Support staff on-site include therapists and LVNs to facilitate continuity and coordination of care.

About the Facility Location

Van Nuys is the most populous neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley, offering a range of cultural and recreational attractions suited to varied interests. Points of interest include the Valley Relics Museum, the Sepulveda Basin Wildlife Reserve, Woodley Park, and the Japanese Garden with its waterfalls and lakes. Clinicians on assignment will also find access to golf courses, ice skating at Iceland Ice Skating Rink, and nearby destinations such as Universal Studios Hollywood, The Getty, and Griffith Park within a short distance.
