Monte Vista Hills Health Care Center sits at 1071 Renee Avenue in Pocatello, Idaho, right near Portneuf Medical Center, Idaho State University, shopping, and the highway. The center's a fully renovated, rural nursing home and is known for its warm and welcoming environment, with roaming wild deer, turkeys, and peacocks often seen on the beautifully landscaped grounds. Folks living here can choose private or semi-private rooms that are comfortable and well-kept, while staff handle housekeeping and laundry to keep things running smoothly. Skilled nursing is a main feature, with both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care options available, and the team focuses on effective and comprehensive care plans that involve staff, patients, families, and other healthcare providers. There's in-house therapy that uses both hands-on and modern techniques to help residents get stronger and recover well. People can join in on a wide range of activities and excursions as part of their Stay Active Programs, which are designed to help everyone regain strength and mobility, and the menu here is focused on offering nutritious and satisfying meals every day. The facility aims to offer safe, comfortable, and therapeutic care, and is proud to have a 4-star overall rating for quality of care from Medicare.gov. Operating hours run from 8:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. every day, and the center is accepting new patients. There's no telehealth available, so care is all in person.

Compassionate care with privacy concerns
I had a mixed but mostly positive experience. The staff - nurses, CNAs, PT/OT (Jake/Jared/Dale), housekeeping, and dining - were compassionate, skilled, and worked as a cohesive, resident-focused team that helped with a real recovery and made us feel cared for. The facility is older but generally clean, with good meals and attentive activities; I appreciated supportive social work and administration at times. My concerns: shared rooms/bathrooms and privacy issues (a dementia roommate), slow nurse response and after-hours admin gaps, inconsistent therapy staffing/practices, occasional cleanliness/odor problems, and what felt like poor communication and understaffing. Overall I'm grateful for the care and would consider returning for respite, but I'd go in aware of the privacy, staffing, and administrative caveats.
