Pacifica Senior Living

Leisure Pointe Is a very nice facility, the people are very reasonable, and willing to work with us, regarding price. My wife had knowledge, of them though members of her Bible study group.. It was considering the issue a good experience

While searching for "A Place for Mom" we were directed to Emeritus at Sterling. It was the first community we visited and honestly, they set the bar very high. From Barb, the ED, to Chloe, to the receptionists, we were overwhelmed at the genuine care and concern they displayed for their residents. The condition of the building and the quality of the food and programs far surpassed all other local residences. I only wish my mother had lived long enough to spend her remaining time there. We stop by occasionally to chat with Chloe and Barb and some of the other staff. They were genuinely that friendly, caring, and kind.

They do a great job here, my loved ones really seem to have found somewhere they like. It's a nice looking, clean community, and the staff have all been very friendly. They do an excellent job with the services they provide, in terms of both care and the community activities.

Pacifica provides just about everything that my Mom needs now that her dementia has progressed. It is small, easy to navigate, quiet, and simple. The caregivers are kind and very friendly and very respectful of the elders.

They are great! The staff are all very wonderful! My loved one's caregiver is so sweet, and she just fell in love with her! The caregivers are so nice, and all of the residents are nice too. My loved one has already made friends, and they eat meals together and go on walks together. Such a wonderful place!

My father moved into Monte Vista Village a few months ago and he is very happy there. He has taken advantage of all the center has to offer and is very pleased with the property. It is well maintained, the people are very friendly and the staff is very helpful. We visited several facilities in San Diego before Choosing Monte Vista Village and we were pleasently surprised at what Monte Vista had to offer. We especially like the park like surroundings. Tracey, the Marketing Director was very helpful and accomodating as my father made his tranisition from out of state, into Monte Vista Village. We highly recommend Monte Vista Village for Senior living.

My mother needed the care of an assisted living community and we toured a lot before choosing Pacifica. Pacificia seemed to have everything we needed for my mom at a price she could afford. The staff are great!!! Friendly, warm and they go out of their way to make my mom and our family feel comfortable.

I toured this community when I was looking into options for my loved one. I have had some experience with the place in the past, it was the facility my mother-in-law stayed at. It's a very nice community, they keep it looking well kept and clean and the staff are all very friendly. We didn't end up selecting this community this time around, I wanted something located a bit closer to me, and we wanted something smaller and more homey.

Overall they do a great job here. The staff have all been very kind and patient, and they are always available to answer questions or address any issues that come up. The only issue I've had with them is a bit of confusing regarding how arranging transportation and doctors appointments worked, but we got that cleared up quickly. They've been great about taking requests from residents. For example, Dad asked them if they could start up some activities more based around men, since the community is mostly women, and they were happy to oblige.

I'm very happy right now. They have have been very helpful. They are extremely receptive to you. They are so good, they really are. I love the clients and the smallness of it. I really love the friendliness of the staff, you don't feel like you're an outsider. My only complaint is that the food isn't that appealing to me, and even then I would still give them a 3.5 or a 4 on that.

It's a wonderful facility. The food is good. The maintenance guy is right there to help. The mail system sometime gets mixed up, if they could sort the mail better that would be the only thing I can think of that could be done better. It's phenomenal!

My mother has now been at Vista Village for 12 months, Anyone reading this would know this is the most stressful time in a person's life. Finding peace of mind in a place to send a parent, along with the financial stress of being able to afford it almost pushed me to the end. I live in Carlsbad and looked at every place within 10 miles, and I do mean every place!!!I O toured ever place in North County over a 4 month period. It was a very tasking job but one that I had to do. Vista Village by far provided the best services at the best price. I visit my mother who has advanced Alzheimer's 5 days a week. I show up at all hours of the day and night. I have found their staff and care of my mother to be second to none. I have never felt like a number and always feel like everyone there really cares for her in a very personal deep way. The care they show sometimes almost leaves me in tears. Andre is the supervisor of the memory care unit and I challenge you to find anyone more devoted and caring for your parent than Andre. His devotion goes well beyond what any job would ever require. The Director in charge of Vista Village Charlie, probably knows more about this disease than any PHD or Dr you could ever meet. I recently referred a dear friend of mine to Vista Village for his mother and he came back saying " that Charlie is smarter than Einstein when it comes to his knowledge regarding care for seniors" I strongly encourage anyone considering Vista Village to ask to spend 5 minutes with Charlie and your search will be over forever. I can only give Vista Village the highest praise for the care, consideration and concern. I once again sleep at night knowing that my mother lives in the best possible condition. I am thankful every day I visit, that I found Vista Village and have entrusted them with the care of my most precious mother. You will find every single member of their staff will always go the extra yard to provide care above and beyond expectations. Special Praise to Ruby and Merrisa over in memory care for their outstanding treatment of my mother . There is simply not enough space on here to praise all the people at Vista Village and the care they provide 365 days a year without fail or excuse. I thank Vista Village from the bottom of my heart for all they do on a daily basis to allow me to sleep again at night

Greetings, First and foremost, my senior advisor at A Place for Mom was incredible! We had never had to look for this and she made it so much better. My uncle has no one but us and he is thrilled and engaged at Wyndham Lakes. I wrote a letter to the Executive Director at Wyndham Lakes only 5 days after my uncle moved in. The sales person was and remains incredible and the staff in general. We are so pleased and truly believe this will be great for him.

For the short time I have been living there, I find the staff very caring, they tend to your every need. I a am glad that I choose Atria Meridian .

Visited in January - Very nice facility, with an interesting layout. Traci was very knowledgeable and helpful. Up to speed on Dementia requirements. All things considered, my #2 at this time.

My mother has now been at Pacifica for 2 months and we love it! My brother is moving up to New Jersey and discussed moving my mother. Yet upon checking similar living facilities as Pacifica in New Jersey I found that nothing even came close to Pacifica. Pacifica has their dementia unit segregated into three sections, beginning, intermediate, and advanced. Each section houses a maximum of fourteen residents housed in ground level cottages catered by 2 full time 24 X 7 care takers all enclosed in a secure compound. Residents have the capability of strolling from one cottage to another within the floral/treed compound. Pacificia actively keeps their residents involved with various events helping to stimulate their mental capabilities.

Because she has Alzheimer's and COPD and chronic bronchitis and chronic phuemonia, I needed a facility to accommodate those needs, so that as she progressed with the Alzheimer's I wouldn't have to look for a whole new facility to accommodate her needs. Emeritus allowed her to move within the same facility to make life a little easier. That is really the reason why I picked them. There are very few facilities that have different stages for people who have Alzheimer's. Also, they have a rehab facility so my mother has been able to do rehab right on the premises. She seems to be happy on the days that I speak to her, but there's little things that I feel that they lack on. When trying to get the Veteran's Benefits processed, I had to call them five times before they finally mailed it. That was a little bit too much, but eventually they got it done and they did apologize. The other issue that I have is that the screen is ripped in her room, and they have been saying since August that they would fix it. Opposite of that, any time that my mother is sick, I get a phone call, which is great. If I had to pick between getting a screen fixed or knowing that she is being taken care of, I am glad to know that she is being well taken care of. It is a large facility, they have about 150 patients. At Emeritus the patients wear on their wrist an alarm or a button so that people can come and see what the problem is. All the residents have one. There is also one in the bathroom. She had an incident where she got very short of breath making her bed, and when she realized that she was in distress, no one was coming. I know that when you are distressed like that, a couple of seconds feels like hours, so I really don't know how long it was. I was annoyed initially. I left a message for the director asking if there is a problem with her alert button, and she didn't call me back to say that they have replaced it. Being that this is the first time that anyone of my generation has had to put a parent into a facility, this is all new to us. I don't know if this is normal or if it's what is supposed to be going on. There are a couple difference that I noticed from the facilities that I visited on Long Island, for example, it's $3000 for level one care in assisted living, which is considerably cheaper. They allow pets. It also seems like there are a lot more people in scooters, and I have no idea why that it. What matters is that my mom is happy there, and I think that she is.

I don't have any experience with other places but I think it's a really good value. The care has been good. I think that there were some hiccoughs, understandably. When my mom first got there, there was some confusion but that all taken care of quickly. There's lots of activities and they are just right for my mom. I am very pleased with their level of activities and just with how my mom has really done well there so I would recommended that place to anyone. When I got a tour of their memory care unit I thought it was very beautiful. I knew that eventually she would need to go into memory care so that was a big factor in my decision.

This was a senior apartment situation where my mother had help that was hired in. It was really a nice place. She had a beautiful room with balcony and the food was really good. Everything was really nice there except it's just a senior living place and my mother's care got to be too much. They offered meals and an agency that they started themselves to provide care for people there but it's just limited service. There is no round the clock staffing for people that need more care or attention. The people there were great.

It is a great community. Our loved one is very happy here. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It really is just a great community and is a good fit for our loved one. We would recommend this community to anyone.
