Ivy Park at Palos Verdes

There was a big increase in rent when management changes from Sunrise to Ivy. Nothing noteworthy to mention about the staff at this time. They are looking for a new director as the previous one retired and moved out of state. Ivy Park at Palos Verdes is overall a good facility.

They are friendly and responsive. They have helped get mom's glucose numbers down. They make her feel at home.We actually picked another community, but they had a delayed opening so mom got settled and now we won't change it because it has been so good for mom.

The friendliness of the staff gets a 5+++. Your biggest asset are those working on the 1st and 2nd floor. Your front desk (all of them), your wait staff and the people who deliver meds and provide assistance are Amazing. It would be better if [name removed] , [name removed], [name removed]and [name removed]were better informed of the new practices and costs therein. It would be great to have an advisor on the premises who could help families navigate elderly needs like an advocate to educate (Medicare, hmo, dementia, VA and just understanding end of life options) because the family (us) are floundering.. Other than that, it wS a good experience and we miss the staff a bunch.

I visited Sunrise Palos Verdes recently to consider them for my Mom. When we arrived we were warmly greeted by the concierge, and a cute sign was posted welcoming us by name. Every single person we met introduced themselves and asked about my Mom, I was impressed by how genuine they were. The seniors were playing blackjack, my Mom would have joined them if she had been with me! We could smell something they were cooking in the kitchen, it smelled delicious. We noticed how clean everything was, and we also appreciated that they aren't ridiculously grand and opulent like some of the others we've visited in the area. It's an elegant, tasteful place that feels like home.

I am very pleased with the care and attention my sister has received from the staff. I have visited my sister weekly and in the past seven months, I have been deeply impressed with the level of attention the community has shown her. They have been able to attract and engage her in daily activities. The facility is clean and well-ordered. My sister's diet is well-balanced,

We picked this community because of, the quality of staff, and the ability to meet needs of both my loved ones. Mom is treated with dignity and encouraged to participate in activities. The staff are loving and attentive. Dad has found community outside the memory care side, which is where they both live for mom's care.

The only saving grace about this place is the activities director! She is the nicest, sweetest person! She helps me all the time! She deserves a raise! She doesn’t hold a grudge like the other young girls do! One time, when the other girls froze me out of the dining hall, I left to go back to my room without any dinner. She came running after me. I burst into tears and told her what happened. She talked me into going back. She said she would get my food! She is the best! She is the only good one! She deserves a raise!

I would recommend Sunrise to others for their loved ones. This seems to offer the best care for the best value. The community has a middle level care for mild memory care needs, which is what drew me to this community. This fits are needs the best. I didn't see this option at other communities or other Sunrises. The staff are easy to work with and have good communication with the family anytime they need me. They are responsive to my questions and concerns as well. The activities are good. I would like to see more outdoor activities offered to the residents and to the Terrace Club, such as walking for my loved one.

Excellent facility. Very clean and professional staff

Sunrise should please my MIL. I an "pre-shopping" for her. She doesn't even know that i am doing this. At tis time she lives with her husband in their house. er husband is sick, and we don't think he will be with her long. She has indicated that she will want to move toa retirement community in Torrance, and Sunrise would be a very good fit for her. When her need arises, I will suggest it to her.

Mom adjusted to her new home very quickly and is more happy today than I have seen her in the last two years! The staff is very attentive, friendly, and patient. My siblings and I are more confident now that we made the best decision for our mom. Thank you for your assistance!

Beautiful layout, homey feeling, smaller than most which avoids the large hotel-like impression of others I have seen. Very impressed with the attention to detail that makes life easier, interesting, comfortable, and fun for the residents.

Beautiful facility conveniently located to where my mother lives. However, price was beyond our budget and we settled on a place that wasn't as modern, but more than half the price.

The facility was extremely nice. It was a smaller community than others we visited but the activities available were comparable to other facilities. The staff were very friendly to us and all the other residents. The room we viewed was smaller than we preferred.

Looks nice but that's it. I wouldn't advise keeping loved ones here.

I toured Sunrise at Palos Verdes for my mother, and I thought that it seemed to be a very nice community. However, they did not concentrate on memory care here, and that is really what we needed for my mother. We decided to go with another community because Sunrise was not able to meet our needs.
