Not Sure About the Value
reviewed on: 08/22/2013 by DianaI don't really know aobut the value. Does every place charge $300 for incontinence care? It seems like a lot but I don't know! Room and board is only $1850 including furniture and it's a beautiful room but you have to add on the services. I certainly thing the room and board is reasonable and I think it's a good value given that everyone is friendly. The care service - they're there and we use them and they seem good. The only activity my mom was interested in was Spanish classes. She went there 3 times and they said they were going to have them and the person didn't show up. She was disappointed with that. There's always people moving in and out so there is junk in the hallways by the loading dock that my mom walks past everyday. I think that should be taken a little better care of and continuing improvements on the garden would be great. It's a real boost to the residents to have a beautiful courtyard and that means more plants and trees.
Was very impressed, large rooms.

Doing a bang up job
reviewed on: 11/11/2015 by Kathleen CorkinsMy Mother has been at Vista Del Mar now about 6 years, she has always been happy and well attended to. She is not the strong silent type so we would be the first to know if her needs were not attended to. I personally would like to thank Denise and Sodonia for there continued care and keeping me informed about my mother. Living out of state (family is in the area) it helps that they keep me in the loop.
room to improve
reviewed on: 08/21/2015 by AnonymousOne area they could improve a little more on would be the security, and watching over the patients. It is a little more open and free. It was also a kind of slow process getting my loved one set up in there. The facility itself is very nice though and everyone has been very friendly and helpful.
New resident doing well
reviewed on: 10/29/2014 by AnonymousJim has MS, and although he hated to give up the "independence" of living in his own apartment, he knew that he just wasn't able to function on his own any longer. As his principal care giver, I am very much relieved that he now has the care he needs to function, and that the staff by and large respects his autonomy and treats him with care and respect. I feel that he is doing better in this environment than when he was in his own apartment. I am particularly pleased that the residents seem more like members of a community than inmates at an institution.
