I am very happy with my father's stay here at the facility, and he is making great progress. At times, it seems as though the employees cannot spend as much time as they should with each patient. Also, when I visited, he was still in bed, and it was later in the day. I felt as though staff could have gotten him out of bed earlier. I have to constantly encourage the nursing staff to keep him hydrated. It has been a challenge to get the nursing staff to pay attention to his individual needs, especially when it comes to providing more liquids.

It's a nice clean place. It's not stinky as one would expect. Everyone is amazing. The staff have big hearts. Overall, I'm very happy. The staff and I used to be more connected, but they haven't called me in a while, maybe a year. I pointed this out, and they found it troubling, but still no calls.

The staff are amazing with the patients. They are excellent at communication. There is a a particular staff member who is amazing and takes time with the patients. The cleanliness and everything is perfect. We like the head nurse, and she tells me what is going on. They give me a monitored report of my loved one's weight each month, and she is healthy. I have seen that the dining room can be a little messy, but that is understandable with the patients.

We would definitely recommend the facility. We actually came here because we had another family member here previously. They are exceptionally good about recognizing that it is not just my loved one being cared for. They have really gone out of their way to make sure the family is doing just as good as she is; after all, it is not just the patient who deals with the facility. They have made this process the the best that it could possibly be during a time that can be uneasy. I have never found anything a mess. They not only let us know about her personally, but they also have been very good at contacting us for family events, holidays, and birthdays. They are so on top of it, and this has made such a big difference for our family as a whole.

This facility is the best place in southern California. The medical care is very sophisticated and thorough. The CNA my wife has in the morning gets her dressed and ready for the day and is the best possible person I can think of. The nurses are excellent. The staff are excellent. I like the RNA who feeds her breakfast. I like the RNA who helps her exercise. There is nobody there who does not smile. They tell her she does a good job.

All of the staff, including the director of nursing, the office, and the activities director, are all patient and friendly. They call me quite often with anything that is different. They call and give me reports and details on my loved one's medication. If they have to change her medications, they call me. They take care of her mental and emotional health. They help keep her happy, they and take good care of her.

We tried another facility and it did not go well. This is a small facility. They are loving and caring and do what they say they will do. My dad likes the activities. This facility has plenty of staff, and they are happy with their jobs. There are a lot of different staff on call. The lady in the activities department is very good. The facility does not smell bad and the floors are always mopped and cleaned. My dad likes the floors. The meals are great and my mom and I eat there a lot. We compliment them on their meals. They do not charge if we want to eat with him. The chef is really great there. The nurse calls us and sometimes the nurse's assistant calls us.

I am happy with the nursing, but some of the care my loved one has gotten has not been good. Every time I call, they are very helpful, especially with the paperwork and insurance. It is always clean when I am there. You never smell urine there.

My mother has been at the facility for four years and we are so happy with the place! We could not ask for better care. The nurses have all been amazing. There is a nurse who is usually up at the front and she has made a difference with our family! She is so helpful and nice. The facility is perfect with their communication! Even if it just something that is a one-time thing in terms of her medication, they will reach out to me to update me. I am very happy with their communication!

They have been very helpful throughout this process. The nursing supervisor helped get my father admitted into the facility. I would like to give a shout out to her!
