Assisted Living Communities in Buena Park, CA

"I'm leaning towards Integrity Guest Home. The tour was wonderful. Kathy gave us the tour, she's the owner, and she did great. She showed us a room, and everything was clean. The clients were sitting there watching TV. They seemed very peaceful. She did have a little backyard with a little patio where they could go sit outside, and when you go visit, they could sit outside there, too. It was very nice. It was a very tranquil environment. The fact that there were two caregivers made me feel comfortable. When I went to the previous one, there was only one caregiver there, and they were waiting for the second one to get there, which to me was kind of scary. They can accommodate 6 residents. There was a shared room and a private room. They said they take them outside. They have activities for them. Before COVID, they would drive them in a van to the senior center. When COVID is lifted, they will do that again."

"I live here in Independent Living and I love it. I moved here from another, smaller, senior community one year after my wife passed because this one has more residents and more chances for me to make friends. I immediately asked and was encouraged by senior staff to facillitate two mentally challenging discussion groups every week for people with like interests. They are still going strong and many of us have become good friends. I can't praise the staff enough for consistently providing excellent meals, activity opportunities, and overall cleanliness. I also can't praise my fellow residents enough; we have been successful enough in life (I retired 26 years ago as a high school principal.) to be able to enjoy this quality of life with our peers."

"As a resident of two years,and a highly educated person, I am fully disappointed in how this administration is as phoney as I have ever experienced. I also find them wholly unqualified to deal with residents, problems, outcomes. There is no follow through or any explanations as to why not. The lack of conscious thinking or acting is appalling. This is no place I would ever send a loved one. "

"I toured this facility with my mother and found it to be very inviting! It's a newer facility and the rooms are beautiful/clean. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. My mother really liked that the rooms had full kitchens and washer/dryers as her independence is important to her. The location and activities provided were awesome! This is definitely a contender when we are ready to commit!"

"It was very clean and very beautiful. It's got beautiful gardens and beautiful accommodations. The staff gave me a tour of the memory care. They were very, very knowledgeable. They have crafts, yoga, and different activities. The dining room was beautiful. They also have a TV room that's very clean and very nice. Another thing was I don't have to make appointments to go see my sister if I place her there and people can go visit her. It's open 24 hours. So, that's a plus because sometimes you'd make an appointment and it's hard to get there. So, you're able to go there when you can. I'm in love with that place."

"My dad and my sister were residents of Artesia Christian Home. The facility is spotless. They've got a good, great staff, and they're very accommodating. They had maybe a small bump in the road every once in a while, but other than that, things were fine. Their staff was excellent. They're very friendly. They're very quick to help in critical situations. We're just really pleased with them. They loved the food. The kitchen staff was excellent, too. They put on quality products. They've got a little open area of patios. If you want to meet your family there, they have a nice place for you to meet. They also have little meeting areas throughout the home. There's a nice, quiet neighborhood around there. So if you want to take a walk around the block, you can. My father used to do that quite regularly and he enjoyed it. They have Bible studies there. They have group activities. They bring people in throughout the month as far as there might be a Bible teacher who comes in, maybe motivational people. They do little exercise classes. They keep the residents busy. This is the thing about it. The folks were bathed. They're washed. They're dressed and they're ready at a time in the morning when they're serving breakfast. So, everybody comes out there, they're dressed, they're clean, and that's how they start your day. They got the staff doting over them for the rest of the day. They've got a little aviary. It's a big bird cage and they keep that very active. I love the variety of the little birds that they put in there. They have a little garden area if you want to grow some tomatoes or put something like that."

"I toured Brookdale for my friend. It was lovely and comfortable. Kristin, I believe she was the director, was very helpful and thoughtful. It was good. I was very happy and pleased with it. I saw the dining room, and I have nothing but positive things to say about it. During my time there, I was very pleased. As far as the dining room goes, it was clean, well-organized, and inviting."

"I toured Ivy Park at Fullerton, and there is nothing I didn't like about it. It was beautiful in every way. It seemed like a wonderful place and beautifully furnished. Everything was attractive, and there was lots of bright light. Many people gathered in one of the rooms, interacting with someone doing an activity with them. The dining room was gorgeous. Everybody seemed friendly and happy to be there, and a good number of people working around."

"My stepmom is a resident of Rowntree Gardens, and what I like most is the responsive and caring staff. It is a Christian community, and it has many activities. The people that are living there are very nice. It's a wonderful community. It has an atrium in the middle. There's a lot of outdoor beauty in the gardens and a lot of outdoor space to mingle. They have doctors that come. They have a church and a full-time pastor. They have a beauty shop. They have a fully stocked library. They have rooms for private events that you can reserve. They have a little gift shop, a main dining room, and a fire lounge."

"I toured Beach Terrace Assisted Living & Memory Care. It was bright with lots of natural sunlight. The interior, the way it was decorated was beautiful. The common space was huge. It just feels so welcoming. I saw the menu and it looked like a menu at a restaurant. What was on the menu was pretty interesting, like salmon, asparagus, squash, and stuff like that. I saw a shared room. It was nice. I like the semi-private room, and the room on each side was huge. You can really put a six-seating dining room table and a full-size bed. The shared bathroom was in between and they had doors from each side of the room for the bathroom. They had a big picture window. The staff was so gracious. He was so informative. The tour was guided by the guy who worked there, but the guy that I already had was the one who took me. He was the one who was already familiar with the place, and between what I heard and what I saw, I was more impressed with Beach Terrace."

"I went to Oakmont of Fullerton. It was high-end. Very expensive. The place was immaculate. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful."

"I visited Walnut Village. I loved the apartment that I looked at, and it was out in a quiet area. So for me, it was perfect. It just seems very friendly and nice. They have regular housekeeping and everything like that. They have a little store, a happy hour, and an indoor swimming pool. It was wonderful. The staff was very friendly. They went into great detail about the apartment. I was very happy with them. The food was excellent. The dining area was beautiful. lt's like dining at a beautiful restaurant. Everything was just perfect."

"My wife will be moving into Sunnycrest Senior Living in the first week of July. The facility is nice. I just saw the rooms for a few minutes and it looks fine. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. They had movies and games for their activities."
