A little background. My mother's condition has been…read moredeteriorating both physically and mentally over the last 14 months. She's gone from hospital to nursing home, back to hospital, back to nursing home and then finally to an assisted living down in Vista. It was a very nice facility very clean, and pretty accommodating but I guess my mother is not the easiest person to deal with on a daily basis. So not long after her stay began we started getting phone calls that your mother's doing this, she's doing that and that her care level is going to go up as well as our fees.Within 3 months our cost had nearly doubled due to us being nickel and dimed for every little thing. So we decided a change was necessary and we also wanted to get her closer to other family members closer to Long Beach / Los Angeles. We did have another option of a board and Care place down in Oceanside but the trips to visit meant an entire day was taken up just by the travel back and forth. We decided to take a shot and we checked out Vista del Mar. I'm thinking we made the right decision. Though it took a while for my mother to accept the move to a different style place with a little looser atmosphere and kind of less stuffy attitude. From the people we first dealt with mainly Jessica and Rebecca down to the caregivers, housekeepers and maintenance, everything that is ever brought to their attention is promptly dealt with. I'm not saying there's too many things to deal with just saying that I think I am there more than a lot of visitors and from what I see everyone is pretty much on top of things over there. As I said before my mother is not an easy person to deal with but they seem to think she's a pleasure Anyhow since she has been there she now is able to fit into her slippers and shoes which she was unable to do at the prior facility due to her feet and ankles being excessively swollen and she wasn't very Mobile on her own at that point. Now there's times I show up and she walks around her room and she even walks herself to the dining area and she's wearing her shoes because obviously her medications are being given to her on a timely basis like I'm assuming maybe they were not before at the other facility. I'm very grateful for the care that she has receiving here and I really don't have anything negative to say about the place. Add in the fact that the aforementioned people Jessica and Rebecca and some others have volunteered assistance in possibly getting us to a more affordable level through programs because even though their rates are better than most it's still difficult for us people that are on a certain budget. That just added to the attraction of trying this place out and I'm glad that we did. It also doesn't hurt that my dog and best friend Conrad has become like a mascot of the place and spends every visit visiting with a lot of the other residents every time we are out there. All in all I don't even feel like I'm going to a facility when I show up over there it's just more like somewhere where my mother lives.

They do not have adequate staffing (2 caregivers per 35 residents "who need care") and relied regularly on agency caregivers (who didn't seem to have adequate training in caring for residents with dementia) even before COVID. It seemed like my parent's care plan was not being followed and I imagine it was because there were not enough staff members to do so. Some staff are wonderful and really care about the residents but others are mediocre at best. If your loved one has dementia, even if it is mild, look for a place with maximum 6 residents per caregiver that conduct dementia-specific training of their caregivers and do not regularly rely on agency caregivers.

Having spent my entire career as a law enforcement officer specializing as an elder abuse…read moredetective, I was EXTREMELY selective when choosing where my mom would live as her dementia began to worsen. Choosing an assisted living or a memory care community for a loved one requires careful consideration, so when looking for an exceptional facility, I took many things into consideration, and Crofton Manor checked EVERY box! The key aspects that stand out for me at Crofton Manor are: 1. Longevity and attentiveness of staff: A community with staff who have been there for a long time often indicates strong management and a stable, experienced care team. This is true at Crofton Manor. Everyone from the administrative team (Administrator (Amalia), Marketing/LVN (Claudia), on-site Social worker (Cheryl) and all the caregivers, facilities employees, and kitchen staff (and everyone in between)... are all amazing, professional, and have worked here for many years. The consistency of care provided by familiar faces is incredibly comforting and speaks volumes about the community's management and work environment. There is very low turnover in staff, and they are genuinely friendly and approachable. Their attentiveness to the residents' needs and well-being is beyond reproach! The staff makes a genuine effort to engage with residents, learning their preferences and ensuring their needs are met promptly and with dignity. This personalized approach is a major differentiating factor. 2. Safety protocols: This facility has robust safety measures which is paramount in a care setting. This includes secure environments, clear emergency procedures and safety protocols. The community maintains a secure environment without feeling restrictive, and I have complete peace of mind knowing my mother is safe. 3. Cleanliness: Crofton has a consistently clean and well-maintained facility. The health and comfort of the residents is clearly a priority to management and staff. I have never once noticed any foul odor in the facility, and my mother has lived here for almost two years. My siblings and I visit unannounced (at different times/days) at least 3 days per week, and our mom is always groomed, well-dressed and happy. 4. Phenomenal nursing staff: The nurses at Crofton Manor are extraordinary and highly skilled. They are compassionate and responsive, and they manage my mother's healthcare needs efficiently; always communicating with me proactively about any changes or concerns; often being contacted by a nurse for even the smallest of concerns. They do not take the care of their residents lightly, and have never once taken a "shortcut" when it comes to healthcare concerns. They are extremely competent, which is vital for providing appropriate medical care and responding to health needs. 5. Social worker support: Having a dedicated social worker on staff is incredibly beneficial (Cheryl is a rockstar and truly cares!). She has assisted us with navigating resources, providing emotional support to our family, and helped us with the adjustments of community living. Her expertise has made the transition smoother and less stressful. 6. Friendly atmosphere: We are always met with welcoming and friendly staff members. I have never walked into the facility to see folks simply sitting around in wheelchairs unattended. There are always activities for the residents to be involved in, and the place is decorated for EVERY holiday, bringing a special warmth to Crofton Manor. The environment created by both staff and residents contributes significantly to a positive environment. In summary, the qualities I have pointed out above (along with many others) assisted us in choosing Crofton Manor as a safe, supportive, and caring environment for our mom. We have found an exceptional assisted living/memory care community for her at Crofton Manor, which was a decision I made with great scrutiny. The facility has exceeded my high standards, providing an environment that I trust implicitly. I highly recommend Crofton Manor to anyone seeking top-tier care for their loved ones.

I recently took an evening tour of this facility, and what I witnessed was heartbreaking and deeply…read moreconcerning. I would strongly advise anyone considering this place for a loved one to look elsewhere. The Memory Care/Locked Unit: The "care" in the locked unit was non-existent. The staff--mostly teenagers--were huddled together on their phones, completely ignoring the residents. The smell of soiled clothing was overwhelming, suggesting residents are left for long periods without changes. Even more alarming, I saw residents with scaly skin, bruising, and marks on their arms that looked like they had been roughly handled or restrained against their will. One gentleman was in the hallway crying to go home, and no one even looked up from their screens to comfort him. Professional Misconduct: When I asked for a floor supervisor to address the lack of staff in the assisted living area, a woman eventually appeared from a storage closet with a male, adjusting her clothes in a very unprofessional manner. It turned out she was the supervisor for the unit. The lack of supervision and basic professional ethics is appalling. Management: The Executive Director comes across as very "fake." Based on my visit, it seems management is focused on appearances and salary rather than the actual safety and dignity of the seniors living there. They are permitting an environment where neglect is the standard. This is not a safe environment for the elderly. I am in the process of reporting my observations to the proper authorities (Social Services and the Ombudsman) because no one should have to live in these conditions.
