Anytime I had a question or made a request, they were very quick to help my mom and never appeared to be bothered by my requests. Julie, our case manager, was especially helpful with communicating to my dad and I about my mom, her needs, and understanding potential issues with our healthcare provider. My dad's English isn't the best, but Julie was incredibly patient to listen to my dad and made sure to understand his concerns. It is sad that my mom's health necessitated such a facility, but I am thankful that Shoreline did everything possible to make my mom comfortable.

The Regency Palms has been a godsend in finding an ideal assisted living environment for both my…read moreparents. I had to scramble to find a quality care environment in the midst of the pandemic, but the Regency's preventive and response measures under such fluid circumstances have been highly effective. It's a reflection of their management approach and tireless commitment to quality service and care. The facility is clean and well-maintained with a boutique hotel vibe. Meriza, the Wellness Director, has been attentive to my parents care needs from day 1, keeping me apprised of any significant health changes. Aileen the Life Enrichment Director keeps the residents engaged in invaluable group activities to keep minds and bodies active. Chef Kristine and her staff do a wonderful job preparing 3 quality meals a day and catering regular special events for residents to enjoy. Tony in charge of Maintenance has been an upbeat Mr. Fixit also overseeing laundry and housekeeping services. Business Office Manager Davina ensures billing is accurate and my parents residency remains in good standing. And Carla, the Executive Director, ties everything together with an open ear, timely communications and a seemingly never ending work schedule. Yet it's the hardworking front line staff like Caregiver Lupe and Med Tech Mary that keep the Regency such a comforting environment for residents and their families. My parents acclimation to the Regency Palms had its challenges as is unavoidable when transitioning from independent living to assisted, but their physical, mental and emotional health has dramatically improved since relocating 8 months ago. Caregiving is not a trade for the weak of heart. But to deliver such good service in a time when good workers have never been more difficult to find is a testament to the quality people who choose to work at the Regency Palms and those who lead them.

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.

The license for this current location is 198320283. You will also want to check their old license from the Vernon address that was previously used. That license number is 198601936. When checking the old license go to the report. Go to complaints and choose the date of 1/19/24. You can read the entire report. The Unsubstantiated Claims show up first. If you scroll down to the Substantiated Claims you will see what the State substantiated. Keep in mind the substantiated are there because there were outside witnesses. The unsubstantiated is because no resident is going to tell the truth about what really goes on, understandably, they have to live there. Beware of the owner Jose Umana and the Administrator Elsa Roman. They come off very professionally and compassionated. They really don't care about anything but your money. Jose has 5 or 6 of these residences and they know all the tricks of not reporting what goes on.

I always visited my mother at Vernon Cottage several times every week and saw first hand the personalized care my mother was receiving in a small, home like atmosphere. Just perfect for us! Now during these difficult times when we can no longer visit due to the COVID-19 virus, Jose and Elsa are finding ways for me to FaceTime with my mother and the staff help my mother with phone calls, just letting her hear my voice saying that I love her.
