The biggest take away after having my grandfather here for a month is that he lost every last skill…read morehe had for ADL and got worse than he was when he got there. He got an infection due to neglect, an open pressure sore, his clothes were only changed 3 times in a total of 4 weeks, and he had two showers in a month. I was very clear with them about me doing his laundry to ensure nothing was lost. Even still, they took his laundry and lost his clothes. I visited him every 2-3 days and spent most of my time at the nurse's station harping on them about lack of care and why he had become wheelchair bound after several weeks there when before he got there he was walking. Myself and other family members would find him sleeping bedside on his wheelchair on a regular basis. He couldn't reach his call light from the side of the bed, and he shared they never checked on him. He got an open sore on his tailbone from sitting in his wheelchair 24/7. The photos they posted are fluff; the place is a totally apocalyptic like. Dirty, old and broken, wreaks, and residents all over struggling to get around on their own. Getting parking in the bottom lot or the garage was usually a challenge. The outdoor areas were also filthy and gross. No real place to visit with residents. And sadly, the employees do not care (aside from Bong and Alex). Social services - useless.. she was aware of these issues and agreed that there was a lack of proper care at a level she wouldn't allow for her own self or family member and nothing changed. Even after a meeting with the ombudsman, the neglect continued until I discharged him because I was terrified he would die there. He went to the hospital for SOB and was sent to post-acute to gain cardiovascular strength and improve his ability to move around (in and out of bed, up and down stairs, walking longer distances). He was admitted to this facility relying on only a cane to walk short distances, he left unable to walk AT ALL, even with a walker.

The admin staff, dieticians, physical therapy, speech therapy, social workers, nurses and doctors are all great. My loved one has only been there a little over 3 weeks and is already walking by himself, eating solid foods, talking and gaining his strength back little by little. Its almost a miracle, as the doctors had given him a 2% chance of survival. This place has done wonders for him. I hope everyone has the same experience.

I want to thank NuNu, Dillon, Isaac, Delfina, Grace, Eddie, Pam, for all of their assistance and understanding during my stay. The physical therapy department is excellent. They are all caring, understanding in all of the different ailments from all kinds of different patients. I want to thank Jacalyn, Jim, Claudia, Max and Ranon for all of the therapy and helpful ideas to continue my own therapy at home. The facility is very clean and doesn't have any kind of smell to it. I like the fact that they have ice water available all the time and staff will come around and ask if you would like ice refill and even a water refill. I would recommend this place for injury rehab and for your elderly loved ones.

I dropped them off, name on each piece, including a small blanket. I visit the next day and she's wearing someone else's clothes. Her blanket no where to be found. When I went to pick up her clothes after her passing, they tried to give me a bunch of stuff that wants hers. And I only got back one shirt and 1 pant. Out of 4 tops and 3 pants I had bought her. -The place stinks -Nurses were good while we visited, other than that they didn't help her. -She got mrsa, within a week of her being there. No one noticed it until they had to call 911 to take her to the hospital, almost a week later. -Lost like 15 pounds in those 2 weeks. She wasn't eating and they didn't tried to get her to eat. -I asked all the questions, they "tried" to communicate, asked me different things she liked to eat to get her to eat, or liked to do so she can have some distractions. But nothing went any further than that. -Half of the time I visited I found her soiled. I visited every other day, as I was taking turns with my brother. All of this because we don't have the means for the good places. If your loved one doesn't have a voice, avoid this place. Because they won't take care of them at all. It was the worst experience for all of us. *The people who can speak up for themselves, were ok. This was mid-January 2026

Grossmont Gardens I just can't say enough of GREAT Things…read moreMs. Ana Navarro, ALW Coordinator,Grossmont Gardens Senior Living & Memory Care,Phone: 619-463-0281 Ext. 5104 helped us in so mmany was. Upon first meet Ana was kind, professional, sweet and full of knowledge about the (ALW) Assisted Living Waiver program and about the staff, the entire aspects of the Gardens. My mom had worked there for about 35 years and they welcomed her back as a resident with open arms. Ana always was there to answer questions quick to respond on emails and calls. Working with Ana was a fantastic experience; she was incredibly knowledgeable and efficient". Ana always displayed high-level professionalism and made the entire process stress-free. I highly recommend talking with Ana when considering this property for your loved ones. Ana went above and beyond to solve our issues or concerns I had. I did look at other properties in San Diego and they looked and felt like dorms or prison not to match the price. The Gardens had the lowest price for the best clean rooms and staff, the caregivers are very nice always there when needed. The Gardens felt like Family Ana made us feel like family. My mom is happy and safe. My 2 concerns: 1: with the wait staff and servers most of then were nice and friendly but a handful were always grumpy and just not professional.. They are not quick to see if someone comes in to eat and take there order or even clear the tables so other people can come in and sit. Note: I saw a server not on break in the kitchen area just eating chocolate Ice Cream, I thought Really!!!! 2: They need better activities all day even if only a handful of people are there: Example when they go in trips they should have something going on if you don't go. Maybe different type of activities if you are not a "Religious person" on Sunday. OVER ALL 5++++STAR for Ms Ana above and beyond... I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Calling her take a tour.. Make the Gardens a Forever home for a loved one..

Unfortunately, due to the progression of his dementia, he was moved to Memory Care. He has been living in the San Diego area for more than 50 years and although he has many friends, (who look in on him regularly), he has no relatives nearby. It is for that reason, that both myself and another sibling, we are dependent completely on the care and care givers at Grossmont Gardens. We could not be more pleased. Their communication, kindness and concern has given us a sense of relief. We are all very appreciative of the genuine warmth given to our brother.

February 15th 2025 he was sent to Cottonwood & was released a few days before Christmas to a different facility closer to our home. I have to say Cottonwood is a wonderful SNF. Everyone was great. The place is clean. The nurses, CNAs, & therapist took such great care of him. If there's an issue they address it immediately. My husband is a very picky eater. Unfortunately we live in San Diego & Cottonwood is in El Cajon, so it was difficult for me to get there every day. The receptionists Arecelli & Ally made sure he received any food I ordered. Everyone is friendly & helpful. Alexandra was a great help making appointments & setting up transportation for my husband's doctors appointments. I definitely recommend Cottonwood. Thank you everyone. My husband just told me they called to check up on how he's doing. I miss this facility.

This is what proper care looks like--unlike the treatment my husband received at Granite Hills in…read moreEl Cajon. I would tell them, "He cannot eat; he cannot use his hands to feed himself." Yet they would shout at him, saying, "You were here just two weeks ago, and you were lifting your hands! You're faking it--you're a brilliant actor!" I would insist, "He can't," and they would retort, "Yes, he can." Consequently, I ended up having to feed him with my own hands. That was in the beginning; later, his condition deteriorated further, and he lost the ability to swallow. They would serve him dry, hard pizza--until, after we complained time and again, they finally changed his diet. Even then, however, the food remained substandard, so I would bring him meals from home. Whenever they took him to the bathroom, they would handle him roughly; he would return to his bed in tears. This is the kind of corrupt care found in El Cajon, California--where the administration merely puts up decorations and a few balloons for special occasions, all to pull the wool over people's eyes. I would often hear women screaming--crying out from hunger or because their adult diapers hadn't been changed. My son and I would visit the care facility, bringing along moist wipes to clean my husband, as well as disinfectants to sanitize his bedside table and the floor; we would also open the window to air out the room. We visited both during the day and in the evening. Despite our efforts, it was an incredibly difficult and painful ordeal--one that continued until he passed away three months ago. Had my financial situation been better, I never would have left him in a care facility; however, my circumstances were harsh. I have two children suffering from muscular dystrophy, and, unfortunately, our apartment is too small.
