Testimonials

Don’t just take our word for it. Here is a real-life story from the family of one of our seniors at Mountain Vista Health Park, showcasing the positive impact of our activities on their quality of life:

We would like to thank Mt. Vista for everything they did for our mother, Lenora. The nursing/CNA staff went above and beyond to provide high-quality care, and all the departments worked together for the good of our mother – from housekeeping to dietary to physical therapy, etc. Even the administrator came by several times to check on our mother. And Dr. Baker truly cares about his residents and their families. He kept us informed of everything he did for our mother. We’re very proud to know Mt. Vista is here in our own community of Denton, NC to provide such a quality service to those in need. We just can’t thank them enough. They are the best!” – Deanna K.
