Where to start......My mother in law has been living at AvantGarde for 2 weeks - she has Dementia…read more(short term memory issues) and it was getting to the point where she needed not only care but stimulation. The staff here is amazing, they don't just do their jobs (and they do them well) they are all very kind, supportive and loving toward her. This is a woman who would not leave her apartment, slept until noon, getting her to get dressed was a big task but her nature is social. She was famous in her youth and a singer / dancer. I could not believe that she was up and out of her room (DRESSED) by 8am and didn't return until after 5PM on day 2. EVERY SINGLE DAY she is kept active, she's singing with the pianist, playing bingo, watching movies, doing arts and crafts AND they told me she was participating in the morning walk! One of the ladies there sent me a video of her singing with the pianist today - she is in her element. Her Doctor comes to her every month (more if she needed him). I was weary that they would not be able to get her out of her room and get her dressed. AvantGarde has surpassed my expectations. I can travel without worry, I can visit her without me being the caretaker, I can rest easy knowing she is having a great time and in loving, capable hands.

PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS FACILITY!!!…read more I work near this facility and personally know several seniors who live here. Based on direct knowledge and firsthand accounts, I have serious concerns about how residents are being treated. One resident I know personally was not properly cared for after a fall. After that incident, she was reportedly not assisted with meals or monitored to ensure she ate for three days. Her room has flooded twice, and because of how often this happens, it reportedly smells of mold, which raises serious health concerns. After the second flood, she was abruptly dismissed from her room so it could be cleaned and was not allowed to gather her phone, shoes, or any personal belongings. She was sent out in the middle of December wearing only sandals and no sweater. This showed a complete lack of concern for her safety, comfort, or dignity. What is most disturbing is the lack of empathy. This is a facility entrusted with the care of vulnerable seniors, yet the focus appears to be convenience and profit rather than basic human compassion. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS FACILITY!!!! Please choose another place. No one's loved one deserves to be treated this way.

One of my clients currently resides there, so I have an intimate knowledge of the operations at the facility. My client, who has Alzheimer's is happy, healthy and well cared for. The home is beautifully appointed, large and homey. In addition to that, you will not meet a more caring and competent staff. Daniel, the owner, takes pride in personally knowing about both the resident and their family to personalize their stay. The staff is on top of all medical and psycho-social needs and alerts me with any type of change in condition. Placing a loved one in an assisted living facility is a very hard thing to do. Elegant Senior Living is as close to being at home, as you can get. Go take a look and see for yourself. You will not be disappointed.

We toured his Encino home and would have loved to place her there as it is well maintained and caring, but it was full.

Daniel listened to our needs and our vision for her and found the right place for us. He has kept in touch after her move to make sure she is well and we are happy. I highly recommend Daniel and his services. He knows this industry and can guide you during a difficult time.

We moved Mom in just about a year ago and from the moment we toured Jackie's Hideaway until today,…read morewe have been really surprised with just how much we get with our residency. We used a placement service that identified JH for us. We had several tours of other homes that were all in the same Valley area, and all around the same cost. What immediately stood out were the owners and the team on site. All friendly, caring, truly kind people. Andrei, who gave us our tour, was friendly, so knowledgeable and totally honest. He even brought up previous ownership issues the facility had faced and other issues that as a business owner, he had learned through and made specific improvements to address any issues. The care team that is on site is just amazing. They cook all meals in the kitchens right there so you know your family member will be getting home cooked meals that are nutritious and delicious (do NOT visit during meal prep time or you WILL want a plate!) These ladies bring a smile to Mom's face when they engage and I can tell just how much Mom has enjoyed getting to know them. The facility is also lovely. There is ample space with really nicely sized private rooms and bathrooms. The homes are in lovely garden surroundings and I'm pretty sure Jackie's Hideaway has turned my Mom into a bird watcher!!! While touring facilities in searching for a spot, Jackie's Hideaway was the only location that didn't focus on the glitz and window dressing of the facility. At one spot, the owner only focused on how expensive all of the decor was and how my Mom would be surrounded with luxury. I needed my mom to be surrounded by care and people who were going to be there to help her and not let her worry for a single thing. My mom chooses to hang in her room, but other residents are usually in the TV room or enjoying the garden when it isn't too hot outside. This freedom to do what makes you most happy...as odd as it sounds...is a big plus in these types of facilities. Many spots do what is most convenient for the staff...NOT for the residents. Jackie's Hideaway does not take that route. We are SO thankful we found Jackie's Hideaway and know that their care has lifted anxiety and worry from Mom...and from us. We hope to be a long-term success story!!!

The Community Director Jonathan gave us a tour and was treated by the residents like an adored rock star as we walked through the halls - making introductions with residents, explaining the extensive amenities, along with the robust calendar of daily activities for residents to participate in. We moved her in a week later (after visiting other facilities). Within 2 weeks she told me "I'm meeting so many interesting residents. It's like living in a resort, everything is done for you. I love it here!" Last night I got a text from her saying that she attended a mini classical concert in one of the residents rooms (that resident is known for her musical talents). The staff is attentive, responsive and kind. Prayers answered! I am beyond grateful.

RM Golden Care is located in a quiet, well kept up residential neighborhood with the facility structured like a home environment. It consists of a few private and semi-private rooms, along with a general living area, kitchen and private backyard. I'm extremely grateful to the mother and daughter caregivers, Rosa and Maya, for the loving care and support they have shown my mother in her daily living activities, including letting her voice her meal preferences. From Maya's recommendation, a medical services team consisting of a doctor, nurses, social worker and care coordinator have performed weekly assessments and provided all necessary equipment, supplies and medications. The care coordinator provides me with updates from each visit and assessment, and he is always available and responsive to our questions. My family and I are very content and satisfied that my mother is well cared for at this facility. I highly recommend RM Golden Care, without reservation, for your loved one.
