Assisted Living Communities in Sierra Madre, CA

"I toured and the place was delightful, homey, and welcoming. There were people around engaged and the residents were out, it felt friendly. The room that I saw was spacious and clean, and most of them had a lot of outside space. The staff who gave the tour was delightful, enthusiastic, and welcoming. I didn't sample the food but the dining area looked great. In terms of activities, I saw one impromptu game of mahjong and board games."

"My grandfather initially had reservations about relocating, but the warm and hospitable reception he encountered has enabled him to embrace this new chapter in life. He has formed valuable friendships with fellow residents and has been made to feel an integral part of this community, enhancing his overall well-being. We are highly satisfied with the quality of care he has received here. The staff's attentiveness and support have been exceptional. The menu offers a variety of appealing options, and we appreciate their encouragement for him to engage in the activities. This community is truly outstanding, and we wholeheartedly endorse their services for other families in need of care."

"I liked Sparr Heights Estates Senior Living. It was the first place we saw, and it was much smaller. The area where everything was done (like watching TV or doing their exercise classes) was smaller. At that time, the majority of the individuals were in walkers or wheelchairs and really weren't getting around. I have two friends whose parents were in that facility. Both of them were extremely happy with it. They really liked the facility and had no issues with it. The lady that took me around was very nice. She was a different person than we initially were scheduled with. There were a couple questions that she wasn't sure about the answers to, which we would have been able to talk to the person we were initially supposed to go on the tour with. The apartments were also smaller, but they were nice and clean. The challenge was they didn't offer nearly as much as the other facility did. Their prices were lower, but they didn't have cable included in the price. It depends on what your needs are. They also didn't do field trips. They didn't have a craft room, but they had exercise classes."

"I'm really impressed with Clearwater at Glendora. It's just beautiful. You're in a little resort, and I actually wouldn't mind living there myself. What I like best is how clean it is. The staff members seem very caring. They were very interested. They treated me very well. We tried the food and it was delicious. They really impressed me. Marlina gave us the tour, and she was wonderful. The patients looked happy. They all looked like they were busy doing little arts and crafts and just enjoying each other's company. They have a salon, which is very nice. They have excursions, which are fantastic for the residents to get them away for a couple of hours. It's just really nice. There's really nothing bad that I can say about the whole experience."

"With Glen Terra, I was very impressed when I looked at the rooms. The three that were shown to us were very spacious for my mother, but not too large for her. They have lovely dining room area with linen table cloths and flowers on the table. The gentleman that I spoke with, Carlos Vera (I think was his last name), was very accommodating to us. He led us to believe that he and his staff will be very mindful of my mother as well as any facility should be. He's coming from a nursing background which makes him possibly a little more sensitive and positive towards the elderly or those who are choosing to live in that particular facility. Their facility will be assessing my mother on where she is, her level of ageing, and what is needed for her and her care."

"I've been here in Leisure Vale Assisted Living for 26 years now. I'm very content here. I'm grateful. It's a good place. I have no complaints. The food is excellent and it's adequate. Medical care is very good. When I was sick, they took very good care of me and they treat me well. It is in a good area near stores and bus lines. Every apartment here has a restroom, a shower and a toilet and my room upstairs has plenty of light and air from the windows and I have a roommate. She's very nice and I'm very happy with her. We have three meals a day and a common dining room. We have three activity people and we have karaoke singing. We have bingo. Sometimes they have ice cream and cake like the other day. They have a big screen TV in the living room. Sometimes, we have musical entertainment also. We have van service. They do their jobs well. They care. I have no complaints about the staff. I get my medicine every day. They give it to me. They serve me my meals. They have three maintenance men. It's very clean. The activity people are very nice, very caring, and very helpful. They have a back patio for smokers and they're trying to get people to smoke only in the back, but sometimes they smoke on the front, which is one thing I don't like. We have a nice front yard with grass, flowers, bushes and trees. We have three benches to sit on that are very nice to sit outside."

"They ignored our loved one. Uber staffed. Don’t answer emails and don’t communicate. "

"On the occasions I have visited Sakura Gardens, I have found the facility to be impeccably clean and was impressed by the friendly and caring staff. Most importantly is that my aunt is always smiling and cheerful, a good sign of the care she is receiving. Shin, in particular, is always helpful and makes sure our questions are answered."

"Hollenbeck Palms is phenomenal. The facility and staff are outstanding. The environment and the meals are beyond incredible. The apartments are phenomenally well cared for. The activities are numerous. They are in wide variety and flexible topics. They have card games, movie and music activities. They have field trips to concerts, operas and theaters. They make arrangements for people to come to their facility as well as for the residents to go out to local venues. I am so pleased and lucky that my mom is there. "

"I toured Park View Place. The facilities are newer. It's not a very big facility. Everybody seemed to know each other. Everything was well organized and clean. The staff was great. Everyone was welcoming and willing to answer any questions we had. The place was extremely clean. We saw two rooms, and they were in great shape. There's nothing wrong with it."

"Emeritus was a really nice place but kind of expensive. It was clean and it seemed like Beverly Hills. It looked so neat and it did have everything. There was even a place where they wash your clothes right there in the facility. It was self-sufficient and that's what I like. It was a little more expensive than the other facility but it was self-sufficient. The staff was also very helpful. "

"My parents are at Glen Park at Glendale, and it's going great. They have adjusted to this better than the assisted living they had been at previously, and the staff seems more attentive. Overall, it's very good. It's very clean and very well kept. It has a Hollywood theme with famous old movies off of the wall, and it gives them a lot to talk about. The room that they got was immaculate, and the food was pretty good. It felt homey."

"It is a very good facility. It has a great view. The food is excellent. The people who showed us around were very friendly. Everybody there was very friendly. Even strangers that we passed by in the hallway or in the yard, they were saying, "You'll love it here!" The residents seemed very pleased with this place. "

"I highly recommend this place. The facility is exceptionally clean and beautifully maintained, creating a warm and welcoming environment. The staff is professional, kind, and truly dedicated to caring for the residents. Their service is excellent, and it's clear they go above and beyond to ensure everyone feels at home. The meals are also well-prepared and nutritious. Overall, it's a wonderful place that offers comfort, care, and peace of mind for families."
