The Best Senior Living Communities in Yucaipa, CA

"We toured The Lakes. It was extremely clean and updated, and the residents seemed happy. The staff was very knowledgeable and also sympathetic to the situation."

"My dad will be moving into Manzanita Village at Rancho Belago's memory care. We just wanted him in a facility with lots of care, and it's a beautiful facility. During our tour, they were informative. We walked through the facility, and it was clean everywhere. The residents were dressed and looked clean, too. They have plenty of staff and I think they had an on-site nurse. They also seemed friendly."

"My in-laws are in Brookdale Loma Linda. They have been very attentive to their needs. They like the food very much. Their living quarters are in a two-bedroom assisted living, which is not a very common thing in assisted living, I've discovered. I'm very thankful for the fact that they do have that option. They have been proactive with their healthcare. They have been working with them to get set up well with having changed facilities and such. It seems to be working very, very well for them. I'm very thankful for that. Everybody was very positive and very intentional in their interactions with people who are living there, and they're helpful. I didn't meet anybody who wasn't very caring. It is very clean. When they moved in, it was in very good order. It was neat, and everything was in good shape. It was very inviting and very welcoming. Compared to where they were before, I feel they weren't getting nearly as much value for almost twice as much money."

"My Brother was a resident at Hillsong for over a year until he passed away. Hillsong works with any Hospice service the family chooses. Owner and staff were knowledgeable, caring, sensitive and accommodating to his needs; very communicative with family members and always available. Environment is safe, clean and quiet. Residents and family are treated respectfully. I highly recommend this care facility. "

"My wife is currently at the Villas at San Bernardino. She's in the memory care unit. They do both assisted and memory care. They're very clean. The food smells good. The only thing that they're lacking at all is just a little bit of understaffing, but everybody's having a problem with that. The rooms are nice especially in assisted living, because, memory care has to be under lock and key whereas assisted living does not. They have an elevator. The staff is very nice and very friendly. Nobody's perfect, but they try hard and they're very good. They seem to be very knowledgeable. I just find it hard where to find fault with them. They have a chef. For my wife, everything has to be pureed. She can't eat anything solid without choking, so they make everything. They can fulfill any special diet. She has a roommate and the roommate's daughter and son-in-law, I've met them and talked to them, and they said they looked far and wide and couldn't find a better place."

"Sunrise at Canyon Crest was very pleasant. The rooms were very nice. They have a cottage style where there are a few rooms around the central dining room. That was a very, very nice arrangement. They have a lot of activities that occur, not necessarily daily, but they have activities where they get the residents together to do crafts and they have a bus where they take them out to go on a drive or some of the people, if they want to get out, they go to a shopping center. We had food there and it was good. There was a menu and you could choose. The facility was excellent"

"Westmont of Riverside is a beautiful community surrounded by 55-plus housing, so it's a very normal neighborhood-like environment that you drive through to get to their facility. It had a nice little fountain in the front, lots of parking, and it was beautiful and quite lovely. We were late, we called them first, and they were very gracious about it. The lady who helped us was very professional. She was a little off-putting at first, but I think that's because we were so late and we were probably interrupting her schedule, but she got over it quickly enough. She was very pleasant and certainly knew what she was talking about. They had a lot of things for people to do. They have a lovely library that is huge. We also went by what she called an art room. It was dark, no one was in there at the time, so I don't know exactly what they had in there, but she said that is where they have painting and stuff. They also had a sort of thing like when you're in old high school and there are recesses in the wall with glass where awards go. They had those types of things, and they had celebratory seasonal things displayed there. It stands out because nobody else did it. They had what looked like a giant activities room where they played Bingo. She said they also had various things that went on there at that particular time; they were doing bingo. One standout thing there, and I can only give the very basics of it, is that they had an on-site doctor. You don't have to use the doctor, but in probably all the old people's cases, they're all going to have doctors, and if you move a distance, which my sister would be, she's going to have to find another doctor within her group. While she's looking for a doctor, they have an on-site doctor, so she could sign up with them. It doesn't have to, though; they were clear about that. Most of the things that these old people are going to have going wrong with them are colds and flu, and they need shots and basic stuff that a GP is efficient for. It's really convenient to be able to book a doctor right there on-site. You can also get your pharmacy needs there, which is also nice. You don't have to, it's clear, but you could. They also had transport there, where if your doctor was off-site and you booked an appointment, you could book transport with them to get to the appointment."

"VIPHealth Services is a clean facility. My mom's happier than she's been in a long time. She shares a room with somebody. She has her own TV. There's a bed and a dresser. The staff are friendly and accommodating. They let us have my mom's birthday there. They provided chairs for us to use and they were very nice."

"I toured The Grove Assisted Living. The environment and the people are very nice. They have a gym. The bathroom was maybe too small. When I go in, it will be difficult for me to turn around because I have a power chair. They don't have a rolling shower. So they have to change it if I need something like that."

"The location of Maple Guest Home was perfect. The facility was excellent. I liked the patient-to-staff ratio. Everyone was very professional. I feel that they would be able to perfectly supply the need that we need for my mom. They have a place outside. Mom likes outside to where she can be nice and comfortable and get sunshine. I liked the whole atmosphere."

"I love Brookdale Sunwest. I was very impressed with it. I like the setup. It is all indoors, so I feel safe for my mother. It's clean and organized. I met friendly staff. I asked about medicines, and they said they would order them. My mother would have a Life Alert device on her, which I like. They provide three meals a day. I saw some activities. They would clean the rooms. I'm really happy with them. If I had to go, I would like to be there, too. I like the furniture they have in the dining room, and I like how the lobby is set up. It's very nice. I looked at everything. The dining room was very nice. Everything was up-to-date."

"I visited Pico De Loro. Everything was very nice. I had a lot of resources but the cost was too much. They showed everything, the rooms, the bedding, and the dining areas. I sampled the meal and the food was good. The facility was great. It's very clean. They had very nice and good quality programs for them. The staff was helpful and easygoing."

"The Camelot has been upgraded. It's in the price range that I can afford. Everything's provided in the cost and they have different specials at different months. It seemed like it was pretty well taken care of, and the dining room and all of the facilities seemed adequate. They're newly painted apartments. It looked like the menu was pretty good. The staff answered all our questions. She was very knowledgeable and easy to talk with. We could have had a meal there if we had been there during the mealtimes, but we weren't, so we didn't taste the food."

"I've been in Hacienda Senior Living Assisted Living & Memory Care a little over a year. I'm in assisted living. I take care of myself. They just give me my medication, feed me, and shower me, and that's it. It's very good. I love it here. It's not like some of the other ones that are real big. This is smaller and you get more care. I have my own room. They have a fountain outside the grounds and they have fruit trees here. They take good care of you. They're really nice. I really like them all. It's excellent food. They give you so much food. We don't have a lot of activities. They're in the process of hiring somebody to come in here and do activities with us. There's another section where people need more help, have Alzheimer's, and stuff like that. The people where I'm at can take care of themselves, and there are only about five of us in this area. Value for money is OK."
