I was not mistaken, and I'm grateful in so many ways. The leadership staff and caregivers are responsive, ever ready to answer my questions, and they CARE. Silverado's homey atmosphere, activities and field trips for the residents, meals in a beautiful dining room with family and friends welcome to dine with the residents, nursing staff to monitor and distribute medications... I could go on and on. There is a reason that they are lauded as the best in the memory care industry. Thank you, Silverado!

I searched for an Independent/Assisted living home for my mother who was moving here from out of…read morestate. I knew I had found the place for her after touring the facility and meeting with Kitty, the Community Relations Director, and Randal, the Executive Director. This is a fairly new building (just a couple of years old) and it has a lot of light and lovely artwork in all of the hallways, where music is often playing. There's a fireplace and grand piano in the spacious entry room (it's so much more than a lobby)! The apartments, (studios, and, 1 and 2 bedrooms) are good sizes and have high ceilings, kitchens, full-sized washers and dryers. The apartments and bathrooms also work with wheelchairs so your loved one can "age-in-place" if necessary. The Westmont of Encinitas staff and residents are friendly and kind. My mother has now been there for about a month and is happy there. My sister and I are relieved to have her in a place that is designed for assisting her as her needs increase and also for her to be in a place where she is safe and can make friends. The social element here is up to the resident to a certain extent. There are activities and outings, as well as dining, for social opportunities. Also in the building, there is a small indoor (very warm) pool, a courtyard, a movie room with large, comfy seats, a dining area, a recreation room for activities. There is also on-site physical and occupational therapy. When first working with Kitty on selecting an apartment, filling out forms, sending forms for others (ie: doctors) to fill out, I was overwhelmed. Kitty was so patient, kind, and accessible. She worked with me and my out-of-state mother and was always reachable or would get back to me within 24-hours. She also could always answer my questions... of which I had many! I've also noticed (and heard from my mom) that Randal, Anisa, Christine, and of course Kitty, will go to the lengths necessary for their residents to be happy and feel that they are HOME. They are all enthusiastic and ready to help with any issue big or small. It truly is impressive. I feel very fortunate to have found Westmont of Encinitas for my mom!

We were hopeful it would be a good fit and after almost a month, Westmont surprised us by exceeding our expectations. The health and resident providers are caring and incredible. Concerns are addressed immediately. Donelle the executive director,and the entire Westmont team- especially Stephanie -have provided the highest level of customer service to both the resident and their families. So far, Mom says the dining room produces tasty and nutritious meals. The dining staff tries hard to please. The common areas are lovely and always clean. The hallways smell great and fresh on our regular visits. However, the best part for our mom is the combination and superior quality of the resident activities. This combined with the Westmont community have made a tremendous difference in keeping Mom engaged and busy. We didn't realize how much mom needed this aspect. Living here seems to have cured her loneliness that had crept in the past year and that she tried to hide from us. She continues to be very involved with her family, but now she has the much needed social connections without the increasingly strenuous effort it took on her part when she lived alone. Live music, field trips, holiday celebrations, current events -wow! Lots going on...Every. Single. Day. Fellow residents have welcomed her and the staff encourages interactions. When she tires, mom retreats to her very well-appointed apartment. It's remarkable to us how quickly Mom began thriving here. The impressive Westmont team have been the answer to our prayers after a very trying time spent in the hospital and skilled nursing. Our family is extremely grateful.

All…read morethe activities provided from the vast number of outdoor concerts in the patio and piano concerts in the recreation room to water coloring and flower arranging under the lanai, the RanchView staff is engaging and attentive. As my mom has transitioned to hospice care the staff has been amazingly, dedicated and observant of her needs. Throughout our lifetime, our family has owned five senior citizen, retirement centers, and I know how much it takes to run a center such as RanchView. I highly recommend RanchView and all the staff to anyone considering placement for their parent. My decision to move to RanchView was slow and deliberate. My mom had been in home support care living at home for 10 years. I only chose RanchView after a long and dedicated search. My decision was wonderful and I can't recommend RanchView enough. RanchView staff is like family and the facility is our home. When I bring family members with me to visit mom, staff remembers them and also offers to help them to make their visit with mom more comfortable, such as sharing snacks or meals, or providing any type of comfort or conversation that makes their visit to my mom more enjoyable. RanchView stands out as going above and beyond every day.

When a loved one is in a home, holidays in general are difficult, Thanksgiving in particular, may be the most difficult for our family. Kathleen established terrific traditions, hosting 10-20 friends or family and baking 8-10 pies making our 6 grandchildren feel special. This year Ranch View celebrated Thanksgiving one week early and we invited our best friends who attended and made the day even more special. For the second year in a row our family wanted to bring Thanksgiving to Kathleen at Ranch View on Thanksgiving day. Maria and staff set up a table and 10 chairs in a private room for our family Thanksgiving and it was a huge success. Nothing will ever replace our home holidays but in my opinion Ranch View has made the extra effort so Kathleen and our family feel like we have a home away from home. Thank you Maria and staff

Looking back, our family could not be more grateful for the care, compassion, and community they experienced. What sets Belmont apart is that it feels like a home, not a facility. From the front desk staff to the restaurant team, caregivers, nurses, and leadership, there is a genuine sense of warmth, joy, and respect that extends to residents and their families. My father often told us how grateful he was to live there and always referred to Belmont as "home." The staff truly knew and cared about my parents as individuals. Whether it was remembering my dad's favorite meals, supporting his faith, keeping him engaged through activities and Circle of Friends, or providing comfort and dignity during the final chapter of his life, their kindness was evident every day. Our father lived nearly five years after losing our mother and continued to enjoy a rich, meaningful life because of the exceptional care and community Belmont provided. Knowing he was safe, valued, and genuinely cared for brought our family tremendous peace. Entrusting your parents' care to others is one of life's hardest decisions. Belmont Village Cardiff exceeded every expectation. We will always be grateful for the love, dignity, and support they gave our parents and our family.

Throughout this time, our experience has consistently been positive. From the moment I began working with their team, the staff at Glenbrook has demonstrated exceptional professionalism, compassion, and a genuine commitment to providing high-quality care. The nurses and caregivers are attentive, patient, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure each resident's comfort and dignity. The facility itself is clean, well-maintained, and offers a warm, welcoming environment. Communication is another standout strength which provides great peace of mind for both families and care partners. In my role, I've also had the opportunity to collaborate closely with their team during residents' transitions back home with caregiving support. Their coordination during these transitions is outstanding, ensuring that residents and their families feel fully prepared and supported every step of the way. All of the families we've assisted following discharge from Glenbrook Health Center consistently share positive feedback about their experience, which further reflects the quality of care provided. What truly sets Glenbrook apart is their personalized approach to care. It's clear that the team takes the time to understand each resident's unique needs and works diligently to create a respectful and supportive environment.
