I wasn't too impressed with...
reviewed on: 09/25/2013 by A Place For Mom CustomerI wasn't too impressed with the facility overall-there was only one group activity going on while we were there-and a lot of residents just sitting around. There was a movie room, gathering rooms, a game room....all with nobody in them. We decided not to tour the Palmcrest Grand yesterday.
My parents' life changes have been so...
reviewed on: 06/21/2013 by Grace HarperMy parents' life changes have been so difficult and challenging for the last two years. I never imagined that they would be able to adjust to assisted living, which I believed was an undesirable yet necessary solution. However, they are now doing surprisingly well and are enjoying being together, and we enjoy regular and pleasant family visits. This success owes to the amazing, wonderful staff at Vista Del Mar, and to the community's uniquely "young" décor (my mother could never have accepted the situation without it!). From the compassionate and fabulous director, Denise Gilroy, the very competent care director Sidonia, and the truly caring staff, to the great energy and follow-up of Suzette in Sales, they helped my parents -- and me -- more than words can possibly express. In addition, they even have great physicians who make house calls. I am confident my parents are in good care at Vista Del Mar.

Why isn't food a part of this overall rating scale?
reviewed on: 04/14/2016 by AnonymousI would have given a 'great' star in cleanliness if the dining area were cleaner. Food stuck in chair seats and tables not always cleaned before second seating. Friendly and helpful. Everyone. A few go way above and beyond. I don't know if I should name names! Value. I think its a good value as I looked at 10 places. They save money on the food. They save too much. More effort should be put in to meals. Twice I found the food to be horrific, three times I wasn't horrified and once it was o.k. and I've eaten there 6 times. Not good odds. I hope they are working on this. Care services are expensive as they are every where. Luckily we don't need many yet. Activities director is great! Outings fill up and that's not o.k. Everyone should get to go out if they can and they want. I think they are working on that though.
