Fireside Health Care Center

Fireside Health Care Center, located at 947 3rd Street in Santa Monica's desirable North of Wilshire neighborhood, provides skilled nursing care in one of the most sought-after residential pockets on the Westside. Operated by Nahs, Fireside combines clinical expertise with a warm, attentive environment designed to support residents through post-acute rehabilitation, complex medical care, and long-term living. The 3rd Street address places Fireside in the heart of a tree-lined, walkable neighborhood closely associated with Montana Avenue — the beloved stretch of boutique shops, organic cafés, and neighborhood restaurants that define Santa Monica living at its best. Families visiting loved ones can enjoy coffee at one of the charming Montana Ave spots, browse local boutiques, or take a short walk to Palisades Park to watch the sunset over the Pacific. The area has the feel of a genuine residential community, offering tranquility alongside easy access to city amenities. From a medical access standpoint, the facility is exceptionally well-positioned. Providence Saint John's Health Center on Santa Monica Boulevard is just minutes away, as is UCLA Health Santa Monica Medical Center on 16th Street — giving residents immediate access to two of the region's most respected acute care hospitals for specialist consultations and emergencies. Santa Monica's mild Mediterranean climate, with cooling ocean breezes and abundant sunshine year-round, contributes to the overall quality of life for both residents and their visiting families. The nearby Third Street Promenade and Santa Monica Pier offer entertainment and cultural landmarks that make the city feel vibrant and alive at every age. Nahs brings consistent oversight and a resident-first philosophy to Fireside Health Care Center, emphasizing quality clinical outcomes, transparent family communication, and a respectful approach to both rehabilitation and long-term care. Whether a resident is recovering from a joint replacement or requires ongoing skilled nursing support, the dedicated team at Fireside is committed to every step of the journey.
