Nursing Home Communities in Arroyo Grande, CA

"My mother has been at AGCC for nearly a month. Everytime I visit, I observe more and more things that impress me. The rooms are spotless.. The nurses are friendly and professional. The physical therapists are very knowlegable and take time to communicate with me regarding my mom's treatment. The aids are sweet, attentive, and skilled. The activities are varied. My mom is very shy and has never been one to socialize. The last time i visited her, she asked me to take her to the recreation room. "I think i should get back now and be with my friends," she said. Another day she told me, "At night, it is just like a big happy family." Even the other patients are delightful and warm hearted. I am so relieved to know that my mom is in such good hands. Hats off to you, AGCC. "

"The therapists at Mission View Health Center were very good, and the aides were very helpful. The staff was very attentive and treated us well. One of my therapists downloaded some apps for me, like puzzles to work on my memory and cognitive skills. Some days, the food was very good, but other days, it was fair. The nice thing was that you can request certain things. I talked to the nutritionist and told her how I missed yogurt, so right away, she sent me yogurt and had it in every meal since then. They fed you regularly right on time. They had two different outdoor areas, and I usually went to the smaller one because it was right off of my room. It had a small garden and a little koi pond. It looked very pleasant, especially at sunset."

"My mother stayed at San Luis Transitional Care for several months. I love that place. The rooms entered onto a center open area/common area, so that if you're in your room, you could still be in the main part of the facility and shut your door if you wanted. There was a roommate situation. It had outdoor patios on each room, so that I could take her out and you could sit outside and go for walks on their concrete walkways and wheelchairs and walkers were very easily used. There was a big glass door in each room. There were two main areas on either end and then the nursing staff was in the middle. They had physical therapy every day except for Sunday and dog and cat groups visited. They had bingo and activities in the evening after dinner. They had special movie nights with popcorn, and Sundays they had ice cream day. Ahead of time you could order lunch and eat with your parents. I had an issue with one of the nurses; she was not happy with the fact that I was calling so often and interrupting her rounds and she would not call me back. They got annoyed with me. I liked the building itself because it wasn't big. They're only a 50-patient facility, so it makes it easier for the nursing staff to give more time and more attention. They had someone who fell and hit their head and had to go to the hospital, but their nursing staff was spread so thin."

"I like what I saw at Country Oaks Care Center. It was very clean and nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They have activities for the residents. It's expensive, but I'm satisfied with it. My stepmother did not have any complaint. They keep me posted if there were any problems."

"My mom is currently staying at Marian Extended Care Center, and I would rate them the highest. I do like them. It's clean, they keep the facility up to date, and the kitchen areas seem very clean too. Just that it bothers me sometimes when they get in a hurry when they want to give her a sunbath or whatever. She says the food is good though and the place is quieter than the other one, and some of the staff are very helpful, but some are very snotty. They seem to be up to par on her medications, and they keep me more updated than the other place did. Since the COVID thing, I don't think they really had any activities as of now, but I know at one time, they used to take them out in the patio area and let them sit out there and refresh in the sun. I don't know if they even let them do that now."
