Great experience
reviewed on: 11/29/2018 by Team MargeMy mother-in-law was at Grossmont Gardens in independent living for about 3 years and loved it there. She enjoyed the people, all of the activities and the food. The employees always watched out for her. Our experience was a wonderful one and would highly recommend.
Positive experience with Grossmont Gardens
reviewed on: 11/30/2020 by Jay GreesonWe chose Grossmont Gardens because of the proximity to family, recommendations from friends and family members, and their good reputation. My dad was in memory care unit and his room was plenty big for what his needs were. The thing that stuck out to us most about this facility was the caring staff members. I would highly recommend.
The food is excellent I would give it a 5!!
reviewed on: 05/31/2016 by AnonymousI would recommend this community as it is one of the few communities in the area that offer convalescent care and injectables. They offer activities however my friend does not yet participate in them. The building is clean and well taken care of. The only thing I have a small concern about is the staff does not seem to respond to residents calls in a timely manner.
Easy, Positive Experience
reviewed on: 04/28/2021 by AnonymousThe food is good with a good variety for the residents to choose from, and they have a new chef. They have been taking the residents on tours and other recreational games for the residents to choose from. I would look around to compare, you will probably that what Grossmont Gardens if offering is the top notch for money. The community is situated on a hill; however the assisted devices can be difficult to get out of the community for those that need assistance with canes, walkers, or wheelchairs.
