Nursing Home Communities in Carlsbad, CA

"Exceptional and friendly staff "

"Seacrest Village at Encinitas Leichtag Foundation Campus provides exceptional support. They have the whole spectrum of care. We are in independent living right now, but in the future, the care we need is right here on the campus. The staff is very well trained and very supportive and they provide reliable service. It's great. They're short-staffed like everybody else. They can't get the help that they want, but the people who are here are doing a very great job of trying. They all work hard and are very accommodating. We have a dining room and the food is very good. It's healthy and well-prepared. It's kosher. So, that restricts the food and you have to follow kosher rules. There's a full gym, an indoor swimming pool, classes, game rooms, and structured lectures. Just the standard, but it's pretty well done. It's an older population so it's geared towards that age group."

"My wife was in the center following a heart attack and horrible treatment at another facility. The nursing care is very good, Amanda, the charge nurse was excellent. The wound care was excellent. Christopher and Tim the cnas were very polite and attentive.My wife has been in 4 care facilities in north county and this was , by far the best. Laraine even liked the food. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Vista Life Care!! "

"You have to visit this place! If you are trying to find a hoe for your loved one, look no more! They energy as soon as you walk in is positive and “fun”. They offer many different activities throughout the day, they also have such a great staff! I had a few questions and was unsure about a few things but they were right there with answers and was even able to show me around some more to calm my nerves about the move in if my loved one. Very much enjoyed this place. The residents looked like they enjoyed it as well, smiling faces and good energy all around! You have to visit this place if you are looking for a home for your loved one. "

"My mother-in-law has been in Encinitas Nursing and Rehabilitation Center for about two weeks now. It is a clean, well-managed place with lots of good care and good food. We are pretty happy with it. We chose it because it is close to us, and it has good reviews. I will highly recommend them because their overall care is good, and they have a good staff. "

"I had great care after back surgury,plus my mother is there and gets great care,everyone knows her name and her medical problems and keep a good eye on her.The rooms are a great size so she can have her own furnishings around her not like a box hospital room. "

"Mom is in Palomar Health Rehabilitation Institute. It's so clean, everyone is so professional, it's very organized, and they encourage people to get back to full health. They're like angels. My mom said the food was not as good as the other place, but she can be very picky. When I saw the food, it looked really good. The place is immaculate, beautiful, modern, clean, and very conducive to healing. They even have a garden. They took my mom out and had her do a little gardening as part of her occupational therapy. They have a little car, so they can practice getting in and out of a car. They have rooms set up with kitchens and things that people need to work with at home. They thought of everything. There's a gym. I've seen a putting green. Whatever their activities are, it's part of the overall therapy. The rooms are excellent, very clean, very well laid out, have windows with a view, and it's bright, airy, and cheerful. There should be more of these facilities around because if you're going to get better, this is what you need. If I needed one, I'd want to be there."

"I was at Palomar Continuing Care Center for three weeks. It wasn't really bad. They were pretty good, and the rehab people were fantastically good. They did a good job, as far as I am concerned, because I got back to walking again. The food was alright. The woman in-charge was kind of unpleasant. I had a caregiver who is trained and very knowledgeable, who was working with me at that time, and they wouldn't let him in the place. "

"My husband was in Valle Vista Post Acute for about 2 months from August to October 2023. He was rehabbing from a leg amputation. My husband also has dementia, so it is a complicated situation. The care there was very good, the nurses were attentive, he was kept clean, and his wound care was superb. The most important aspect of the stay for us was the physical therapy. I can't say enough about the physical therapy group, especially Rod, he was caring and took the time to overcome my husband’s muddle mind. My husband came home being able to transfer himself to his wheelchair easily. They also worked with me to help train me on how to transfer him from the bed to the wheelchair, help with how to pick him up if he fell, and how to transfer him to the car. This has made the homecare for him much easier. Although the facility is older, it has been updated and is clean. The view around the facility is beautiful and there are nice areas to take your family members out to see the views."

"We moved into Meadowbrook about ten years ago - one of the first. We could not believe the quality of all aspects of the Village - really first class design and construction. The pricing was quite less than the many other places we looked at - I told them I hope you know what you are doing, but was assured that the place has been totally paid for and has a good financial plan. I was elected the first Chairman of the Residents' Council and can vouch that is true. Wonderful neighbors. We are so fortunate to have found this place!! They have all levels of care and great amenities."

"Redwood Terrace is a good community, they have independent living, and also memory care. It's upscale. They have individual cottages, and the rooms were adequate. The location is convenient to the city of Escondido. The dining area was very good, they and offer three meals a day. They have all kinds of activities, from the local theaters to different kinds of special nights like bingo. They also have music and a piano player who comes in on a regular basis."

"I was able to visit Juehm Residential Care, and this facility is very nice and clean also. They offer care for bathing, dressing, and med management as well. The staff were very nice and accommodating, so it was a very good experience. I saw a shared room as well as a private room. "

"My husband is in the Life Care Center of Escondido for rehab. The staff is very involved and they follow through well on everything. The facility is really clean and well maintained. The gardens, the hallways are shining and the floors are well-kept. Everything is immaculate all the time. They have an outdoor patio where if the patient can go in a wheelchair, you can wheel him out into the outdoor patio. There's only one downfall to the outdoor patio, and that's if somebody closes the door and you're out there, don't put the little wedge in between the door to keep it cracked open. You're trapped out there. And there's no way to get back into the facility from that patio if the door gets shut behind you, and there's no way to call anybody or anything. There's not a button you could push for a doorbell or anything. You're just trapped out there. They have a therapy room. The communication is very good, they have a great social worker there, and she calls me at home, or we talk when I go to visit him almost every day."
