Our Elderly Clientele Deserve the Best
With a team committed to innovation, ethics, and superlative care, Vista Cove enhances the quality of life of our elderly residents, those precious individuals who give purpose to our work. Our programs and support help to make our elderly's golden years healthier and happier. It is our goal to be the facility whose very name brings to mind integrity, honesty and trust.

Vista Cove offers many services, among them a full rehabilitation department. We offer Physical, Occupational, and Speech therapies.

Physical Therapy
Vista Cove contracts with Rehab Care to provide licensed Physical Therapists that focus on improving coordination, balance, strength, endurance, and joint flexibility to achieve optimal levels of functional movement. Our goal is to move our residents toward greater independent mobility. Vista Cove also offers rehabilitation education for the patients and families as an integral part of all treatment, as well as a home environmental assessment to ensure safety and function when residents return home.

Occupational Therapy
The focus of our registered and licensed Occupational Therapists is to enable the patient to adapt their physical and cognitive capabilities to the skills needed in activities of daily living. Our therapists assess the areas needed to function independently, and customize a treatment plan that emphasize on balance, strength, perception, and cognition. Each individualized treatment plan is designed to help increase muscle strength, coordination, joint mobility as well as reduce pain, prevent deformities, and increase the resident’s confidence.

Speech Therapy
Our licensed Speech Therapists and Pathologists focus on restoring the patient's ability to communicate. We address communication problems by helping patients improve skills in speaking, listening, thinking, reading, writing, problem solving, as well as organizing and sequencing thoughts. Also offered are treatment and management programs for swallowing difficulties.
