Overview of Santé of Surprise – Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation

Santé of Surprise operates as a skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility on West Yorkshire Drive in Surprise, Arizona. Single-story, private rooms, 21-day average stay. That timeline tells you this is built for post-acute recovery: people coming out of hospitals, moving through rehabilitation, and then transitioning to next-level care or home.

The Walk Score is 33, which means you’re in suburban territory where driving handles most errands and appointments. The private rooms make sense for people in recovery who need rest and reduced stimulation. Medicare and private pay are both accepted, so coverage options exist.

The staffing is nursing-forward. Total nursing care runs 4 hours 11 minutes per resident per day across all staff types.

RN coverage is 1 hour 8 minutes daily. Nurse aides handle 2 hours 16 minutes. LPNs and LVNs add another 1 hour 14 minutes. For a short-stay model, that’s a solid staffing footprint: you’re looking at meaningful professional oversight, not a skeleton crew.

At 21 days average, this facility is specifically built for people moving through post-acute rehabilitation with nursing support and a defined recovery trajectory. You come in after hospitalization, do your rehabilitation, and move to the next stage. It’s a bridge, not a permanent residence.
