Types of care available in Santa Ynez, CA
Alexander Gardens is by far the most peaceful, beautiful, and friendly place I've seen. My mom loved being there, and the staff went above and beyond to make Mom feel at home. The grounds are the most beautiful and tranquil and amazing that I've seen in any other resident facility that I visited.
The employees are very friendly and caring to be good. I don't see too many activities and I've seen multiple patients wandering around with no shoes. There were other patients sitting in their own urine while eating lunch. We did tell an employee, but they didn't do anything. I'm not sure if he gets more care because we show up. Overall its a nice community but the activities and potentially the care could be improved.
Westmont of Santa Barbara is a great choice for senior living on the central coast. This community is beautiful and the care staff is very knowledgeable and attentive. There are some new employee at the management level and their presence has brought a great new energy to Westmont of Santa Barbara.
