I toured Carson Senior Assisted Living. I liked that they were organized. They had plenty of staff. They had people doing different things, watching TV or listening to music. They had a variety of things to do. The staff was nice and friendly. They answered questions that me and my dad had. Everything seemed nice. They had elevators. They had vending machines if you want to buy snacks and stuff. The parking lot seemed big. Everything seemed nice from the outside. I just didn't like the shared room thing. I know you got to pay extra for it, but I don't see why would you have to pay another $1900 for a shared room. I wanted my parents to share a room, but charging the full price for a shared room was a little too much.

Provider Response

I didn't like Carson Senior Assisted Living. The price is higher than the other place for two people in one room. It's so dark, and the carpet is dark. I don't like that. It's so depressing. I don't like the physical appearance. It's so confusing. They have a dining room, but it is just long. There's one table good for two people the most.

The reason I chose Carson Senior Assisted Living for my brother is that it's less than 6 or 7 minutes away from me. In addition to that, the lady that interviewed me was very personable and she gave me a lot of info that I didn't get at other ones. At that facility, you can walk outside unlike other places that are locked down. I could tell that it was a very clean place and no smells, and the occupants there, as I passed them, were very friendly. The caregivers that were overseeing the occupants there were very friendly to them. Overall, I was pleased with what I saw. The rooms were very clean and accessible with wheelchairs. The staff didn't go into any details about activities. I just saw that there was television access to movies that the occupants were watching. She showed me the laundry room. Everything seems to be up and above normal under the circumstances. Everything was clean. I saw people doing laundry there. It was very good.

I went to look at Carson Senior Assisted Living. The residents seemed very happy there. They had nice activities, and the staff knew the residents. The facility is small, dingy, old, and not super clean-looking. But for the amount they charge, I think it's a good value for the money. They need to modernize the place and have more cleanliness. The lady who toured me around seemed very nice and answered my questions.

Carson Senior Assisted Living was clean and a pretty big facility. They had ample rooms and a courtyard. They were just opening up the dining room and the common areas because of COVID. Other than that, it was pretty clean and decent. The rooms were clean. They showed me a single private room versus a shared room and they were decent. The staff was courteous, kind, and very well informed. They had a barber and a beauty shop on site and vending machines onsite. The facility was a little dated and it could be updated. Other than not having the newest upholsteries or draperies or anything like that, it was clean, it smelled clean, and it looked clean. The exterior was more updated than the interior.

Carson Senior Assisted Living needed remodelling, the rooms were old and dirty, and even the TV room the men were sitting in. I believe they're doing some painting and updates there, but they need to clean that one up a little bit. I've met with the administrator for registration, she was knowledgeable, and she kept things in order. I didn't care for it, and I wouldn't want to put my dad there.

We chose Carson Senior Assisted Living because it was affordable, and they were able to accommodate everything we needed. The area is also familiar to my relative and close to family. He enjoys being there and he likes the staff; they're very attentive. He likes the freedom that he has, so he doesn't feel pressured. I spoke with him yesterday and he was quite pleased with the community. I think they're doing a good job. The staff is very caring and attentive, and when we have to locate him they always know where he is. The place is always nice and clean. They've met our needs financially.

Provider Response

Hi Zamar, Thank you very much for your kind review. We do try are best to meet all our residents needs and make this their home.

Carson Senior Assisted Living's staff seemed very nice and the pricing was a lot lower. I kind of liked it, but my sister didn't like the feel at all. It's an older facility and I saw interaction and activities going on.

The representative from Carson Senior Assisted Living was very cordial, professional, listened to what I was looking for, and took the time to explain things. The apartments were very accommodating, spacious, and large. They had a lot to offer there. It would have been a good place for my husband. The manager was very kind and very accommodating, and I was very impressed with that.

Carson Senior Assisted Living was very clean, but the rooms were small, and the price was too much for its size. They could provide the furniture for the room, but you could bring your own if you want to.

My visit at Carson Senior Assisted Living was very nice. The gentleman who accommodated me was very helpful. It was a big complex with a courtyard in the middle. He showed us the dining room and a special wing where they serve dementia patients. It looked like they had a lot of activities. The nice thing about the place was that it offered all phases of care, so they would not have to leave the place.

Provider Response

Thank you for your visit to our community. We try make it home for all our residents and give them numerous things to do though out the day.

Carson Senior Assisted Living was a bigger community. One side was memory care and the other, bigger side was assisted living. It was OK but was old and dingy. There was one room that I passed by that smelled of urine. It probably was a good community, but I was turned off by that urine smell. They had amenities and regular activities, like luaus, barbecues, and an exercise program. They had different areas where the residents could gather and be social and a calendar on the walls of the different activities and outings.

Provider Response

I am sorry that when you visited our facility you passed a resident's room and it smelled of urine. It is a senior living and from time to time you will have a smell coming from someone's room or in a hallway. Seniors do tend to have accidents from time to time. When an accident happen in our facility to get maintenance and care staff right on it. We do care for our seniors and maintain their dignity. Our building is a bit wore, but it does not reflect the care we give. Thank you for visiting and posting a review of our facility. Good luck on your search for the perfect community for your loved one.

Carson Senior Assisted Living is very clean and very open with wide corridors. There's no odor. It seems like it is well organized. The bathroom has been re-done. The room has a walk-in closet. It's a good size room. They painted it, and they put new carpeting in it, so it is really nice. The dining area is very nice. It's large. They have individual sitting chairs, and they are assigned to a place. It's very clean. There are flowers to make it look homey.

Carson Senior Assisted Living was very clean. It is a smaller facility versus the other community. The staff was very helpful and professional. Their uniforms were clean. The residents seemed happy. They were watching television. They have stretching exercise in place.

I like Carson Assisted Living & Arbor Hall because they had a memory care unit. The staff is very nice and friendly. The dining area and the food look good to me. The rooms have their own bathrooms and walk-in closets. They also overlook a courtyard. The facility looks clean, and I really like the manager.

My father was a resident a couple of years ago.I'm getting right to the point.My father was transferred to a nursing facility a couple of years ago and by my surprise my father was checked out of CRC and checked into a nursing facility, not only that the administrator office had thrown all his belonging away. No one notify the family. He had TV's, tv antenna, VCR, video's, clothes, shoes, tv box, electric scooter, wheel chair, walker, grooming kit, hair clippers, radio, family photo's inside of frames, a toosie roll can of coins, etc. I realized these things may not mean anything to CRC staff but, to him thats all he had for almost 20 years of being resident there. that was home and he missed bring at home. I'm the one that had to go to him and tell him he can't go home and they threw his things away. That's alot of stress on him and our family. No one notified the family to come pick up his belongings, no one notified the family that he lost his room at Carson Retirement Center. This is not right.

let me start with saying that i have been to many different senior living centers and this one by far is at the rock bottom. After entering the facility their is not a single person at the entrance to direct you to your family member. or even offer help. After i walked around for about 5-10 minutes i finally stopped a nurse (i think no badge) i asked for my grandmother and the lady kindly took me to her room which i had passed. Once we got to the door she pulled out a ring of keys and unlocked her door to let me in.. (locked door?) My grandmother can not walk and weighs about 90lbs The person who opened the door would not tell me why the door was locked and left. once i got in the room she was just laying there. windows were closed it was stuffy in the room her TV did not work and there was no phone,call button or any way for her to contact someone EVEN a nurse if she needed help. After being there for about 2-3 hours not once did a nurse come to check on her. not for pills not even to see if she was ok. If you care at all about your family member this is the place NOT to put them

I chose Carson Senior Assisted Living for my mom for three reasons. The price was reasonable and within my mom's budget, it was 5 minutes away from my house and the residents looked like her, which made her comfortable. One time when I fetched her for a doctor's appointment, I saw she had a burn mark on top of her breast and I took a picture of the laceration. The staff did take note of that on her chart but they did not inform me. I knew she did not eat because she did not like the food so I tried to have a meal with her, the staff also fed her. They had activities but limited because they were understaffed. My mom seemed pretty content, and I knew she was okay and that was what's important to me. But I thought they needed to increase their staff.

Carson Senior is great. Everything is positive. It's a good environment for my husband. I wish there were some ways that they had access to some assistance that they could help us financially, because when you have someone that's going to be there long-term it's gets to be very wearing financially.

Carson Retirement Center offers a fair, adequate level of care for the patient. The facility is older, a little gloomy in appearance, and seems to offer rooms for those that are concerned about bottom line affordability and budget concerns. The staff members are friendly and willing to serve the basic needs of the patients. Overall, this facility offers basic, no frills housing.

This facility has more structure for the residents than some of the other facilities. They have field trips set up for the residents, including to Las Vegas. There's a bulletin board that shows the activities for the week. It's a good place for the residents to be. The food was good "“ I had lunch there. I had chicken and salad and corn. The facility doesn't look very impressive from the outside, but it's decent. The grounds are flat and have nice landscaping. They have a few gardens. The common areas inside are pretty big. The furnishings in the common rooms look pretty good "“ maybe an 8 out of 10. Some residents here do have their own little room, and some have to share. Most of them I saw had their own rooms. The staff were friendly and social with the residents. I think I would give the staff an 8 or 9 out of 10 for training. The management was informative and cordial when I asked questions. I wish it were bigger and could hold more residents.

I think Carson senior assisted living facility is not a good facility. While there, I witnessed staff members not taking care of the members. Some of the residences were outside without any body observing /monitoring them. They whole place smell nasty. They staff members do not monitor who comes in or exit the building. Iam a bit worried about safety. I was disappointed when I requested for a chart of a resident and it was given to me without considering HIPPA law. I would not recommend this place. In general, I would rank this facility two out of five stars.

About Carson Senior Assisted Living in Carson, California

Assisted Living Services for the independent at heart.



Seniors enjoy their independence but at the same time, sometimes require a little extra help with the activities of daily living. Assisted living gives residents the best of both worlds. Our residents can have their autonomy comfortable with the knowledge that personal care and support services are available when they need them. Assisted living is perfect for people for which complete independent living is no longer a viable option but do not require the more extensive 24-hour care offered by a nursing home.



At Carson Assisted Living, residents can live independently and still have access to the assistance they need including bathing, dressing, grooming, medication monitoring and much more. Residents also enjoy three delicious meals every day. Our central dining encourages residents to visit with one another and reduces isolation.

Dedicated Arbor Hall Alzheimer's Care Unit



We are committed to helping people with Alzheimers and other memory-related disorders live as independently as possible, for as long as possible. Our Arbor Hall Alzheimer’s Care wing features a delayed egress alarm system with electromagnetic locks on all exits. Our well-planned dedicated Alzheimer’s unit is designed to meet the needs of those residents living with memory loss. Familiar routines are re-established and emphasis is placed on what an individual can do and enjoys doing.



The staff at Arbor Hall have been carefully chosen for their empathy and compassion. Each staff member is then specially trained to help create a supportive, friendly and therapeutic environment for our residents.



Our ongoing inservice and Alzheimers training prepares our caregivers to assist with all the activities of daily living to our residents while maximizing their independence.
