Best assisted living facilities in California: find options near you

My husband and I enjoy living at The Forum at Rancho San Antonio. Each of us has found new friendships and great projects to which we can contribute. Recently, we participated in Earth Day and supported development of a Wishing Tree project where all residents and staff were invited to share their hopes for the future of the Forum in context of a healthy community and planet. These hopes and wishes inform actions and actions create possibilities. The grounds are beautiful. The homes are beautiful. The people are wonderful and the food is terrific. We are happy to call The Forum home and for all the possibilities here !

I visited 6 or 7 retirement faculties in the Bay Area and chose The Forum for its beautiful 50-acre campus and its easy access to my previous home town of Los Altos Hills. Everything about the Forum met and exceeded my expectations, including: plenty of space to walk my little dog, the friendly residents, the efficient and diligent workers, and two restaurants with delicious food. The only downside is trying to not gain weight while enjoying the easy life here😂!! There are also many offerings of classes, programs with speakers, and even a library, so it is easy to keep busy and engaged without having to go off campus. And to keep fit, there is also fitness room, swimming pool, and of course lots of trails both within The Forum’s campus and at the nearby Rancho San Antonio Park. I highly recommend The Forum !!!!

Absolutely one of the best places to live! The community is beautiful, the people are warm and welcoming, and the overall ambiance is simply wonderful. You can truly feel a sense of comfort, friendship, and community here. The staff and residents make it an awesome place to call home.

My Grandmama was one of the first members to move into the community back in 1991 when it first opened. I would frequently visit and enjoy our visits. The experiences at the community were always positive. Among the many positive experiences, what always stood out was the wonderful hospitality provided by the entire team. Consistently we were greeted with a smile and asked if there was anything else that they could help with. It was also good to see the same team members throughout the years. This was an indicated that there was a low turn over rate, which meant the team was treated well. The team knew grandmama’s preferences and paid attention to the details. On top the ambience there is the scenic view that this community provides. Grandmama’s back drop was Rancho San Antonio mountains. A gorgeous view to watch the sunset and sunrise. This community provided as I said the the beginning a lot of positive experiences.

As a new resident to The Forum, my first experience was with Michelle, who guided a tour through all of the facility and then skillfully and professionally helped during the offer/acceptance/buy and move in processes. This is a first rate senior community and Michelle set the tone with her first-rate organization and helpfulness.

I recently brought an international group of 40 occupational therapy students (from 19 countries) to the Kensington, and I cannot say enough good things about our experience. One thing that stood out to all of us was the standard of love and care shown to everyone (community members and visitors alike) by the Kensington team. It was clear that no one was there to just ‘do their job’ but were genuinely giving of themselves … real person-to-real-person. Our OT student group observed that this can only happen when the team itself feels valued, cared for, empowered, and appreciated. We’ve been lucky to visit the Kensington many times over the years, and each time we’ve come away with this impression of a community of love, care, and connection. Here is a photo of 5 of our occupational therapy students sharing about their countries (Singapore, Jordan, and South Korea) during our visit last week.

My wife and I recently celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary with a reception for family and friends at The Kensington Sierra Madre. The staff worked closely with our family to make sure the event went off just as planned. Our guests were impressed with the caring staff and the lovely grounds and facilities. We are so grateful to The Kensington for helping to make our 50th Anniversary Celebration such a lovely memory.

I have been to the Kensington on multiple occasions and each time I am greeted with warmth and care. The place is very clean and the staff all look excited and happy to be there. Every time I visit, the residents are having a blast with activities like Casino Night, Bingo, and Uno — they look so happy and are genuinely having fun. It is clear that everyone truly enjoys being there. If you are looking for a great community to be a part of, the Kensington is it.

The Kensington is a remarkable senior living community located in the heart of beautiful downtown Sierra Madre. From the moment you step inside, the warm and inviting atmosphere makes you feel right at home. Their dedication to providing excellent care for residents is truly unmatched. Marjorie has always been incredible and does things above and beyond, April’s kindness shines through in everything she does, and Danielle is such a wonderful addition to their amazing team. Their events are second to none, bringing joy and connection to everyone involved. We absolutely love working with The Kensington and are so grateful for all they do!

Our family is so glad we found the Kensington for our mom, who moved into her Kensington suite one year ago. Mom experienced a stroke in late 2024 that has made her reliant on a wheelchair and assistance for daily activities. Her loss of independence was very sudden and a difficult adjustment for her, but the Kensington’s positive and caring environment has really helped her live a fuller life than if she were living at home alone with hired aides. The daily social activities, outings, and regular contact with the care staff have really improved mom’s mood. Visiting her is always pleasant and hassle-free — we can stop by whenever we want and stay for meals, or take her out for our own outings. The facility is like a giant house with lots of roommates, and the outdoor spaces are very pleasant for visits when there is nice weather. The Kensington also has lots of events for different holidays, including their big Independence Day barbecue where families are invited to a front-row seat to the annual Sierra Madre July 4th parade that goes by past the Kensington, followed up with lunch. The Kensington isn’t the cheapest elder care, but the peace of mind is priceless. The staff are caring, honest, and always ready to help, and I know my mom is safe. I highly recommend considering the Kensington for your loved ones.

We had to move our mother to The Kensington three weeks ago. Her primary caregiver Martha Reyes, has been excellent. She bonded exceptionally well with our mother, and my mother is bonding with her too. We can’t thank her enough for taking mom under her wings and giving her all the care and attention that we had expected. She’s exceeded our expectations, and is a great credit to Kensington care staff. Jeff M.

The Kensington Sierra Madre is truly an exceptional senior living community. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by a warm, friendly staff who genuinely care about every resident. The building is beautifully maintained, clean, and feels more like a comfortable home than a traditional senior care facility.

My husband and I moved to the Vi a year and a half ago, and it has exceeded our expectations. The best part about living here is the people who are so friendly, and supportive of new residents. We wanted to be able to take advantage of everything Vi has to offer…daily exercise classes, art classes, lectures, bus trips every week to walk around interesting places, holiday parties etc. Staff is excellent. Everyone smiles, and quickly gets to know your name, especially in the dining room where they know I like a lot of ice in my water. Everyone on staff works so hard to make sure we are happy. It is a wonderful place to live

Although we are not yet living at the VI La Jolla Village, our review is for the months-long process to become a resident. Our case is a bit more complicated since we are transitioning from 56 years in Hawaii to La Jolla. We chose the VI because we were looking for a five-star healthy lifestyle experience for our «last rodeo.» We looked for a community with excellent weather, that was close to town, to the beach and to most of our family. Everyone on the staff has been incredibly helpful and welcoming. We could not ask for better! Kelly Parkins-Aguirre heading up the Sales Department, Tracy Anderson, the Renovation Manager guiding us through a complete renovation of our apartment, and Brenda Peterson, shepherding us through the move-in process, and other staff have welcomed us completely as though family. We’ve been able to visit the VI multiple times over the past months and have met a number of vibrant and enthusiastic new friends. We were also very impressed by the multitude of lifestyle and cultural activities, and especially the first-in-the-country Brain Vitality Studio that offers top notch training promoting brain health. We believe it will be the perfect life style for us.

My wife and I spent considerable time several years ago evaluating retirement communities in San Diego — more than twenty in all — looking for the right place for my godmother. Vi at La Jolla Village stood out above every other option we considered, and we placed her there with complete confidence. She lived there for ten years. We visited almost monthly throughout that time, and our confidence never wavered. The staff was consistently professional and genuinely caring — not just during the good years, but through every stage as her needs increased, including the critical care she required at the end of her life. Vi handled it all with skill and compassion. I cannot recommend this community highly enough to anyone facing this decision for themselves or a loved one.

Let me start this review by stating that I’M OLD!! But I’m a «young old»!! When I was looking at retirement communities (& I looked at many!), my 1st priority was to find «like» people…»young old» people with a zest for life! When I walked into the Vi, I had that AHA moment…I looked around & saw men & women laughing, smiling, engaged in lively discussions…I saw «young old» people!! When my beloved husband passed away 6 yrs ago, I never thought I could live a happy life again. It’s obviously a different kind of happy now, but WOW…what a life I’m living!! I have found a sisterhood of women that I never knew existed…such warm, welcoming & loving women who will be friends forever! Other reviews will tell you about all the wonderful things at the Vi…the staff, the activities, the food, the lectures & classes…they are beyond wonderful!! Suffice to say that moving here a yr & 1/2 ago was, by far, the 2nd best decision of my life!! I HAVE FOUND MY FOREVER HOME❤️

Vi at La Jolla Village has been my home for over 10 years and it continues to be a place I genuinely enjoy returning to each day. My apartment is bright and cheerful, with a balcony spacious enough to accommodate many plants and greenery. One of Vi’s many strengths is the Lifestyles Department which offers an impressive range of programs and activities. The variety is wide ranging and creative: exercise and physical fitness, creative arts, music and other entertainment, outings, concerts, lectures, discussions, and many are difficult to place in a specific category. The Lifestyles Department seeks to incorporate resident ideas, talents and expertise in the programming for all. A key reason I selected V is that I wanted a CCRC with good health care and rehabilitation programs. Although relatively healthy initially, many of us develop new health difficulties which require support and attention. It’s reassuring to know that care is available on-site and there’s no need to move from the community. Community is truly the right word for Vi. Residents are warm. welcoming, and genuinely look out for one another. We represent a wide range of backgrounds, experiences, education and interests which always makes for lively mealtime conversation and enriching discussions. Although I initially was opposed to moving into a high rise building (the first time in my life), that objection melted away and has become a non-issue for me. I look forward to my years ahead.

We have had a great experience with our dealings with Citrus Place so far with transition of moving my mother in law in.We have primarily dealt with Janet. She has been genuinely kind, and helpful as well as patient with all our questions. Charlie has been great as well.

My mom was ready to move to an independent living situation and Citrus Place came highly recommended from friends whose family members moved there. We took a tour with Janet and were so impressed with the community, the kindness and care everyone in the staff exhibited and the amenities. The community felt full of light and activity. Making these decisions are difficult and Janet fielded numerous questions from my mom with patience and kind encouragement. Janet helped my mom have the courage to make a very necessary move to a more supportive environment. Kudos to Janet and the entire staff. I’m excited for the new life of activities and friendships my mom will have at Citrus Place

We recently toured and moved my dad into Citrus Place. It is clean, the employees are so nice and helpful and they have so many activities and events. From the day we toured the community with Charlie, working with Megan the Director about move in and being greeted by Donna on move in day we couldn’t be happier! The first time I visited my dad after move in I asked him if he liked it, and he said «I love it, I feel like I’m at a resort» Thank you Citrus Place for providing such a wonderful place for my dad to live.

I’ve had an incredible experience today with Janet at Citrus Place. I’m trying to help my parents remotely from Florida, and Janet made everything so easy. She set up an appointment with my mom and helped her secure an apartment for my dad. All within hours!!!!! Absolutely amazing!!!!!! I also got to speak to Megan who is also helping my mom furnish his apartment. Two outstanding women that made this difficult process for me into a joyful experience. I’m on top of the world right now knowing my dad will be well taken care of. I can’t express enough gratitude. 🩷🩷 Just a side note: I just realized that Megan is the Executive Director at the facility. Here she is helping my mom with furnishing the apartment and she’s the Executive Director. I’m so impressed and so grateful!! Wow!! Janet and Megan are incredible. They have gone above and beyond to get me dad’s apartment ready. I am so impressed. I couldn’t be more grateful for all their added effort.

I wanted to give a special thank you to Charles at Citrus Place for being such an amazing partner to work with. His kindness, professionalism, and genuine care for families truly stand out. Charles went above and beyond helping with a recent move-in and made the entire process feel smooth, welcoming, and supported for the family during such an important transition. It is always a blessing working alongside people who truly care about the residents and families they serve. Thank you, Charles, for all you do and for being such a wonderful part of our senior care community!

A wonderful experience from start to finish. We were being pressured by the hospital to find quick placement for a family member. We called and visited so many facilities. Bayshire was the shining star. Laura and Chris our contact people were so kind, understanding and helpful. They guided us through the process. The facility was beautiful and clean. The staff was kind and supportive. It proved to be the perfect place for the healing and the rest our family member needed. We are forever grateful.

Five (5) years ago, our family made the decision for our mother to reside at Bayshire Senior Living and it turned out to be an excellent choice. Mom enjoyed the activities and raved about the meals she received daily by a highly competent and caring staff. Her room was immaculately maintained by housekeeping and maintenance was always helpful and attentive when she needed assistance. The nurses were special in delivering her medication twice daily. We would gladly recommend this excellent facility to house your loved ones. J & D Ruiz

I have found the Bayshore staff to be caring, loving, friendly and helpful. As a retired long term care administrator with thirty years experience in skilled nursing and a quality assurance director I am truly impressed and satisfied with the quality of care my brother has be provided . My brother has shown remarkable improvement in his physical strength, gait, and positive attitude. Two weeks after his admission to the assisted living facility the staff assisted us in reserving your private dining room so we could celebrate my brother’s birthday. The staff was so helpful and did everything possible to make our celebration a positive experience. As a family member I believe my brother is in a truly safe and truly caring environment. My brother is back to his old self and we as a family couldn’t be happier. Thank you ❤️

Our family has had a great experience so far. The staff has been incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful from the moment we checked in. They made the admission process smooth and took the time to answer all of our questions. We really appreciate the care and compassion they’ve shown to both our Tata and our family.

My mother was at Brookdale for rehab purposes in 2018. I have never seen so much incompetence in my entire life (other than government run offices, like the DMV)!!! I have personally seen and heard the emergency warning go off at the nurse’s station, and no one even gets up to check on anyone! As for my mother’s living situation, she has used her call button for help (all times for a real emergency), and nobody even came to her aid. She was forced to call me at home, and have me help her and/or tell them what’s going on. But, even then, they don’t even come into the room until after an hour after I tell them. If you are considering using Brookdale…DON’T!!!

This is a great facility!! New management has energized staff to provide outstanding, resident-centered care to all family members and guests. Disgruntled and poor performing staff that were not 100% committed to compassionate resident care, have chosen to leave. It’s a beautiful facility and you can tour with staff, see the great accommodations, and talk with staff members who are the direct care givers to family members. Your family is welcome here!!!

I am grateful my mom is here. Hospital told me this was the only place that they never get complain from. Staff has been extremely helpful, and they have accommodated my mom as much as possible. It’s all I can ask for.

The Meridian at Lake San Marcos Senior Living has exceeded our expectations in every way, and I highly recommend it to anyone searching for a caring, welcoming senior living community. My family and I have had a wonderful experience here from the very first visit. We were greeted with warmth, kindness, and professionalism, and it quickly became clear that the staff genuinely care about the residents. They consistently go above and beyond to ensure everyone feels comfortable, respected, and engaged. The community itself is beautiful, well maintained, and thoughtfully designed. There are plenty of activities that help residents stay active, social, and connected. The dining experience is excellent, and the team works hard to accommodate individual preferences and needs. What stands out most is the compassionate care and personal attention provided by the staff. They take the time to build meaningful relationships with residents and families, creating a true sense of community and belonging. It is incredibly reassuring to know our loved one is safe, happy, and receiving such exceptional care. If you are looking for a senior living community that offers outstanding care, a friendly atmosphere, and a dedicated team, The Meridian at Lake San Marcos is an excellent choice.

I was at the meridian for movie night on Friday. So much fun! My grandma really enjoys it there. Big thank you to Mollie for having so many fun events for all the residents to attend.

What a wonderful place. So thrilled and thankful there is such a quality place as The Meridian for seniors. Mollie helped to put on a wonderful day of entertainment with Reynoldo singing and playing the guitar fabulously. I loved the way Mollie got residents up to dance and enjoy themselves. I would highly recommend living at the Meridian, The food was very enjoyable and tasty as well.

As a professional in the senior care industry, and as a musical performer, I’ve had several opportunities to interact with and spend time at the Meridian at Lake San Marcos. This community is top notch, its memory care unit is unsurpassed, and the staff I’ve met from top to bottom are wonderful and committed to their jobs. Mollie Renzy, the Activities Director does such a great job!

My mother moved into Meridian Memory Care about 6 months ago. I could not ask for a better care team. The Memory Care Coordinator, Med Techs, Care Staff, Housekeeping, Sales, and Front Desk, are all very professional and have gone above and beyond to make sure that my mom is very well taken care of in this difficult stage of life. They are kind, empathetic, knowledgeable, and have the special patience it requires to provide a comfortable memory care experience for my mom and our family.

This building has changed so much over the years. you can truly see the love and care that’s been poured into it. It’s a beautiful vintage building with so much charm. Being a smaller facility gives it that warm, family-like vibe where everyone knows your name. Such a friendly and welcoming place to be!

Today I went to visit a friend at Rolling Hills Care Center in Selma California. It’s a beautiful old building with a lot of character. Once I rang the doorbell I was let in quite quickly and they had a great check in system using top of the line technology. Everybody was friendly and helped me to my friend’s room. He really loves the care he’s getting there. He and I had a great time catching up it been too long since I’ve seen him and I was so happy to have that time. It’s a beautiful place and each person gets a lot of attention.

Visited my friend post-op x multiple surgery for injuries sustained when a car fell off jacks and crushed him. The trauma staff and surgical team has done a masterful job and Rolling Hills Care Center has kept his trajectory with precise execution of his rehabilitation, a joint effort of an entire treatment team. They are laser focused on the patient’s success but always affording him the final say and the choice to refuse. This is allowing him the personal dignity to shape his own destiny. This facility is heads and shoulders above the rest in my opinion.

Rolling Hills Care Center provides a great home like environment. The staff here is amazing! CNA and Nursing staff are so attentive to resident’s needs. Housekeeping does an amazing job at keeping the place clean. Kitchen staff accommodate to residents personal food preferences (the food is delicious)! Administration is so organized and involved with resident care. Definitely proud to be part of the Rolling Hills Team.

This place is really nice, everyone is so pleasant to my daughter. I’d recommend Rolling Hills Center to everyone. A place I’d want to be should something happen to me. Thank you for your services for my daughter.

Rolling Hills is a facility where every residents expectations are met. Their number one priority is patient care. Housekeeping does awesome by keeping the facility looking spotless and smelling clean. Kitchen always makes sure that every resident has home like meals. Cnas always provided the best patient care. Nurses are awesome and make sure patients have the best recovery possible. When it comes down to team work, Rolling Hills employees are number one.

My sister is currently a patient here at this facility. This is the most uncaring, unorganized, unprofessional, and ill equipped «care facility» that I have ever seen. My sister was involved in a major automobile accident so subsequently she was sent here for her after care physical therapy to relearn how to walk again. She gets no care whatsoever when she first arrived she was put into a vintage looking crowded small room whom she shares with another patient. She is mostly left to fend for herself here , take cold showers on her own, and I’ve heard that the Fresno County Jail has a better menu than Rolling Hills Care Center. I’ve never witnessed a medical facility that allows its staff to treat patients in such an ugly way. I’ve heard the nurses cussing amongst each other , the place is understaffed , and the nurses that are there seem to always be gossiping amongst each other. It would seem to me that even a North Korean medical facilty is more capable and caring than this old facilty. It needs major improvement both with the staff and the building itself.

Touring this community with Shiann and she was lovely. Showed everything I needed and was interested in. The staff walking around were smiling and introduced themselves. Families visiting seemed happy and shared this is the best community in the valley. They must moved from Fairwinds which I just toured. Such a great community here!!! My mom joined in on an activity they had a lecture from a doctor with a beautiful display of cocktails and treats. You would think it was a weeding. The smell and cleanliness and more importantly the people were happy to be there.

The Village at Sherman Oaks is truly one of the best communities I’ve ever been to and worked with. Every interaction with staff and even residents is so pleasant. Jana, Elizabeth, Adriana, Grace, Ruby, Mercedes and the entire team here truly makes everyone feel special and welcome. If you’re looking for Independent Living in a warm and welcoming community, this is the place. When it’s time for Assisted Living or Memory Care, they have it too. This community really has it all and it’s tucked away in a neighborhood too, away from the main street. Couldn’t recommend more.

The representative was very friendly, answered all my questions, and provided me a packet with detailed information about the facility and programs. We toured the facility, which was clean, bright, and impressive. Had an opportunity to talk to some of the residents prior to the meeting; they had favorable things to say about their experiences. Everyone seemed relaxed and comfortable.

I’ve tried to find corporate email address or address for the facility to no avail so this will have to do. To the Village of Sherman Oaks, I am issuing this urgent and unequivocal admonition regarding the negligent handling of meal deliveries to my mother during her COVID isolation. For seven days, she has been confined to her home, dependent on these deliveries not only for sustenance but for essential medication that must be taken with food. Despite her timely orders, my mother has been left without her breakfast for two consecutive days, not receiving it until after 1 p.m. This delay is not merely an inconvenience; it jeopardizes her health and recovery. I demand immediate rectification of this lapse and a guarantee that this will never happen again. The well-being of my mother depends on your immediate action.

We toured the village at Sherman Oaks in September 2023. Philip was an extremely helpful, compassionate, informative host. He answered every question we had, and helped us get a deeper sense of what life would be like at the village for my mom. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the activity list and menus look terrific. I’m hoping my 88-year-old mom will ultimately decide to join this welcoming community.

I have had wonderful experiences with The Terraces of Los Gatos. It is truly one of the best and cleanest rehab facilities I have seen in the South Bay. Both my mother and my sister stayed there for extended periods of time, and their care was exceptional. The staff, nurses, and assistants are compassionate, attentive, and professional. The facility is well-maintained, and even the food is excellent. I honestly cannot think of anything that needs improvement. I am very grateful for the care they provided to my family.

I was here for PT/OT after an injury. The staff, from nursing to therapy and CNA’s are top notch. The therapy-room floor was replaced while I stayed here. These folks really helped me to heal with consistent daily therapy It’s very clean and I spent most of my time on their garden-patio. The furniture was even updated during my stay. They also host a top of the line chef so each meal is delicious and served picture-perfect. So thankful I came here.

The Terraces treated my grandmother with all the respect, dignity, and professionalism I could hope for. For aging loved ones, the Terraces is a wonderful option for their continued care and quality of life.

I had a great in-patient care and therapy experience at The Terraces. The staff is excellent and genuinely cares about the patients. They were very considerate in all aspects of care. I highly recommend The Terraces of Los Gatos for in-patient care and therapy.

The Terraces of Los Gatos is a great place to live. My resident neighbors are so varied and so very nice. The staff and administration are great. Come for a visit and fall in love with the place!

The Terraces of Los Gatos was the best possible place to have my rehab. Super clean. All meals very good. Staff and physical therapists very professional.

I have been in a couple of other rehab facilities. My wife was in The Terraces recently and it was by far the best in every way. Great care and rehab by a wonderful staff. Good food, clean and odor free.

My Mom has been at Fairwinds for about 2 years & we have been extremely pleased with the staff. Mom was fortunate to get apt #130E, which is across from the Heath & (Care?) room. Mary & Priscella work there & are outstanding employees. They are so very nice & caring & love the residents. These girls love their job & it shows. My Mom loves them. My family feels very fortunate to have found a wonderful place for Mom.

FairWinds Assisted Living is such an amazing community. You’re given the warmest and genuine greeting as you walk in from the front receptionist Alex. FairWinds utilizes community resources to elevate the daily experience for their residents such as live entertainment, enjoyable physical group activities, wonderful cuisine and a utilization of additional healthcare services such as Home health agencies to incorporate more advanced care when needed. Your loved one is in the best of care with the health and wellness team managed by Pauline LVN, Pricilla and Mary. The complex feels like a resort as you walk through with spacious living spaces. Definitely my choice to spend your days relaxing as you enjoy retirement.

Very nice (Upscale) senior living community in Fresno California. They had their 24th anniversary party this evening, entertainment was provided, live music by the «After Dinner Mints.» The food was good. It cracks me up that elderly people always seem to complain about the food in senior living communities, even when it’s good!

I want to recognize a few of your outstanding Staff members. Mary and Priscilla in Heath and Wellness for their kindness, helpfulness, compassion and the ability to help guide our Family members through the difficult process of aging. They both have gone above and beyond what we could have expected. The care and understanding our Moms needs have been greatly appreciated. Also, I want to mention Troy in Maintenance. When Mom has any issues in her apartment Troy has been there to correct the problem in a timely manner. I want to thank these outstanding individuals for their service and support. Best regards, Gary Ferguson, Son of Beverly Ferguson, 136E

My mother had an excellent experience while living at Fairwinds for over three years. She enjoyed her time there with the residents, getting reacquainted with some old friends, making new friends and enjoyed interacting with the staff, especially the Wellness Team who took excellent care of her needs. She enjoyed the special events that were offered on holidays and some Friday and Saturday evenings especially when the accordion player, Rick DeCarlo, was scheduled and played traditional Italian songs – she would set her walker aside and get up and dance to the music! Once we moved my mother into Fairwinds we experienced a ‘peace of mind’ knowing that her needs would be taken care of 24/7. She did have a couple of health issues while staying there and was tended by the wellness team quickly to assist her and contact emergency services for her. After recovering and returning to Fairwinds the staff took the extra time to help her adjust coming back to the community and get her back on her routine. It is unfortunate that after this recent health issue my mother wont be able to return to Fairwinds, but we have great memories of her time in the community and have made great friendships with the staff and residents that were close to her.

Fast service, genuine smiles, and people who clearly know what they are doing. My inner critic searched for a complaint and returned empty-handed.

Fairwinds is wonderful! My mother was a resident there and it encouraged wellness and friendship. There are classes and entertainment to keep residents active and engaged such as knitting, language classes, exercise, bible study, and church. The transportation was very convenient and available not only for medical appointments but social activities and shopping as well. The new chef has created a new menu. They are always looking to add new items that residents like and open to suggestions. The staff is kind, helpful, and understanding. We would definitely recommend Fairwinds.
