Nursing Home Communities in Morro Bay, CA

"We visited Bayside Care Center. From our interview with the employees, it seemed like a suitable facility for my loved one. The rooms were normal size. They didn't have bathrooms in these rooms. All of them were semi-private rooms. It is in a nice community; it is kind of built on a hillside. It would be nice to have a little more outdoor area for the patients to go to, but that's the only thing that I can see that could use some improvement. "

"My friend was at Danish Care Center for a couple of months for rehab. They did the job, and the people were very friendly and very willing to help any way they can. Everything was really good. They just need to figure out the cracks in communication from one department to the other, as far as doctors' appointments and coordinating transportation, and communication in general from the nurses' station to the transportation person. We had a few challenges with that."

"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."

"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 dad has been at Vineyard Hills Health Center for 2 weeks now. They are very attentive to his needs. They have a very good and very knowledgeable staff, and they have a lot of staff members. They have a great therapy program and a speech therapy program, and he's doing very well there. My father is happy with the food that they serve."
