Community Reviews
We made the best choice for Dad and Mom
reviewed on: 11/24/2017 by Phil WinterThe Winter Family just wanted to say thank you for the extra special care you have provided to our Dad and Mom. You all just really don't understand how much we appreciated you. Our family made the very best choice when we made Grossmont Gardens the choice for Dad and Mom. First in the Assisted Living and then after Dad passed the transition for Mom into the Nursing Care Facility. I just could not imagine where we could have gotten better care.
Highly recommended
reviewed on: 11/10/2018 by AnonymousMy Mom loves it there. She quickly made friends and the staff has been wonderful. They do monthly birthday parties for the residents. Hers is in August and she talked about that party for weeks. She uses the shuttle to go to doctors’ appointments and shopping and has gotten more independent since moving there. I give it two thumbs up.👍 👍
Good Place
reviewed on: 10/23/2013 by Daughter of a ResidentThey're making some changes. They're changing how they distribute medication which could cost a little more. They're also changing how people pay but that wont affect us until next year. The care services are great. The activities seem to be great. My mother has Alzheimer's so she doesn't participate but the people who do participate seem to be happy with them. I wasn't thrilled with when we were moving in. Someone was supposed to be helping us. I would email her and call her and I never got a response. Finally we worked around her and found somebody else. She's still working there as far as I know.
