Assisted Living Communities in Whittier, CA

"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."

"My dad has just got there at Park Regency Retirement Center. I visited the location during my trip to California. It was quite busy at the time. Overall, I think the facility has a lot to offer. It's a very good and clean facility. During my visit, I had to make an appointment to meet one of the staff for them to tour me around. They provided me a lot of information about the location. I had to return to Texas, so I do not have any visitation to my father once he got in there yesterday. I haven't had a chance to see his room because I was just touring around the facility. I saw some of their dining area. They have a location where there were folks do physical therapy. They had a lot of staff overlooking at everybody. I went to the location where they had a physical therapy or exercise room. The buildings were not built in 2020. They've obviously have been there for a while, but they were very well-kept. The facilities were very clean, and the staff was very attentive. They have staff that spoke multiple languages. Someone spoke Spanish, which I can understand as well. They were very thorough in terms of making sure that I was vaccinated and checking my temperature before I was allowed to go in. They had a set of questionnaires to make sure that I didn't have any symptoms, and I thought that that was very thorough. They had a pretty big parking lot, but it was pretty much full around 11:00 or so. The parking lot was literally completely full, and I thought that was quite amazing."

"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 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."

"Lakewood Park Manor provides a healthy environment, excellent food, comfy amenities and activities for all residents. It is a safe place to call your new home. I have wanted to post this 5-star review on behalf of my mother. She highly recommends this place. The care my mom receives at this facility was definitely appreciated by all of our family!"

"My favorite place is Ivy Park at Cerritos. I went there two weeks ago. I liked it, and they invited me to the Easter egg hunt last Friday, so my mother and I went. They asked us to stay for lunch, so we sat in the dining area, had lunch, and everything was perfect. It seems like it's well-managed. There were lots of employees and all the residents living there are all well taken care of. There's a lot of help. The staff was very nice. It was very clean. There are a lot of facilities, a lot of places where residents can go and play with puzzles or Monopoly or something. There were lots of rooms for them to enjoy themselves and be together. I liked it. The atmosphere was very friendly and very open. Residents were walking around when you walked in. They're very friendly, saying hi, and welcoming us."

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

"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."

"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."

"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."

"My husband moved into Brookdale Brea. I like the staff. Everybody is very friendly. The residents all seem very happy. They're very welcoming. The food is very good. I've had it myself. They were very gracious to offer food to sample before we made a decision, because that was a big concern for us. Everything is very clean and well-kept, so just overall really good experience so far. They serve three meals a day. They have a very nice dining room. They encourage the residents to go there to eat. Frankly, if you don't go there to eat, there's a charge, so that's encouraging, too. But it is a very pleasant dining area, and they encourage families to come and join in. There's a charge for that understandably, but they do encourage that if you want to. The only challenge with the overall facility is that parking is not always available. Now they had just remodeled and upgraded my husband's room before he moved in, so new cabinetry, everything was painted, a new air conditioning, everything. So, from our perspective, it's very, very nice, and everything is well-maintained. But the parking is a little bit of a challenge. They have a variety of things to do. They have a very nice patio area, too, and the residents are all encouraged to have a role. So they have elected a president, and they have a board, and so they get a lot of engagement. And even in some of the residents' gardens in the patio area, the herbs are used in food preparation. It's just things like that that we didn't find in other places where they are encouraging everybody to participate, contribute, and be part of the community. The other thing that they do that I really appreciate is they honor their veterans."

"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. "
