On the other hand, reading a good book and enjoying a favorite beverage are other relaxing choices.The surrounding grounds are a pleasure to walk. Here, you can do as much or as little as you wish. We have lovely courtyard, where willing residents enjoy contributing time and talents in planters they have "adopted". Of course, I would rather be home-- but realistically, I realized it was time to get more help and stop my loved ones from their concerns about me. All and all, the life here is a great choice.

One person was on duty in memory care and when they needed assistance they would call someone over from Assisted Living.

I wonder how long they would have continued to let her sit in that state had we not come by to visit. We spoke with administration and they were useless, claiming to be fully staffed. It was an absolute nightmare for our family. It took 33 days living at Creston Village Memory Care for my Mom to end up in the hospital with dehydration. Part of having memory issues was that she needed to be reminded to drink and have water available. This was not the case! I would give it less than one star if I had the option.

My wife and I spent months and countless hours trying to resolve our concerns privately before…read morewriting this review. Unfortunately, after repeated requests for documentation and a meaningful resolution, we feel prospective families deserve to know about our experience. We are both Successor Co-Trustees for a twice widowed friend of nearly 30 years who was a resident at The Oaks at Paso Robles for just over a year. During that time the California Department of Social Services substantiated two of our complaints involving their care. One citation involved the facility charging for services that were not being provided over an extended period of months and another involved a medication error in which a medication technician mistakenly administered another resident's OxyContin to our dear friend. Both findings are documented and substantiated in the California Department of Social Services public licensing records here, Citation #29-AS-202260407133349: https://www.ccld.dss.ca.gov/transparencyapi/api/FacilityReports?facNum=405850480&inx=27 After he was transferred to another assisted living facility, the admitting staff and ombudsman documented that he arrived with an active infestation of lice and other insects requiring immediate treatment and multiple treatments after that were humiliating yet necessary. That was devastating for us to witness. Following his transfer, The Oaks at Paso Robles acknowledged that it had not consistently provided the agreed level of care for several months and proposed a partial refund. However, despite multiple written requests for an itemized explanation supporting its refund calculations, these were only partially provided and not detailed enough to justify their partial refund. We were left unable to determine how care fees were calculated or which services the facility believed had or had not been provided. As of the date of this review, the California Department of Social Services public licensing record reflects seven Type A citations and twelve Type B citations for this facility. https://www.ccld.dss.ca.gov/carefacilitysearch/FacDetail/405850480 Under California's enforcement system, Type A citations are issued when a violation presents an imminent danger to residents or has caused substantial probability of death or serious physical harm. Type B citations are issued for violations that have a direct or immediate relationship to the health, safety, or security of residents but are not classified as Type A. We encourage every family considering The Oaks at Paso Robles to review the state's public licensing records directly before making a decision. We recognize that many caregivers work hard under difficult circumstances, and every family's experience may be different. However, based on our family's documented experience, we cannot recommend The Oaks at Paso Robles or their other communities without first carefully reviewing their state licensing history, asking detailed questions about staffing and care documentation, and understanding exactly what services are included in monthly care fees.

If your loved one is able to live independently this would be a good place. For a senior who needs assistance, I would not recommend. Though there are some lovely staff, the turnover is very high, and very hard to get to know who is caring for your loved one.

We were very impressed at the amount of care and compassion the Ingleside staff gave my mom.

Having worked in and visited many senior care facilities, I had seen the wide spectrum of options available for my grandmother. I always tell people that The Yellow Rose Inn is the kind of place you WISH all elders had access to. Here, they are treated like family, in a ranch-style home where they have their own belongings around them and have access to a beautiful outdoor setting. They are able to live with dignity and grace under the watchful eyes of incredible nursing staff. It takes a very special person to be a caregiver to the elderly. What makes the Yellow Rose Inn so unique is the combination of highly skilled and compassionate nurses and staff who make it a true home. I can't say enough good things about them. I hope more facilities like this become available to our elders. The Yellow Rose Inn is a model for such places to follow. Thank you Iris and Chelsey, for all you do!

Casa de Flores, Morro Bay My mother-in-law (MIL) recognized…read morethat she needed to relocate to an assisted living facility when living at home was no longer an option, albeit previously with family members acting as caregivers. As my MIL had previously been in Bayside to recover after a serious fall, we were acquainted with Casa de Flores. Therefore, tours were scheduled, and a room selected. NOTE: plan to process a volume of forms/paperwork for admittance, prior to moving day. Expect to schedule visits with the MD(s) for requisite exams and signature on some of the forms. KEEP COPIES OF ALL PAPERWORK. After over a year, what we have found with Casa de Flores, Morro Bay: · Cleanliness! Always CLEAN! Never have we detected unpleasant smells. · Staff who care! We have found staff (in all capacities) to be friendly, helpful, interactive with the residents, willing to work with you (the family of the resident). · Facilities - Well designed, beautifully decorated, and welcoming. · On site PA, when needed who communicates in a timely fashion. · Meals - dining rooms with well-planned menus, or in-room service. · Expense - 'affordable' considering the breadth of services provided. · Care of the residents with respect to COVID 19 protocols. Loved ones have been kept safe and healthy; staff have taken every step per state and federal mandates and recommendations while accommodating family to the best of the limitations. · Communication - Timely! emails, website, Facebook, and especially face-to-face.

This is a very lovely place! I'm from San Diego and my older sister is from Lakewood. We came up…read moreto Paso Robles to visit family and more importantly, visit our almost 84 yr old sister. It was a very hard decision for my niece and her husband to make the decision to move our sister into a facility, but after visiting there today, I realize that they made the absolute best decision for our oldest sister. The care is absolutely wonderful! It's a lovely home and when you walk in you don't smell anything negative, like urine. The area that it is in we saw a deer and her two fauns. I can imagine how beautiful it is in the spring with the grass all green. It has a lovely swimming pool of course our sister never used it. A lovely shaded patio area for family visits. We could tell the other residence of this home were being very well taken care of and seemed to be very happy there. I am so glad my niece and her husband chose this home for our sister. I can't remember the owner's name, but she was so attentive to our sister and the other residents. I don't think you could find a better place for a beloved family member who is not able to live alone. We are so grateful for the care that they're giving our sister.
