Sunnye Simpson★★★★★ 2 years agoMy experience of Astoria is that the service they provide and the 98% of the people that work there are outstanding! They have above average follow through and when I have made requests with regard to my mother's care they are pleasant and accommodating. I highly recommend them and am immensely grateful. Keep up the good work.

Howard Sheldon★★★★★ 3 years agoMy surgeon told me there are two kinds of rehab. A diamond and bad coal. Astoria is the diamond on many levels. I have not seen staff there that isn't positive and more than willing to be of help to you. The physical trainers have real world patience for the patients. The food service is excellent and willing to work with you. It is just an excellent chock for rehab in the Valley.

local80g .★★★★★ 3 years agoBetween my mom and step mom, I have been to many nursing homes in the San Fernando Valley. In my opinion they are all bad but if you have to choose, this is one of the best places. Yes, the furniture is old and the place is run down but so are all of the other places. No, the staff is not overly friendly. They look like they hate there job but will smile at you if you smile at them first. All I can say is, you must visit often and ask questions about your family members care. Most places like this will neglect your loved one if they don't have anyone visiting them and keeping an eye on there care. This place is the best of the worst.

Compare The Number of Problems
Types of Problems at Nursing Homes
Some issues within a nursing home are much more severe than others. Medicare evaluates each problem based on 2 scales: the number of residents affected by a problem and the severity of the potential or actual harm to residents based on the problem. We have color coded the matrix below to make it easier to pick out the more severe problems. In general, orange and red issues related to the treatment of a resident are considered substandard quality of care.
| Residents Affected | |||
| Severity of the Deficiency | Few | Some | Many |
| Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety | J | K | L |
| Actual harm that is not immediate jeopardy | G | H | I |
| No actual harm with potential for more than minimal harm that is not immediate jeopardy | D | E | F |
| No actual harm with potential for minimal harm | A | B | C |
