Did a 3 week stint here, was transferred after spending a week at Sierra Vista. I was going through…read morecancer treatment, and was trying to do everything on my own*: I was living alone, driving myself to appointments, doing all my grocery shopping and errands, etc. As the chemo built up in my system and I lost my appetite and sense of taste, I kinda stopped eating, which caused one of my daily prescription meds to build up to a toxic level. My body and brain shut down, and a welfare check called in by family got there just in the nick of time! Everyone at Mission View was so wonderful to me. Very special and caring folks. I took advantage of every therapy offered to me: physical, occupational, speech, and cognitive. When I was admitted I couldn't walk unaided and didn't know what year it was, but when I was discharged I was almost back to normal which I think surprised everyone! The food is fine. Eat as much as you can if you want to be released, you need the strength. It's a rehab facility, not a restaurant! Treat the staff with kindness and respect, and you'll get the same in return. They work so hard! I had a total meltdown one day where I was crying a lot and not working very hard in my sessions, and my therapists were so kind and gentle with me. My PT Tim let me sit alone in the courtyard with a cup of coffee for a while after our session, and my OT Stacy offered me a shower instead of working on more challenging activities. Nurse Rubi hugged me and assured me I'd be going home soon, because my brain was still foggy and I told her I feared I'd never get to leave lol. I could go on and and on, but in summary - if you're going there for a relatively short time to get strong again after an accident, incident, or surgery - follow the rules, respect the staff, eat the food, don't skip any of your therapies, and I can almost guarantee you'll have a good experience. It'll be tough some days, especially if you're used to living alone like I am, but you'll get through it. Stay positive! (*I'm staying with family now while I finish treatment, they're taking me to my appointments and making sure I'm eating well, so I likely won't end up in rehab again. I might stop by to say hello to everyone who helped me though!)

I have only good things to say about Mountain View. My 92 year old aunt was transferred here from…read moreanother rehab facility. It's an older facility, but the care and staff there more than make up for that. We found all the nurses and support staff to be excellent. They were all very attentive to my aunt, and did not hesitate to order testing to make sure that she was recuperating well. Her wound care nurse, Amanda, was excellent and kept me well informed of her progress. The social worker, Janice, was very helpful and made the whole process easier. My aunt's only criticism was regarding the housekeeping staff, it sometimes took hours to get their bathroom cleaned up (one bathroom is shared by 4 patients). I was very pleased with my aunt's care here & wouldn't hesitate to use this facility again.

We were very impressed at the amount of care and compassion the Ingleside staff gave my mom. When we moved mom from a larger facility in San Luis Obispo where she wasn't getting the amount of care she needed, Ingleside sent a wheel chair assessable van to pick mom up and even sent along their nurse to ride along with her. My mom recently passed and we were so glad we moved her to Ingleside Park. They took great care of her all the way to the end and we were able to visit her any time, day or night.

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.

I would not recommend this memory care unit for anyone! We placed our mom there with the…read moreunderstanding that they would have a staff ratio of 2 to 14 residents. This was not true... One person was on duty in memory care and when they needed assistance they would call someone over from Assisted Living. Our Mom was left in bed until 10:30 am with no breakfast when we came on a Sunday for a visit. On another occasion she sitting in a diaper soiled with excrement until we them for her to be changed. 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 mother broke her hip and was sent to San Luis Transitional Care . The staff was filled with…read morethe kindest and most caring people. From the nurses and occupational therapists to the physical therapists, aides, and custodial staff...everyone was so friendly and positive. When she arrived she was limited to lying in bed and using a bed pan. The OT and PT did not let that stop them. From the first day their goal was getting her back to her life at home. They were supportive, encouraging, and pushed just enough to keep her progress always moving forward without pushing her too hard or making her feel discouraged. The facility is clean (due to the constant diligent work of the custodial staff) and truly feels more like a home than a hospital. My mother was able to sit out in the "Living Area" and interact with other residents and nurses. Every room has a window and exterior door with natural light and a view of the outside. This was important for my mom. The food was good and residents have an option from a daily menu so they can make choices for themselves of what they can eat. The Physical Therapy room was well equipped and large enough to accommodate multiple people. After my mom's hip surgery I was so worried about leaving her in an unknown facility with strangers and nothing but time to kill while her hip healed. After the first few days she was so upbeat when I visited and had nothing but positive reviews of all of the nurses and staff that I felt so thankful and appreciative of these amazing human beings who were caring for my mom. A few shout-outs to Raquel, Nellie, Cree, Vonique, Laura (PT), Louise (OT), and others whose names I can't recall but their care of my mom was no less! I cannot say enough great things about San Luis Transitional Care. There is not a thing I can criticize. Every person who dealt with my mom the last 8 weeks is an angel in my book. Thank you to Compass Health for hiring such professionals who truly care for their residents.

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!
