Calson Management

Liked this one the best, as it allowed the residence personalities to be expressed. Residence were out and about and seemingly happy, mingling with each other. Nice facility, less fluff. Many activities to participate in. And safe quadrant to walk in. Memory portion very nice as well. Closer to our home. Ruthie was the best to work with and she was the last of my tours. Memory care unit rooms are shared and very small. Pet allowed in AL side.

New place, open entrance giving you the feeling as though you were on a cruise. They have studio, large studio, 1 bedroom available. Open dining room. Many indoor activities, limited field trips. Will have new addition when needed. Very convenient to freeway.

So kind to all of us my mom will be cared for very well. They have given us such piece of mind knowing my mom is safe and well cared for. They truely love what they do.

Convenient to bus lines; kosher kitchen provides A- Number One meals; many activities including Shabbat services in its own synagogue, shopping trips, frequent recent release films; cordial and helpful staff (we harmless old coots still enjoy being surrounded by lovely ladies). Glad I chose BHCRHS after I retired.

It's great. I did a little research and I came up with this one and my mom seems to be as happy as she can be. We have some friends who have parents in there too and they're very pleased also so that makes us feel good also. Mom's been there for a little over a month and the people that we're talking to that their parents have been there for a year don't have any complaints either. I like the way they conducted business. They were friendly, knowledgeable and willing to work with us. We were under a time crunch and they worked with us very well to meet our needs. Mom gets 3 meals a day. From what I've seen it looks fine and if she's not happy with it they're willing to work with her and get her something else.

We chose Beverly Hills Carmel because it was just very warm; the residents, the staff and even the people that come clean the rooms are very sweet and welcoming. The meals are all home cooked and really taste good. The provide laundry, room cleaning, snacks, tea, library and just about anything else you are looking for. It is located on a kind of busy street but the trees block it out. The community has a central courtyard that provides a place to relax. The community has plenty of windows and provides lots of lighting. There is a sitting area in the community that has a really big window that you can just sit and look at trees. He chose to opt for the option that has two rooms together so he set it up as a living room in one and his bedroom in the other. He can open and close his window as he chooses. We feel like he is not in danger of hurting himself and they really give them the freedom to do as they want while still keeping an eye on him. The dining room and just everything is so pretty its kind of like being on a cruise. You don’t feel like it is a place you put someone in and feel bad about in fact we actually like to visit. We are very happy with Beverly Hills Carmel and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Very pleased with tour, and with director. So far this is on my consideration list if able to get the financial part squared away.

LOVED the single room facing the bluffs. But there is little chance of getting that spot as the resident is happy and well there. Besides, pricey. But it would be my first choice of all if it were an option!

The Lodge at Glen Cove has been so wonderful and accepting of my stepdad. It has meant a lot to our family -- and to my stepdad as well!

I love the facility and staff, wish my mother in law would take advantage of what they have to offer. She refuses to get out of bed, hopefully that will change in the future. She gets along well with the staff except for one. I have to ask sometimes to get her laundry done which I think has to do with being short staffed in housekeeping. I would recommend this facility.

A very good community. They didn't feel that the could provide the care my loved one needed.

This community was very good it was just too expensive for us and cost was just one of the biggest things for us due to being self pay.

Very Nice. Staff are very helpful and knowledgeable. Mom loves all the caregivers and med-tech's that support her everyday. We would choose this living arrangement again if we had to make this decision again.

The staff is all so friendly and helpful. Always willing to help my mom [Removed]. Everything is always so clean. My mom is always clean. The food is really good. The staff in kitchen are so helpful.

Staff is very caring. Community is clean and well kept! Food is good, cookies are great!

There are lots of activities for the residents here. The facility is very bright, cheerful and full of light. I love the atmosphere here. The staff is great and the residents seem very happy and active. They interact with each other well.

Better than average.

All the people there at Orchard Park are super wonderful. Dad is very happy there. The one and only complaint that I have is in regards to the maintenance. For just one example, dad had an issue with his toilet and it took a solid two weeks or so for the issue to be resolved. Other than that everything is great. The people there are all really wonderful, very caring, and very helpful.

My sister and I toured 4 senior communities in Bakersfield looking for a suitable residence for our mom who could no longer live alone, didn't want to live with either of her daughters and was resistant to moving. We immediately liked Pacifica Senior Living. The first thing we noticed was the brightness of the facility. We also noticed the residents sitting in common areas visiting with each other. The Community Director, Ailey, was very friendly and reassuring about the move. The Activity Director, Carol, was energetic and obviously enjoyed her job. The rooms were sized about the same as the other communities, but seemed to be brighter. The layout of the facility made it easy to navigate and less confusing. We also liked that they didn't immediately assume that Mom needed memory care if though we informed Ailey that Mom had diagnosed age-related dementia. She told us they rarely moved someone directly to memory care. They prefer to assess a person over time to see how they can best take care of them. This was a contrast to the other communities. Moving day was stressful, but Ailey and the staff were, beyond expectation, reassuring and helpful. Mom really liked it there which was a huge relief to my sister and me. The only negative comment she ever made was about the food. She thought it too bland, but she wasn't losing weight so we knew she was eating healthy. We were very happy with the attention and care she received and would recommend Pacifica Senior Living Bakersfield for assisted living.

Looked at 5 places and I'm pleased that the right place was Pacifica for my mom. No regrets
