Senior Apartments
The staff is very caring and helpful to my mother and brother. The facility has recently remodeled the common areas with new paint, flooring and new table and chairs in the dining room. The facility has a welcoming feeling as soon as you enter it. The facility seems to be short staffed on Saturdays and it may take longer for the residents to get help. I also noticed that they are training new staff so hopefully this concern will be resolved.
Since I live in Orange County, I have only visited my Dad a few times there. My sister, on the other hand is there at least 1 - 2 times a week. We find the facility quite adequate for. The people are very friendly and seem to care about each person. They are willing to help in any way you ask. They provide a monthly menu for the meals, have live entertainment, and televisions available in each room as well as in the lobby. Each person has a nice bed and a closet to store their clothes. Overall, the facility is large and allows those that are mobile to move quite a bit. They also have a large yard that they have been improving upon. This is especially nice in the summer.
