Nursing Home Communities in Ontario, CA

"I am so glad I didn’t pay attention to the negative reviews. My mom fell, hit her head, and ended up with a brain bleed. After spending 20 days in a hospital, we were transferred to Ontario Health Care Center. We arrived late at night, and the staff was ready for us. They took amazing care of my mom right away, got her comfortable in bed, and reassured us that she was in good hands. The next day, the entire administration team came and introduced themselves to me. They clearly laid out the care plan for my mom for the next few weeks. Everything was very well organized, and you can definitely tell that they care deeply and take pride in their facility. While my mom was in the hospital for 20 days, she only received physical therapy twice and spent most of her time in bed. Here at Ontario Health Care Center, within just three days, she had physical therapy three times. They came, got her out of bed, took her to the physical therapy room, and exercised with her. She was even able to take a couple of steps! The alves family"

"My brother is currently receiving care and rehabilitation after being an inpatient at San Antonio Hospital for several weeks. Physical Therapist Shirley has been an answer to our hope for Dave. She has given him the encouragement to build up the skills needed to return home. She is a true dedicated professional and our family is very thankful for her."

"I am a resident of Heritage Park Nursing Center. I love the staff; they are very professional. It's an excellent facility and they have excellent food. They did a great job taking care of me. If I need to be in skilled nursing, if I could, I would just stay here. I love it so much. The building is two stories, and I think there are 75 patients in the building. We have nice rooms, and just great staff, great nurses, CNAs, LVNs, and RNs. There's nothing I didn't like about it, it's just that I don't need to be in skilled nursing anymore. There's no pool here, but they do have a hair salon and a rehab center which is fairly large, for exercise and rehabilitation. Depending on your dietary needs they have nourishment or snacks twice a day. Not every patient has the same doctor, but doctors come regularly. They have a very nice courtyard for those that are capable to go in their wheelchair and go outside. I'm very picky about food, and they provide a lot of alternatives if you don't want what they're going to serve. I have Social Security, and they pay my share of the costs, and the state takes care of the rest. But as far as I'm concerned, there is no question that I got the value for the money."

"I am a resident of Inland Christian Home Inc. The residents and the management were fantastic. They're caring and friendly. They have more activities that I can get involved in. They have dinner every month for the residents if they want to join in with dinner and entertainment. They have activities and games. They have outings."

"My mother-in-law has been in Montclair Manor. The people who works there are very nice. The management was very informative and caring about her costs and things like that. We had a little bit of trouble getting it accurate in the end. There were more bills that came in that we didn't understand. They overcharged us but they reimbursed us and so we were happy. The rooms were adequate and mom was a fall-risk person so they put mats on the floor and they put the bed down and they had adequate stuff for her to prevent any type of fall. The food was good. It was good that they served her a lot of snacks. She did very well there. The facility was old but clean. They needed a lot of maintenance there like painting and some things that needed to be replaced. "

"I was at Rancho Mesa Care Center. The physical therapy was good. I got a lot stronger and better. The food was not very good because I'm so picky. They kept giving me the kind of things that I don't like. Even though I told them over and over, they'd still give me what I didn't like. I was trying to get my appetite back, and so that wasn't helpful. The CNAs were very great. They worked very hard. They tried to get me a wheelchair, but my insurance wouldn't cover it. I was in one room with three other people, and they all spoke Spanish all the time. They were really loud and noisy. Then I was moved to another room, where it was just one other person. It was nice, quiet, and peaceful. I like that. They have rooms where it's two or three or four in a room. Because of COVID, we had to stay in our room. The activity would be coloring, or they let us go outside sometimes. That was nice because then you get exposed to the nice trees, birds, and the mountains."

"Highly recommended facility. Good Care and Very Nice staff. you will find Tender loving care in this facility. "

"My mother was inTrellis Chino for rehab and she loved it there. The staff was good. They didn't really have a dining room, but they have tables for the residents if they want to go out and eat instead of in their room. They have physical therapy, a nice garden, a nice physical therapy room, and they do a lot of activities there."

"My mother is now in Country Villa Claremont Health. The place is nice and the staff there is very good. She tells them if she needs to be fed and they feed her, if she needs to be changed then they change her, and while I'm here everything is fine. My mom wouldn't eat food for a long time, but in this place, they cook homemade food or meals from scratch and she likes it. She's really happy and healthy here. They have speech therapy, physical therapy, OT, they have events, candle-lit dinners, and a lot of good things for the residents. They also have carnivals for the children. It's a very large community, it's clean, and the grass is cut, so it's nice. They have a little patio that the people can use, and we can have parties here."

"We’ve often heard how good the care is at Claremont Manor but they were always full. This past summer, when our mother again needed assistance, Claremont Manor had an opening and we jumped at the opportunity. Everything we had heard about Claremont Manor was true. It’s a very safe and welcoming environment. The management, staff and care team are accommodating, attentive, friendly, and helpful. The communication was informative and very thorough. The physical therapy team was helpful and patient. We are so thankful to have chosen Claremont Manor."

"Pilgrim Place residents bond over a common mission of peace, justice, and care for the earth, and live out this commitment in a variety of ways, both individually and communally. Many residents have had careers in helping professions such as teaching, non-profits, and ministry. This caring spirit continues through active engagement in planning educational and social events, and serving on governance committees that benefit the overall life of the community. In addition to making wonderful friends, I love using the Pilgrim Place Aquatic Fitness Center, having studio space at Pendleton Arts Center, and borrowing books from the Library. Sitting at lunch with a different group of people each day means that I get to know everyone in the community. Most of all, I'm grateful that I entered the community in my 60's so that I can enjoy all the opportunities at the nearby Claremont Colleges and the downtown Claremont Village, in addition to everything at Pilgrim Place."

"We looked at a two-bedroom-two-bath cottage at Mount San Antonio Gardens. You can cook, and you can do whatever you want there. It's in an architecturally distinctive community. It's immediately adjacent to the city of Claremont, and the other place we visited is adjacent to the city of Laverne, but both of them, being from the same time period, are not nearly as congested as the San Fernando Valley or the San Gabriel Valley. The person we worked with had almost as many years' experience as the lady at the other place, except that she was about 20 years younger in age. She is working with seniors, and she has tried to do what she could, but I was more impressed with the overall staff at the other place. Mount San Antonio Gardens is a full-service retirement community inclusive of anything and everything that you could hope for. It is also a fully secure facility. I met and dined with the staff members and the residents who have been there for 10 years, and also those who have been there for a year."

"Pomona Vista Care Center is really good, they've treated my dad very well. They have a nice, clean facility, the staff is friendly and they're good with my father. They also have very good food. They dressed up all the time and they go around like they are suited up in costumes or different characters and they do their duties that way. The layout of the place is nice, and it's in a central location."
