We have developed a rehabilitation program that integrates physical, clinical, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual well-being into the care plan for recovery.
The Pavilion at Sunny Hills serves as a complex care and rehabilitation hospital for both short-term and long-term stays. It is important to understand that resident and family involvement is crucial to ensuring our success in providing quality care and the best possible quality of life.
Recently, I took a tumble in my house in which I broke my left hip. After surgery to repair the damage, I was transferred to “The Pavilion at Sunny Hills” to start on the road to recovery. This is a fantastic place for recovery. It features three stories of semi-private rooms and private rooms. The semiprivate rooms are designed for two guests. Each guest shares the included amenities such as bathroom and shower facilities. A 42” TV is supplied to each guest but don’t get too overly excited as the channel selection leaves a bit to be desired. During my stay, I was able to get caught up on many hours of Gunsmoke, Wagon Train and a few other old TV series.
I was very fortunate that my insurance company covered the private room and there was one available. The private rooms had the same amenities as the semiprivate, but also included a computer desk and apartment size refrigerator. Wi-Fi is available throughout the facility. A dresser and wardrobe were also added so that you can organize your clothing and such. I truly enjoyed the private room. It meant that I did not disturb another guest with any of my habits. I had a semi-decent view out the window. Directly outside the window was the facility parking lot and just beyond that were the rolling green hills (at least green for this time of year) of Fullerton. The food was delivered three times a day and for the most part was tasty. A couple of times I didn’t care for what they brought in, but that is to be expected when the cooking staff has such a large variety of guests to prepare meals for. The portions were adequate, and I was even asked whether or not I would like to have larger portions.
The guests are offered a variety of daily activities. These activities range from bingo, movies, trivia and church services just to mention a few. During my stay we were treated to a Thanksgiving Day dinner. The staff did a fantastic job with the entire program.
I left the best for the last. The best part of my stay at The Pavilion was the staff. Everyone was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Every time you passed a member of the staff you were greeted with a smile and a warm “Hello”. Response times from activating your call button and having someone show up was great! Wait times were very short, even during the busy times (meals, shift change, etc.). The safety of each and every guest is of the highest priority. My Physical Therapy (PT) and Occupational Therapy (OT) started out with the walk down to one of the two fitness centers. My therapists expressed great concern for my performance and always had an encouraging word to motivate me on.
To summarize, The Pavilion at Sunny Hills is an excellent rehab/recovery facility. The personnel are of the highest standard, the facilities are very nice and your stay will be comfortable while on the road to recovery.
