The Best Senior Living Communities in Taft, CA

"We went over to Redwood Senior Living in Bakersfield. We did a tour of their assisted living and liked the place. It was clean, and the staff were very friendly. The place is nice, big, and airy. They're not all crowded into one little room because the rooms are big. The community room and the meal room were all very nice. They have a great big backyard with nice trees for shade. I know it gets really warm over there, but they have big trees in the back and the front. They also have tables out and around so that you can sit under the trees. It's nice."

"My dad moved into Paradise Gardens last October. It's a private home, for one thing. It's not an institution. I like the fact that it was homey. It was very warm. It smells good. They have animals. My father loves animals. And so they have dogs and cats that interact with the residents. The staff was very, very welcoming and very warm. It was pretty, and they had a nice backyard. My father has a beautiful, private room, private bath with a beautiful view of the backyard. So it was a nice place. They only have one roll-in shower, and it's actually in someone else's room. It would be nice if all of the showers are roll in, if they put up the money to make them all roll-in showers."

"Bella Vita Senior Living was nice. The layout was nice. I like the staff. They're just super helpful and willing to accommodate. They have nice rooms for the seniors. They have a cute kitchenette in the studio area. It was really cute, and it was nice. I just couldn't afford it. They have nice courtyard. They had just finished some game."

"Cobble Stone Residential Home Care was very nice and clean. They got a friendly and competent staff. The room they had was nice, open, and furnished. Everything was well taken care of. What I liked the most about it was it was a home and not a facility. It had a small number of residents, so I liked it better."

"The staff at Village Gardens provided wonderful loving care to my mother. The house is beautiful and we found it to be comfortable and peaceful. They even have a little dog that my mom just adored. They served healthy and good tasting food that mom really enjoyed. That was important to us. The strived to provide fun activities, outings, as well as group and individual exercise. They took care of all of moms medications and refills, which made it so easy for me. They helped with arranging and providing transportation to appointments when we weren't able to get mom there. They worked very hard to make holidays special for all the residents. They made moms last birthday beautiful. We will always be grateful for the love and care Village Gardens provided to my mother and our whole family. "

"Brighton Manor was way out of my price range. The staff was nice. They had a nice TV room and stuff like that. It was pretty nice. The rooms were smaller than the other, but price-wise, compared to the other, they are substantially higher for what it was. The rooms were nice because they had their pictures and their names on the outside of the room so they could find their rooms easier."

"Mom will be moving in March at Brookside Senior Apartment. She likes this place because they have a community center where she can make friends and she won't be alone all the time and that is also the reason why she wanted to move there. She will be in a one bedroom apartment. It's very spacious for her and they keep the facility really good. They have bingo, they also have dinners, and sometimes they have people come for entertainment. They also have exercise equipment. They also have people to come into your apartment to clean it for you for an extra fee and they also have people to come in to help the residents with their medications. "

"My father-in-law is in Arcadia Gardens, and he has dementia. He has only been there two weeks. He likes the food, and he eats 100% of all of his meals. They are very attentive and take very good care of him. It's a beautiful clean house. We chose it because of its location and the staff; it also fit into our budget. "

"I believe the tour we had was successful, and it was very insightful. The facility to me was a friendly facility, and I felt like the atmosphere was good for seniors. They had many activities and the rooms were nice. I was very excited that they offered the laundry service. That's the only facility that offered the full laundry service, not just linens. So, that was nice. When I was there, they had happy hour, and they were serving, and they had live music, and everyone that I spoke with just seemed happy. And it was just a very, very nice tour, and the price was right. They had a variety of apartments. The one-bedroom apartment was spacious and the bathrooms were gorgeous, just what a person would need for anything. All the bathrooms were the same. They were all nice, everything was clean. I always smell to make sure everything is OK and everything smelled good. My mother loves to read books, so they had a library for her to read, and they gave me a calendar with all of the events that they have, and they take tours and little trips out, and church was a big deal for her. They have a church service, and then she can also be taken to her own church on Sundays. It looked like a hotel, it was beautiful. It was three stories. It was very nice."

"Summer Springs Board and Care is really good. It's managed by a family and the people that run it lives on site. It's owned by a couple, an RN and a physical therapist. The in-laws are the licensed caregivers. It's very family-oriented. When dad gets restless, they take him for a ride in a car or takes him to their house for a little while and gives him the change of scene. It's not as fanciest, but they really care about the people. They never know when I'm coming because I go different days and different hours. They have stationary bike and he rides that, he can go for a walk, and they play games with him. They bathe him and make sure he's clean. He's eating and he's happy. They bring him to church on Sunday. He gets two free rides to doctors during the month, and that's unusual. They do the laundry. I told them I'll take the laundry I'm going to do it, and they do it. So I can't believe how bless I was to find them. They kept their word on everything. So I'm very happy. "

"Their rooms are really clean and tidy! Some of them are really spacious and nice! They are mostly a home setting, so it's like being taken care of at our own home 24 hours a day. I noticed they're very patient and caring people. Even when they're busy, they take the time to listen to our requests and needs. And they do their best to prioritize our family and decide what's best for my grandmother given the circumstances. When my grandmother was suffering from a bad flu, they immediately let us know and were able to clearly communicate how she was doing and showed their concerns and advised us on what to do. I got to say, if it weren't for their help, I doubt my grandmother would have recovered. When my grandmother was there, I noticed that the residents like to play bingo sometimes and that the staff would also help them with some daily exercises. I strongly recommend this facility for anyone wanting compassionate and experienced people!"
