Memory Care Communities in Huntington Beach, CA

"Carmel Village was the facility I liked the best. It was very well maintained. The staff was very nice. The food was excellent. It had a good location. The grounds were very nice and very well maintained with flowers and walking paths. The units were pretty small, which was a little bit of a drawback. "

"I toured Meadowlark Gardens VII. I like the cleanliness of that location and the ability for wheelchair accessibility. The location is very good, and communication within the staff. At that location, each has individual rooms, which was greatly appreciated. They were spacious. They were furnished minus the television if that's what you wanted. The staff, I observed interacted individually with the residents, and was just very involved with them, and I liked that a lot."

"The level of care and concern that Brookdale Brookhurst has is excellent. Mom missed breakfast one time and they came knocking on her door. She was on the phone and she missed it, but they were on it. They wanted to make sure she was OK and that made me and my family feel very comfortable. The other bonus is my mom, thankfully, is a very social being and she has benefited from the social aspect of Brookdale Brookhurst. She's involved in field trips right now, sitting together with other people at dinner, and playing bingo, which is not something that she's accustomed to, but she's enjoying herself at every level. The cleanliness of the place, the receptivity of the cooking staff, and the staff in general have just been phenomenal. We are extremely happy with the results. It's a blessing because she's loving it and thriving way more than she did when she was living by herself. She's capable of living independently, but she's taking advantage of all the activities that they have to offer."

"My aunt will move into Ivy Terrace at Santa Ana. The staff was very friendly, responsive, and helpful. The place was clean, wonderful, smelled great, and had a great atmosphere. It felt like a home away from home. It felt clean and inviting. There are plenty of amenities there. I like that they have open areas. They'll switch them out for different venues and dinner. I liked that they were doing a Sunday Mass. It was cool that they had other things available, and the rooms were nice."

"I toured Beach Terrace Assisted Living & Memory Care. It was bright with lots of natural sunlight. The interior, the way it was decorated was beautiful. The common space was huge. It just feels so welcoming. I saw the menu and it looked like a menu at a restaurant. What was on the menu was pretty interesting, like salmon, asparagus, squash, and stuff like that. I saw a shared room. It was nice. I like the semi-private room, and the room on each side was huge. You can really put a six-seating dining room table and a full-size bed. The shared bathroom was in between and they had doors from each side of the room for the bathroom. They had a big picture window. The staff was so gracious. He was so informative. The tour was guided by the guy who worked there, but the guy that I already had was the one who took me. He was the one who was already familiar with the place, and between what I heard and what I saw, I was more impressed with Beach Terrace."

"I went to Rowntree, and it was very pretty. From what I understand, it is probably best for somebody who can start out in independent living then they can get the long-term care, but my parents are farther along. The staff seemed OK; I was just there for a brief time. It looked safe and secure. I liked the beauty of it; the gardens were very beautiful. "

"My dad moved in a week ago. The place seems nice. The staff was amazing so far. I toured the place, and they have great rooms. It was spacious and good. I paid for a double room, but he is by himself because they're low on people right now. So he will be getting a roommate, I imagine. It seems like they keep them busy all day long. They have a calendar of activities. The first day there, he's on their Facebook page dancing like two hours after he got there. So that was a good one. They have so much room. They have a huge amount of walking area. I haven't seen that in any other place. It's all dementia and Alzheimer's there, so there's no assisted living. They can go outside, walk around, and circle. It's pretty cool. That's good for him because he's a walker. The place seems awesome."

"Brookdale Garden Grove was very clean, inviting, and comfortable. The dining room is an impressive, large, multi-use room, and the tables are not crowded together. There's a display of the next meal's choices so people can see what the meals will look like. One thing that's impressive is that there isn't a lot of room for the residents to get clustered around the desk right at the entrance. They have an outdoor porch where some of them sit instead of crowding the entryway. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The food had been palatable, attractively presented, and there are lots of options."

"We placed my wife in Newport Beach. It was practically brand-new at a year old and designed to be a memory care center. It's really nice, and they have stuff going on every day, like games, music, yoga, exercise, and arts and crafts. "

"Mom is here; everything is fine, and we’re very happy with it. The food is fine; they have a menu. We were looking at cost, location, and support staff, and we felt that they met our needs. The facility is very close to us. "

"We are restricted from seeing our grandma during the pandemic and we miss her very much. The executive director is sending out multiple weekly updates to us family members and is sending us pictures of all the extra fun activities they are doing to keep the people occupied. We even Skyped with grandma! They are doing a great job during the crisis. Thank you for making us feel that grandma is safe during a difficult time."

"We toured the Pacifica Senior Living South Coast's memory care unit. Their facility was a little more constrained, less open, and less of an area to live your life, I guess. The staff who assisted us during the tour was very cooperative and open enough to answer questions. The room we saw was very nice-looking and clean, but one thing we did not like about it was that it had a shared bathroom."
