They moved my sister into a different room which is a little smaller so they are looking out for her.

The care isn't as good from when my Dad was there. The communication between the staff members is very poor. They are getting to know her. I just think they could improve on how the staff members talk to each other. They should make sure everyone knows about every patient. My mother was without her glasses and there is times when her hearing aid was not working because it didn't have any batteries. There is certain things they are lacking.

Brookdale Oceanside is a very nice facility with very friendly staff. However, I am not sure that my mother is getting the care that she needs. Also, I have not been satisfied with the level of communication that they have had with me as the primary point of contact. She has been there for a couple months and they have only called me once. So there is definitely some room for improvement.

Arrived on time, but had to wait, as it turns out Monique was tied up on the phone and Bernice (activities director?) apparently was asked to give me the tour. Bernice was kind and knowledgeable and did show me all of the facility, however, I came away with the feeling that the 'business' end was on top of their agenda. Monique met us at the end of the tour and took me back to her office to see if I had questions - advised me of a lot of incentives - discounts, financing, etc. Again, while I realize that all of the places are businesses, Emeritus left me with a bit of an uncomfortable feeling and while they would not be removed from our list, it definitely has them placing nearer the bottom.

Not ready for this level of care yet. Too far away and too expensive.

They had one that was two bedrooms but the second bedroom looked like a closet. You could barely fit a twin bed in it. It was very expensive for a second bedroom you couldn't get a single bed into. I left because I thought that was absurd. I thought it was claustrophobic and stuffy.

OK, but a little sterile in terms of both the building and the people. It was clean, definitely clean, but didn't seem as warm. That could have been because of the high rise, it was more like a hospital that a place to live.

Nice facility. Definitely for seniors who are more frail, older, etc. Not for independent living or lightly assisted.

We went and saw this one. On the surface it looked pretty good but that was a fair way away from here and the week I put my wife in there, there was a report on it on the television. It wasn't a very good report. Of course it's a big conglomerate across the United States so some of them are bound to be not quite as good as the others.

It was very nice. It was very clean but there was a very disturbing odor about the place that you often find in nursing homes. I saw the people and they looked so old and so frail. I couldn't live with that. I don't mean to sound cruel but they looked as if they should have been in assisted living, not independent living. We had lunch in there. It was pretty large. I couldn't give you a head count but it was pretty large, I thought. Once you got away from the chandeliers and all the frilly stuff on the ground floor there were long corridors and horrible wall paper. It was not a place I could see myself living so I told the woman I would not be becoming a resident there.

The quality was not what they had advertised. The fact is that they left her in bed all the time and the price went up too so the quality went down but the price went up.

Too expensive $5300.00. Community shower, not good.

Didn't care for the location although it was around shopping. Facility was clean, but older. Staff was very nice. Not our first choice. Annual increase is too high 5-8%.Also respite stay requirement of 14 days was too long.

Liked this place as well. they do have a pool and currently no "Community Fees," and great incentives for moving in. The director is an amazing ambassador for the facility. She gave me a lot of information even if I don't choose them.

Took a quick tour with The Director - very nice place, but a bit farther to drive than we would like. The rooms are pretty small, but doable.

met with manager. Only drawback is no kitchenettes.

Area not too conducive for outings Staff seemed extremely helpful

Nice areas to visit and socialize. Smaller areas to walk around. Higher fees for memory care and other things. Close to freeway, lots of traffic noise. Walking areas somewhat small. Dining areas look good.

Went there, and director was very accomodating... looked at both one and two bedrooms, and the facilities in general. Nice place, well taken care of and residents seemed happy.

Good
