This place is truly awful. My mom has been here quite…read moresometime. I am being told by caregivers that she we should remove her immediately. That she doesn't receive adequate care here. That they are extremely understaffed. That there has even come a time when 1 caregiver had to work a whole floor themselves during the morning and evening shift. So therefore how is one person giving showers, feeding them , changing them and caring for them. I am being told my mom is sometimes not fed because they forget to feed her. They use the supplies that I buy for her like combs, socks and shirts and use them for other residents. They use my mom's wipes and briefs for other residents. That the staff does not use hoyer as they should be and sometimes one caregiver is transferring my mom who is not that skinny or lightweight onto the wheel chair and back for meals. I didn't think much because I barely am able to visit with my work schedule and so a I was told this by caregivers Mike the director is apparently cheap and does not provide enough supplies that even caregivers have to go without wipes or gloves. I will be calling the state licensing and have them come in the specific days and times the caregivers have explained to me so that they could see what's really going on.

We discovered The Gardens By The Sea, toured and soon moved our father into a comfortable room. It was an adjustment for him, but he was well cared for, still welcomed many visiting friends and family, enjoyed the weekly entertainment groups, the delicious food as well as the Turner Classic Movie channel on their cable. Elsa and staff were friendly, detailed and professional. Owner, David Cooper, was often present to say "Hello" and ask if all was good. We definitely made a wise decision for the benefit of everyone in our family. Thanks to everyone at The Gardens by the Sea! J&J

I really appreciated the time Caroline took to help me learn more about the community and its offerings!

My parent was a resident for a very short time. I moved them out due to lack of compassion,…read moretraining, and staffing. The staff is NOT trained to handle different dementia behaviors. I witnessed staff, on several occasions, ignoring residents when they became combative and difficult. Hearing them tell one another, "I am not handling them". My parent was accused of aggressive/abusive behaviors. Sending them to the ER, rather than deescalating the situation. Staff expected my demented parent to inform them when they were becoming agitated or overwhelmed to provide them with their prescribed "as needed" medication. Staffs lack medical training/guidance Director Caroline S. would call demanding my parent be removed out of the facility, despite physician advising against this. Our provider informed the director, on more than one occasion, any move would be detrimental to their health. Director does not appear to have medical knowledge, or is just not familiar with physician orders. Medications were not administered as directed. The facility is not staffed appropriately with the amount of residents. Many residents were alone with no staff around. I witnessed staff sitting around and speaking about other residents. Highly unprofessional and unethical. Rooms were cleaned daily. There was leftover food in my parents room from the night before. Bugs flying around in and around the room. Despite of personal items being labeled, my parents clothes, personal possessions, walker and cane would end up in other residents rooms. The facility made a strong impression that my parent would be well taken care of. Safe and well cared for. The facility made it impossible and difficult for my parent to adjust. This is supposed to be a memory care facility. Staff is supposed to be trained to handle ALL levels of dementia. They don't! Had I known this, I would have never placed my parent in this facility. I do not recommend this facility with your loved one.

My family and I couldn't be happier with Sunrise of Oceanside and the amazing staff that cared for…read moremy grandparents until their recent passing. Upon move in, Sunrise literally rolled out a red carpet for my grandparents and cared for them as if they were celebrities throughout the remaining months of their lives. It was a true treat for them, but even more significant to us - the joy that radiated within my grandparents is something we hadn't seen in some time! My grandfather literally referred to the facility as "opulent and extravagant"; he felt like he was on eternal vacation. We chose Sunrise as they had memory care, which would allow my grandparents to stay together as my grandfathers dementia progressed. Unfortunately, my grandparents passed sooner than we anticipated, but in the 5 months we spent with Sunrise we established lasting connections. My family and I will be forever indebted to each of the talented and caring staff that loved my grandparents like family.

Unfortunately and unbeknownst to me she needed much more acute care but wow, everyone at Sunrise went through a huge effort to help my mom and the residents seemed very happy. It's unfortunate there's so few reviews but this is definitely the best place I've seen and I've seen plenty. I cannot recommend more.

Sherri Singleton was a light during a storm of overwhelm as I navigated the emotional and…read morelogistical chaos of relocating my mom to California. She had been through a similar experience with her own mother, and she came into my life at just the right time--originally for a totally different reason, but it turned out to be divine timing. She gave me a thoughtful, practical list of tips for having that initial, tough conversation with my mom about moving into Assisted Living. And she didn't just drop the info and disappear--she checked in on me the entire way through the process. She also connected me with Carol from The Light for Seniors (another absolute angel), and that referral changed everything. Sherri is knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly resourceful--but what really sets her apart is her heart. She's lived this journey, and she genuinely cares. Bonus? Her services are paid by the facilities--not by families. If your family is looking for support in finding the right assisted living facility for your loved one, CALL SHERRI. You'll be so glad you did.
