Vista La Mesa Senior Living Inc

They're wonderful! All the people that I came into contact with and everyone that helped me set up the move were all wonderful. They were the nicest people in the world.

Grossmont Gardens is a very good community. It is clean and well maintained. We chose this community because of Natalie from A Place for Mom she put us in tune with it. When we toured it we liked the community but ended up backing out of selecting one. A couple of months later our loved decided they wanted to move into Grossmont Gardens.

Very nice facility and services, except the 2-bedroom suites are only available for independent living, not for residents who need assisted living. The fixed assisted living fee is nice and makes it affordable for my parents. I only wish it had 2-bedroom assisted loving suites that had 2 bathrooms.

We are continually impressed with the professionalism and care of the nursing station staff. They are on top of every detail of my parents' care, and there is a lot to monitor. I get immediate calls if anything is amiss. Very kind people there!

The Winter Family just wanted to say thank you for the extra special care you have provided to our Dad and Mom. You all just really don't understand how much we appreciated you. Our family made the very best choice when we made Grossmont Gardens the choice for Dad and Mom. First in the Assisted Living and then after Dad passed the transition for Mom into the Nursing Care Facility. I just could not imagine where we could have gotten better care.

I am very comfortable with the quality of care that my wife had received while she was in there care at this facility. The staff where attentive to her needs and made sure to make her as comfortable as she could be. I would defiantly recommend this place to anyone interested

I am very pleased to say that our choice of Grossmont Gardens for the care of my brother has been confirmed;-) I have been impressed with all categories provided by GG. Employees are friendly and very caring. In a time where my brothers best interests were at stake, we made a great choice. I do need to get him more involved in activities but over all he is very happy.

I recently have made the move into this community and I have really been enjoying myself since the transition. They have have a great activity program that offers plenty of different games and events to keep me busy throughout the week. I also have have no complaints about the food it is absolutely delicious.

I'am very happy knowing my mother is pleased with this community. They have been very welcoming and helpful, the staff is great. The community is well-kept, they do a good job of keeping everything nice and clean. She is trying many activities they offer like shopping trips, and yoga classes. The food is good, but she would like more of a selection to choose from. They are caring for her very well and I would recommend it.

My Father has fit right in with this community and has even found a girl friend. The community is very clean and while I have not tried the food myself my father likes it even though sometimes it is not hot enough. He participates in a men's group and also enjoys it when they participate in music. The nursing staff is very good and they keep me updated on my dad's care. I think this was definitely the right fit for my father.

Stellar staff, great residents and nice, older well-kept units. We toured multiple communities, and Grossmont Gardens definitely had the friendliest feel. The only reason I gave 4.5 is the absence of organized cardio, e.g., morning group walks, and/or fitness center with cardio equipment. They do have chair exercise classes though.

My Mother has been at Grossmont Gardens for a week now and she is so happy. She loves the studio apartment she has that looks over two courtyards and she can listen to the birds all day. She is starting to make friends and go the to the planned activities and she says the food is good. So far, so good!

Overall facility and staff were wonderful. Karla, Laurie, Lisa in admin were particularly helpful in selecting a place for my parents. The room itself was large, cheerful and well kept and we were allowed to bring Mother's furniture. The nurses on the Vintage Club floor (sorry, I only remember Minerva's name and Diana ??-my bad) were caring and skillful and most of the CNA's were prompt when called and very gentle with Mother. The ONLY problem I noted and reported to the nurses in charge was one CNA that I found asleep TWICE the same night, even with a patient calling for help down the hall. My mother (Dad unfortunately passed before the transfer) had private help in addition to the facility's staff. Other patients may not have that option. I would have hated it if this person were responsible for my mother's care since she was not capable of calling for assistance on her own and he would not have heard her calling if she could over his snores. Mother passed after a few days but Grossmont Gardens was of enormous help in make her last few days comfortable for her and comforting for me. Thank you.

Our walk through was very nice I'd like to move there, but my daughter says it's over budget - you know - champagne taste and beer money. I'm very disappointed I can't just reserve a room and move in,

Grossmont Gardens has created a comfortable and safe network of care for its residents. The independent living apartments are upgraded and sparkling clean upon move-in. The staff are cheerful, caring and always ready serve. They provide an extensive "menu" of extra services from bathing help to medication delivery that keep their residents feeling secure. We are thankful for their faithful care of our dear friend.

The quality of food is very poor. It's on older facility so sometimes the residents don't have hot water (this has happened twice since February- one time it lasted 10 days). The grounds are nice...lots of plants.

I don't require medical care. I'm home-bound in my apt so I don't see the grounds or activities. Everyone I do see are very nice. Still having problems getting 1 meal a day delivered to me. ( after 18 months). Lots of staff turnover. But overall I'm happy here.

Lower cost for value. Responsive when called or questioned. Food is unappealing to look at. Very little color in the dishes. One dinner cauliflower, chicken with a sauce (same color as cauliflower), and I think mashed potatoes? I remember thinking this whole dish is off-white. My Father in Law hates the food and asks for a hamburger everyday, which they supply, but probably not so good for him.

Grossmont Gardens is not the ideal place for [name removed] but none of the facilities that I toured are. Memory care facilities appear to be geared for patients with Alzheimers type dementia, not Lewy Body which I believe that [name removed] has. The activities do not challenge him and he is bored and frustrated. He has made numerous attempts to climb the wall surrounding the facility. The best feature of the facility is it's location. Convenient for me and his girls to visit him. I would recommend Grossmont Gardens. The caregivers are good and the activities are good for most of the residents. They bring in entertainment regularly and have events for family to attend
