I wouldn’t change a thing about our decision of this care home for my dad. He loved the place and the food! The choice was incredible and the chef amazing! The grounds and rooms are like a hotel. They have all kinds of activities all day and even day trips out daily! He didn’t even want to go home. The coffee room and snacks are great! The price is very cheap compared to others in the county! The issues: we were told that there was a top limit that we wouldn’t pay over if he went to memory care, but months later, we had to pay 300 more than were told. Wish they would have given us a list of things to furnish his room. Staff washed his phone and we couldn’t call him during the pandemic and had to ask staff if we could use their phones which was MOSTLY okay, but difficult! They didn’t tell us we could have a window visit until a couple days before he went unfortunately. Then when he left us, the nurse told us in a very blunt fashion. :( But we still wouldn’t change our decision.

October 31, 2021Thank you for letting us know about your recent visit to Pacifica Senior Living Vista.
We chose Pacifica Senior Living Vista because it was perched on a hill and she likes to be outside in an open area. When you sit outside it definitely has a that very open feeling. She is in a studio apartment and it is a good size but closets are small so that is a little difficult. I haven't been able to see any other sizes due to covid. The front office here is wonderful, they are always friendly and helpful and I would recommend them.

From our understanding they do offer a good amount of residents to participate in, however our loved one just doesn't always participate in. Our first impression of Pacifica was that we loved it. It is a beautiful place and we would recommend this community.

September 25, 2020Carolyn, thanks for your praise and kind comments about our team.
Thank you for everything you do for our "grammas" and "granmpas" every day from taking care of them in person to isolating yourselves from your loved ones and not attending gatherings with your friends to keep your residents safe. Please stay safe and take good care of yourself. You are always in our thoughts.

My father enjoyed a two-month respite stay after suffering a stroke. He made several friends and the staff took excellent care of him. His favorite part was the delicious restaurant-style dining!!

Pacifica Vista has been SO kind and accommodating to our family. We've had some difficult challenges and [name removed] the Executive Director has been there every step of the way. This most recent move has helped us tremendously! It means so much to us knowing that our Mom is surrounded by such kindness.

December 29, 2021Hello Brad, thank you for your positive review! We are very proud of our community and the level of care we provide! Please feel free to reach out at any time to us at any time with any and all questions and concerns; we are always here for you and your family.
My name is [name removed] and my parents currently live in the Pacifica Vista living facility. I would like to take a moment to say thank you to all staff at this facility during this trying time. I am sure this has been very difficult and I really appreciate all the steps they have taken to assure my parents and other residents are safe during this covid breakout. I especially would like to recognize the director [name removed] and the receptionist [name removed] at this facility. They always do such a remarkable job and always try to accommodate my every request in any way that they can. [Name removed] has always told me if I need anything, she is just a phone call away and provided me with her cell number to call or text her at any time. She always responds to me right away and has addressed all of my concerns almost immediately. [Name removed] really knows her job and in addition to that is just a all around wonderful person. There are some things you can teach but there are other things that you can't teach and that is the "IT" factor that [name removed] has on a daily basis. [Name removed] is always so pleasant and very quick at responding to my needs. She is so caring and expresses concern. I don't think she realizes how refreshed I feel when she answers the phone because I know that all my request will be taken care of. She NEVER forgets anything that I have requested and is such a friendly person to all of my family. There is power in kindness and both of these women always bring their own sunshine to work every day. In short, I appreciate you [name removed] and [name removed]. Thank you for all you do. If you have any further questions regarding my email, please do not hesitate to call. Thank you!

December 29, 2021Hello, thank you for leaving us such a wonderful review. We are thrilled that you enjoyed your experience here; our staff will definitely be happy to read what you wrote. We put resident experience and satisfaction as our priority, and your review reaffirms the hard work we put in every day. Thank you again for your kind words and we look forward to seeing you again.
I am writing to express my deep appreciation for your exceptional employee, [name removed], who consistently goes above and beyond in working with my dad, [name removed]. I am a retired RN and I live in Washington State, so my ability to visit with him in person is limited. On the days that [name removed] works with my dad, she consitently provides him with the respectful and gentle care that he responds so well to. I met [name removed] shortly after he moved in Pacifica. On that visit , I was impressed with her kind and caring ways and her genuine interest in understanding more about my dad. Since my dad arrived to your facility, he has become increasingly less verbal, so phone conversations with him have been somewhat challenging. On some of the days that [name removed] works with my him, she communicates with me to let know how he is doing, either through a text message or on the phone. She is also willing to take the time to set up her mobile phone so that I can FaceTime with my dad. He responds beautifully to this method of communication. When he sees my face, he lights up and he will engage with me. I treasure singing songs with him in his native language, French. I can show him pictures of family members and even put his brother, who lives in Washington, on the phone. They are able to see each other and converse in French. This means the world to my uncle. I last visited in February and was planning to visit again in March, but the Covid-19 virus necessitated our current stay at home order. I hope to visit him again, whenever it is deemed safe and the quarantine is lifted. I the meantime, I am grateful for the beautiful care he receives at Pacifica from your professional staff. And I remain immensely grateful that [name removed] works with him and offers him the personal care and understanding that helps him to thrive to the best of his ability.

December 29, 2021Linda, thank you for leaving this detailed review about your experience with our community. We appreciate it and look forward to seeing you again.
My mother [name removed] has been a resident of Pacifica. Our family could not be happier with her very attentive and compassionate care. From the front desk, nurses, med techs, caregivers, dining room staff, maintenance workers and housekeeping ~ all are very dedicated hard working as well as very personable and efficient. There are far too many individuals to point out specifically, so suffice to say that the entire staff is dedicated and compassionate. Knowing our mother is getting such great care, we are put at ease. Especially now with the Covid-19 crisis, it is quite apparent they are taking a very serious approach to making sure all residents are safe and protected. The quality of care and upkeep of the facility and apartments is stellar compared to other facilities our mother has resided in. Thanks to [name removed] the Executive Director who personally answers questions immediately and takes action. Her staff respects her and she takes a personal interest in each resident as well as their family. Should you need any additional information or input, please do not hesitate to ask. Many thanks and appreciation goes to Pacifica’s entire staff. Our family is truly grateful!
