"We have been there several times. It’s very close to me, and they have a lot of activities; that’s why I was impressed with them. They have activities going on like normal day to day operation, piano, and bingo -- just about anything you really want. "

"Home R Us was very nice and clean. The lady there was, I supposed, the one who owns the place. It had pictures of her family all on the wall. The room they showed us could be for two people or one and it was very clean. It was just hot in the room (but those were very hot days, too). The living room had a nice sitting area. It's homey. They only have one big bathroom. The owner was kind of a young woman. She was very sweet and kind. She said they have activities. She didn't specify what they all do, but I saw books lying around and they have a big TV there. They don't have something like taking them out on excursions or anything."

"It has been a positive experience with Artesia Christian Home for the most part. My mom's room is pretty nice. It's a 1-bedroom with a full bath and kitchenette. The facility is also pretty nice and above average. They have a lot of activities for the residents, and the food is pretty good. The place is really clean and it's been kept up really well. They have nice furniture in the lounging areas."

"My mom is in the memory care unit. She moved in two months ago. She’s being taken care of. There are some of the bumps in the road but all in all, it’s been a good place. She is in a shared room because she’s in the memory care wing. They’ve been very helpful and supportive. It seemed that they have a fair amount of stuff going on. I think they really do a good job."

"I toured Delightful Aging. It was very clean and open. Parking is the problem there but other than that, it was very clean. They had two nice ladies working there, and they're very friendly, so I didn't see any issues. There is a ramp going into the facility, and it's very open, so they could walk around. There's minimal furniture and it's not cluttered."

"I liked Oakmont of Whittier a lot. It was just totally out of my price range. The rooms were very spacious with minimal furniture, but it could be made into a comfortable space and dressed up into whatever you wanted it to be. It was good. Their theater room was like a mini theater, and it was beautiful. Nice, spacious, walkways, staircases, and chandeliers; it was extremely nice. It would have cost much more than what’s within my budget. But the personnel were very helpful. They had beautiful dining areas with tablecloths and napkins; it looked more like a restaurant. They had serving areas that the people could kind of see the food being prepared and then served to them. The Alzheimer’s unit was one of the locations that they were going to put my brother in because they had more caregivers there, and I didn’t think that was the best fit for him, but he did need more care. If they have had space for him and the money was right, this is where he would have been. "

"Brookdale Central Whittier was great. It was too small for what I wanted for my father, but I liked it. The people were super nice. The studio apartments that were available did not have kitchenettes. They only had a bedroom and a bathroom. "

"La Posada is an assisted living, it's terrific, the staff is absolutely fantastic, and the food is good. They have all kinds of activities, games, they even give them haircuts, and clip their toenails. There are nurses on duty all the time. They're an absolutely great facility. They also have hospice. It's a little more expensive, but you get what you pay for. The food is very good."

"My mom moved to Ivy Park of La Palma earlier this year and we are so pleased! First of all this community looks like a mansion and feels like home. Everyone who works there is always smiling and happy. You never see frowning staff or hear anyone complaining. The meals are great and the residents have meal options. My mom enjoys all the activities: jewelry making, painting, games, and journeys to museums or just sightseeing. The directors including Jennifer the executive director and Alana the marketing director are always pleasant, available, and approachable. I know my mom is safe and well cared for at Ivy Park of La Palma because the systems are all in place and my mom is relaxed and very happy. The proof is in the pudding!"

"Whittier Glen Assisted Living looked good, but it's not for us because we're still independent. For us, it looked kind of sad. They showed us a room and it looked clean. There's not enough parking. There's not enough place outside for people to enjoy the day or enjoy outside. The staff was really good. There were some people outside sitting and talking. We didn't see any activity. The dining area looked good, was small, but it looked clean."

"The tour I had at Coral Oaks Care Living was decent. The staff was very friendly. They were really good with what they needed to do. I did not care for the facility as much though. I felt it to be outdated, and it had more of a hospital feeling to it. It seemed a little outdated from what other living situations were. The rooms were OK. It's more of the environment that everyone's in. So, they can't really move anywhere else besides the rooms. There weren't really facilities to go anywhere, and then their outdoor facilities were very basic. It was just a concrete patio and a wall around them. I understand that it is winter, but there were no plants. I could see there would be nothing to do, and if I was there and I was elderly, I would be bored out of my mind. I believe their rooms were shared or one room. It's like a hospital room setting where you can have one room for yourself or you can have two and you share. It's OK because you pay a little bit less for that. The reason I'm also listing it as a three is because they have a salad bar that they offer at all times of the day. You can just come over and get some potato salad, macaroni salad, and stuff. It was 11:00 when I went to go to see this facility, and it looked like they were out the day before, and then they put it back out. I would not eat it, and I would not have my father eat it. Nevertheless, the staff was willing to answer any questions. They showed me everything I needed to. They were going to work with me on all my dad's issues that he had."
