The staff here have genuine heart. They are kind, attentive, and consistently go above and beyond for their residents. Our loved one resides in memory care, and while this stage of life can be emotional, the Claremont Place team has made the journey feel lighter. The caregivers, Med Techs, administrative staff, dining staff, maintenance, laundry, and everyone in between are intuitive, patient, and treat residents with the dignity and warmth you hope for when you entrust someone you love to another persons care. Management is honest, respectful, and responsive. Any concern is met with clear communication and prompt follow through, and their experience working with older adults is evident in the way they anticipate needs before they become issues. It feels like a true partnership. They also bring joy to daily life. Holidays and celebrations are handled with thoughtful intention, and the food and activities create a sense of home and community. We visit often, but it brings real peace knowing we do not have to. Our loved one is in very good hands. We are genuinely grateful for the team at Claremont Place and the care they continue to provide.

My mom moved into assisted living at Claremont Place about two and a half months ago. She has her…read moreown room, kitchenette, and bathroom and two closets. In her room, she has a single bed, a large recliner, a dresser, two large chairs and a small desk for her computer with a chair. She has a nice big window with a view of the garden that she can see from her chair. With all this in the room, she still has lots of space to maneuver her walker safely and get to the window and her air handler to make herself comfortable. The food is very good. We eat there often with my mom. Most of the servers make an effort to remember my mom's preferences and they bring her what she wants before she even asks. Staff is attentive, concerned and proactive. The front desk is a hub for all information and if they don't know the answer, they follow up. I will post more updates in the months to come. Overall we made the right choice.

I never talked to a live admissions representative. I left NUMEROUS messages on the voice mailboxes of Suzanne, Giselle & Katrina. No return phone call, what-so ever! This is unacceptable. What a job. You never have to return telephone calls. If this facility cannot return a phone call, I am suspect of what type of medical care they are giving to their patients. If you do have family there, and have issues, please call the LA County Ombudsman's office at (800) 334-9473. You can also contact the Medical Board of California www.mbc.ca.gov to file a complaint.

Claremont Manor is a special place which has the benefit of providing almost every kind of senior care & housing you could imagine. It is staffed by administrators who are friendly, caring and approachable. They and the auxiliary staff make our stay here happy and enjoyable. So much so that they made us feel more like friends than residents.

In hindsight I'm glad that my family and I made the difficult decision to place her when we did and before she was in the later stages of ALZ. i will be eternally grateful to Oak Park Manor and their staff. It takes a special kind of person to do that for a living, day in and day out. The atmosphere at Oak Park is very much like a home setting making the transition easier for both the patient and the family members of the patient. Toward the end stages of the disease my mom was wearing other patients clothes, needed assistance with using the restroom which meant she sometimes soiled herself. She eventually stopped eating and speaking. Not because of anything Oak Park did or didnt do, it was due to the progression of the horrible disease eating away at her brain loosing the ability to function normally. One of the reasons that we selected Oak Park Manor it was listed on the dept of health website as an approved facility who accepts the assisted living waiver program. The program provides financial assistance to those who qualify. For more information, https://www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/ltc/Pages/AssistedLivingWaiver.aspx Before my mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer's I knew very little about the disease and it complexities let alone the morality rate. For more information on Alzheimer's and the 7 stages of it. https://www.alz.org/alzheimers-dementia/stages If there was anything that I learned from her experience was to share what I've learned with others who were up against making the decision to place their loved one in a facility like Oak Park. If I had to do it over again I would make the same decision.

Another wonderful plus is that the Gardens is a pet friendly community! It is certainly one of the friendliest, loveliest, all-inclusive retirement communities I have visited and they truly deserve their top ratings.

I searched and visited many facilities prior to me choosing Mountain View Center. I visited them a couple times and was able to meet the Owner, Coordinators, the caretakers, the cook, all the helpers I just knew that they stood out far beyond any others I went to. First thing that stood out was how immaculate everything was and it smelled so fresh and clean. This was very important for me if my mom going to live here. They gave me a tour of facility and the living quarters where my mom would stay. She has her own bedroom whom she shares with a wonderful roommate. They were very careful about matching mom's roommate, so they carefully introduced my mom to a few ladies and we found the perfect one. My mom has been her for 3 years and she loves it. They even have a program where a bus picks up the residents that are able, to have fun filled days dancing, singing, doing crafts, then the bus brings them back. They are very involved with many onsite activities. They have lots of parties, holiday parties too, they bring in musicians/bands so they can dance and enjoy, bbqs, dress up..etc. I just had to share my experience with anyone looking for a place for mom or dad. Dementia again has impacted our family, my dear Auntie is suffering with this horrible disease now. I'm so grateful for Mountain View because I know my mom is, safe, well fed, well taken care of with bathing, clean clothes, clean room and bed. Thank you Mountain View

First and foremost I'd like to state that I was the former activities coordinator for this facility…read moreand loved my job ! I am not a disgruntled employee and won't be discredited by the owner of this facility. 1) This facility is an absolute death trap. You do not send your family member here to live and thrive you send them here to suffer andie. This facilities owner only cares about the financial bottom line and does not provide the care promised when you drop off your loved one 2) residents are routinely neglected and their personal hygiene is non existent ! They are not groomed daily, have their teeth brushed daily or bathed daily. Although they claim they are ! 3) the staff here has a true heart for the residents. They truly try to give the best care to them but when the owner and management does NOT provide the appropriate tools and necessities needed to provide the care expected even the best intentions fall short. 4) the building is old, dirty and unkempt. Mold, feces, bed bugs and trash riddles the floors of this facility. 5) the management and owner keep the truth from both authorities and families here. They give the run around for any question you might have of your loved ones and of any reports of negligence, abuse or violence in the facility. For further questions please refer to the police report files with the la county sheriffs department.
