I am way overdue sharing my thoughts about De Un Amor in Corralitos…read more Our mother moved into the facility in mid 2019 after stays at some SNF's in the Santa Cruz/Watsonvile area. She was suffering from Parkinson's disease then had some falls resulting in to two incidences of broken hips. Needless to say, a really rough time previous to her arriving at De Un Amor, but once there things smoothed out greatly for her. I really can't say enough about how much we appreciated our mom being in such a pleasant place. The facility itself is bright and inviting; and the outside grounds with an orchard one side and a creek on the other is so very nice. The staff are all very kind, attentive and caring toward the residents and visitors. When I first visited De Un Amor I said to the owner, Trygve, "I want to live here"; to which he laughed and commented, "everyone says that." So in summation I guess the best I can say about the place is that I would be content to have my sunset there.

Then in early 2024, I needed hip replacement surgery. My wife has dementia, so I hired CFTH to take care of my wife, expecting to be able to come back home after 4 days in a skilled nursing facility. I had major setbacks and spent 2 full months in the hospital. Thankfully, I returned home to a wife that had been extraordinarily well cared for during my unexpected absence. At that point, I also needed a lot of care. It's two years later, and the team from CFTH is still taking excellent care of my wife and me. I am very grateful for Jackie and her team.

This inhumane facility is not a "hospice center" or "assisted living facility." It is an illegal…read moresemi-institution/nursing home for middle age to elderly SARC consumers/adults with intellectual disabilities. I am certain she calls it a "hospice center" as a cover for why they die so often. This owner keeps changing names evade accountability. This was "Rachel's Home" last month, and was the only option the regional center would give my sister. This place almost killed my sister in one short, 3 month respite placement. I was trying to move us both out of this area but my sister couldn't even complete the respite stay. This facility is dangerously understaffed, on purpose. There were 11 residents two months ago, but they have a lot of openings, as residents don't stay long, probably because their families pull them out or they die from untreated health conditions and neglect. Most look residents look depressed. There are two I am very concerned for, one of which looks like she is in severe pain. These residents are getting the bare minimum, assembly line care. They are all confined to a small living space or their rooms during the day. They eat dinner at 4 PM and are locked in their rooms for 13 hours at night. Their health issues are hidden. "Rachelle" will kick your loved one out if you complain. This facility isn't a home, its an inhumane prison. Prisoners and animals are treated better than these residents. My sister is very high needs. She has severe food allergies. This facility refused to follow her special diet, which could have killed her. My sister was confined to a chair all day. No one talked to her. She didn't go outside. She was in her room alone for hours before bed. They wouldn't turn her TV on for her. They lost her remote, along with many of her personal belongings. She was on the most dangerously low caregiver to consumer ratio I've ever seen at 1:8. They had no plans on her birthday. They lost her bedding and gave her one dirty hospital blanket, on her birthday. Some residents are supposed to have their own caregiver but this owner is stealing those 1:1 funds. There are only 2 caregivers, ever. The manager suggested my sister get her own caregiver to address the serious neglect she was suffering, so I had to let the regional center know how badly this place was neglecting my sister to get her on a safer ratio. Her facility was inspected so this owner "Rachel" took over my sister's IPP to kick her out without 30 day notice. I recorded that meeting. The owner didn't even know what an IPP was, much less what "consumer-centered" or "individualized" meant. She then lied to SARC and said I swore in that meeting and to her staff to be able to kick her out. When I got a lawyer in response to those lies, they repeated those lies to a court official to get my conservatorship removed, so I had to drop everything to defend myself against those lies to a judge. The funny part is that they knew I recorded that meeting. I had to get a sheriff escort to get my sister to prevent her from saying more lies about me. Rachel wouldn't give my sister her meds without signing something, because she doesn't realize my sister is an adult with rights who doesn't have to sign anything, and not a product that Rachel owns. Some of her meds were missing and were clearly misused. My sister walked out of that place with walking pneumonia and two ear infections. She was spacey and combative and lost some of her independent skills. If she had stayed her dementia would have rapidly progressed and she would die from untreated health conditions. I was able to keep my conservatorship because it was easy to disprove this woman's lies. but this place is now on the county's radar as being extremely sketchy and dangerous. SARC also lost all credibility. This woman's lies keep backfiring & she can't stop lying to save herself. My sister's lawyer said there have been multiple reports to licensing about this place. The owner keeps changing her name and the name of her facility because following basic laws to provide humane care is not an option for this owner, no matter how many inspections she gets. "Rachel" is one of many opportunistic sociopaths who came to this country to take advantage of the lack of regulations of the care for vulnerable adults in this area. SARC pays many similar "homes" to this one to neglect vulnerable adults to death. SARC knows they change names and doesn't care. Thats the only reason this place doesn't get shut down. All regional center services are like this. Eugenics is how the state saves money. Im not going to stop until the whole world knows it.

If you looking for a facility i will recommend Rachelle's Home. My Mom stayed there for 6 years and…read more2months i visited my mom everyday stayed with her until the end of life.

The intake process was made all the more easy due to its kind, welcoming, and professional staff. The counselor (MD) I met with was thorough and truly caring. The dosing nurses are great, and the front office staff are kind, friendly, professional, and if you don't mind me saying... all QUITE BEAUTIFUL which makes the daily, early morning visit that much more pleasant. Having a drug dependency/addiction is no fun. MMT clinics are all required to follow strict protocol, and have strict rules patients must abide by - this clinic is no different in that aspect, but the atmosphere of the clinic and the attitude of the staff and patients is very positive here, which really matters, A LOT ! My only criticism is the high intake fee - and the higher than avg monthly cost which, if not for the staff, would have me looking elsewhere.

They do their work patiently in a comforting manner and with a smile. Next up are the PT's and OT's who specialize their services to get their patients back up to an improved life style. It was my good fortune to have such competent help. The kitchen team is another great asset. Besides handling the demand for three daily meals they accommodate special requests whenever possible. The cleaning crew is outstanding. They keep the facility spotless all the time. A High 5 for all of them. In my case management was the weak link. Communication in a timely manner was sorely lacking. There is room for improvement. Would I come back here? Yes, because of the caring staff who do all the daily work with patience and a smile. I wish all of them well and good health. Inge

Alan Brauner at Senior Seasons is amazing. Recently my 89-year-old Mom fell and broke her hip…read more During her recuperation we realized that it just wasn't realistic for her to live at home alone anymore, and that we needed to find her an assisted living facility. Not knowing the first thing about these facilities, I reached out to Alan Brauner at Senior Seasons. I can't even begin to explain how helpful he was. He listened to our situation, provided me with insight and contact information on the local facilities, explained what I needed to know, and what to consider when reaching out to these prospective places. His advice was invaluable. He was always there for me, whenever I had questions. He was super responsive, emailing back or calling right away. And through this process my mom kept changing her mind about where she wanted to live (mid-peninsula near her friends, south bay near me), and so our requirements kept changing. Through it all Alan was patient and positive - something I really needed during this stressful time. I seriously have no idea how I would have handled this whole situation without him. I highly recommend Alan and Senior Seasons.
