It’s sad that you pay for insurance all your life and when you need quality care as a senior you just won’t get it. My mom is going backwards instead of rehabilitating. Thanks Kaiser for using such a shady rehab! P.S. The social workers name is RJ who is wonderful and the physical therapist is Sandy who is also wonderful so that needed to be said.
This place is absolutely horrible and feels like a real life death sentence. Whoever owns and operates this facility should be ashamed. It is painfully obvious that their only concern is how to squeeze more money out of insurance companies, while the well being, dignity, and safety of patients are completely ignored. If you truly care about your loved ones, do not send them here. Everything about this place screams neglect and hopelessness. The atmosphere alone feels heavy, cold, and unsafe. The staff often appear irritated, unapproachable, and as if caring for patients is a burden rather than their responsibility. On top of that, this is not a secure facility at all. I was able to come and go freely without ever signing in or being questioned, which is alarming and unacceptable for a healthcare environment. Patient safety is clearly not a priority. This facility should be investigated and shut down immediately. No one deserves to be treated this way, especially during such a vulnerable time in their life. MY GOAL IS TO GET PLACES LIKE THIS SHUTDOWN FOR GOOD 😊
I’m Shirley Yen, and although I haven’t lived here for very long, I’ve felt immense warmth. R.J. is the Social Coordinator, always thinking of the patients. Christian Cardenas, the Rehab Assistant, is very well-organized. Sonny Woodard, the Nurse, is dedicated and hardworking. Tran Nguyen, the Wound Nurse, often goes hungry to complete her tasks. Jean Capulong, the CNA, is always the first to help out.
They leave patients wet for hours and cnas as arerude and rough with patients. Food horrible and very noisy all night.over medicate ppl
my dad was sent here from kaiser after a mild stroke and care has been terrible at best!! gets a shower once a week if lucky,supposed to be twice a week, food is abosolute crap. they dont care for patients came in no wounds now has bruises on arm 2 bed sores ans a leg wound (pressure sores) they tested him for covid with no signs of covid because a speech therapist said he was congested but it is because they are thickening all his drinks. cant ever get a hold of anybody and force tests on people…after we put no vac,tests or meds until we notify us first, they dont read or pay attn the speech therapist is the worst she interupts all his meals so his food gets cold its bad enough hot. they dont rotate him in bed at all..pt and otc is decent. rooms somewhat clean. tv terrible,parking is the worst. LOOK FOR BETTER PLACES THIS PLACE IS TERRIBLE!!!! UPDATE 08/22/25 GOT DISCHARGED WITH BED SORES NOT READY FOR RELEASE THERAPY WAS PATHETIC. WE HAVE REPORTED THEM TO MEDICARE FOR FRAUD AND ELDER ABUSE. FILED COMPLAINT WITH STATE AND JAACO FOR BAD CARE, ABUSE AND INCOMPETENCE. HE LOST 28 POUNDS IN THE PLACE BECAUSE OF HORRIBLE FOOD! AND CARE
Read about how they gave a cup of cleaning solution to a patient and wouldn’t call 911 for 2 hours. Only after patient borrowed roommates phone and called 911 himself did they take any action. There’s complaints about neglect and crusty diapers.
They are one of the best in the Bay Area, very professional, tentative, and has a great staff. I’ve dealt with many facilities, this is the best I’ve ever been to.
Primarily worked with RJ in communications with DVPA. He is a busy man. Once I figured out who to talk with regarding my mom’s care, it went well (RJ works very well with long distance communication via text). They have great experience working people through the confusion of post surgery and therapy getting patients back on their feet. Parking is tight but workable. The facility is clean and there are large areas to visit outside of the patients rooms.
