"The Carlotta was very clean and very spacious. The staff was very, very courteous. I didn't interact with them much, but they seemed to be very efficient. The facility was excellent. I felt that it would be a good environment. Expensive, but good. The layout of the room was quite adequate for our needs."

"My friend has moved into Bayshire Rancho Mirage. We found that it was the best value. It's very nice and very clean. They have a lot of activities. They have a skilled nursing facility attached to it. My friend was very sick and went from the hospital directly into skilled nursing and is still there. When he comes out of skilled nursing, they will move him to assisted living and they'll take care of him there. The staff there is lovely. Everybody there is nice. Everybody has a great sense of humor. They all go out of their way to be pleasant. You couldn't ask for nicer people. With regards to activities, they have bingo, karaoke, woodworking, crafts, musical numbers, and entertainment. They have a lot of amenities, and it's a very nice facility. It's the best value that we found. We get the most for the money there."

"I think Rancho Mirage was a comfortable, clean, and aesthetically pleasing place. All the rooms have beautiful views, either the mountains, or a beautiful courtyard. I think the staff and management were very nice. I think there should be more communication, and their nurses could be a little more attentive. It’s a great facility for rehab. "

"My mother in law is in Manorcare Health Services for rehab. Its nice, clean, and the people there are very busy. Shes fed on time, rehabbed twice a day, 6 days a week, and its excellent. I have not gotten any complaints from her whatsoever whenever Im there. Its just constant coming and going, and checking on her, so its good. She said the foods really pretty good. Shes always had a roommate since shes been there. The room is not bad at all, it could be a little bit bigger, but theres no reason for it to be bigger I guess."

"This facility is very clean. The staff does the best they can. Most are very friendly and helpful. This is a thankless job. If you want good care you have to be vigilant in your observations, ask staff about it and visit frequently. Most people don’t visit their relatives regularly. The food could stand to be improved significantly. Less processed food ( no one needs tater tots) would be a plus. Allow staff to have one meal daily as part of their compensation package and watch the improvements begin. How difficult is meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and a frozen vegetable medly? It’s cheaper to cook from scratch so find some cooks that can make real food. Mealtime is the only thing the residents look forward to. I know because I took care of my parents for 6 years. Why feed them crap? "

"My brother is at Desert Springs Healthcare and Wellness Center primarily for wound care. For me, the room is a bit tiny. It could be a bit bigger and more spacious for the patients; it is very tiny. There are two people in a room, sometimes three. But the care is great. He loves the care. He said the wound care is superb there. I like it and he seems to be very happy with it. They give him a list of activities, but right now he is just going to the church services that are offered. The care and the nursing staff seem to be really nice, sweet people. They need to modernize the facility a little bit. "

"It has changed! Patients are cared for physically and emotionally. My pops is thriving. I am so grateful for the love and care they bestow on him and everyone. My pops is wheelchair bound, but he has never had a bed sore or any signs neglect. His physical and mental health have improved since he has been there. The patients smile, and joke with each other and the staff. Not sure? I recommend taking a visit any time, and you will find a clean place, smiling patients and caring staff. And it doesn't smell "funny"."

"In my experience i attended Copper Mountai n College in Joshua Tree California i was in the facility for training purposes to become a Certified Nursing assistant. On my first day on the floor i could not believe how many of the employees ignored the call lights when they went off. On one occasion one of the employees actully said "oh dont answer them right away they are just wanting to complain or something and its never very important" after she said this i thought i might cry cause i was thinking would i want my family member to pay all this money in a facility just to be treated this way? In the short months i was there i realized that not all employees were like that generally most were caring and sweet people who cared for the residents just as much as i did. As for the amenities at the facility i was surprised that they never ran out of anything everything was always clean and nicly stocked, the food was excellent and the activities they provide there sure do keep the residents in a pretty good mood i was proud to train there and miss it terribly and often wish i could go back and if i actually did have the time i would go backfrom time to time. My personal overall experience was fun and uplifting and i was very glad to be a part of that facility if only for a short time. "
