Memory Care Communities in Westminster, CA

"I have had family in Garden Grove for my whole life, so I am pretty familiar with the area. About 2 years ago my great aunt moved into Emeritus at Garden Manor. I hadn't visited her however until April of 2012. Upon arrival at Emeritus, I was pleasantly surprised. It is a very nice facility. The lobby is extraordinary compared to other facilities I have been to. It was very well kept as well. The staff was extremely kind and helpful with any questions I had, as well as helping me get around the facility. Spirits were generally high throughout, with respect to the tenants. My great uncle enjoys his stay here. He says that the staff is very nice to him and he has also made friends with many people that live here as well. They have a excellent library here that gives the tenants somewhere to relax. They have many other activities as well, that I did not get to experience. The dining room is top notch as well as the food they serve. This is one of the best facilities I have visited and I would highly recommend it to others. "

"I chose Carmel Village because it seemed like a place that would be a good fit for my friend. It's a well kept community, it has a memory care unit, and the place is very clean. The people that I saw there seemed really satisfied. They had a recreational activity going on for a group from the memory care unit when we visited. The room that she has is nice. It's sort of divided, but it's just one room. It's nice for her to be able to have someone to communicate with, rather than just being in a room by herself. I think she'll be happier in that environment. The dining area looked very nice, attractive, and very clean. I only spoke with the receptionist there, the marketing director, and one other administrative person, but I found them all to be knowledgeable and cooperative. They answered the questions I had and took the time to show me the community. Some of the people in the memory care unit were engaged in a craft activity, and they seemed to be interacting and enjoying themselves."

"Meadowlark Gardens I was very nice and clean. It was a regular house in a regular neighborhood, and that was what I was looking for. The staff who assisted me with the tour was very friendly and helpful. I saw some residents there in their wheelchairs watching TV. I saw a private room, and it was very clean and very nicely decorated. The courtyard had tables and stuff."

"My dad moved in a week ago. The place seems nice. The staff was amazing so far. I toured the place, and they have great rooms. It was spacious and good. I paid for a double room, but he is by himself because they're low on people right now. So he will be getting a roommate, I imagine. It seems like they keep them busy all day long. They have a calendar of activities. The first day there, he's on their Facebook page dancing like two hours after he got there. So that was a good one. They have so much room. They have a huge amount of walking area. I haven't seen that in any other place. It's all dementia and Alzheimer's there, so there's no assisted living. They can go outside, walk around, and circle. It's pretty cool. That's good for him because he's a walker. The place seems awesome."

"Huntington Terrace had everything I wanted. It had a community. The people were very friendly. It smelled clean. It had nice open areas for activities and a big dining room with a chef. The studio's size was adequate, and it had a small patio facing a green space. However, it was too expensive. It was almost $3,000 a month, and it was out of my range, but I had a very good feel for it when I went to visit. The room had a small access bathroom, nice closet, a small kitchenette, and a quarter-size refrigerator. I was told that you that you wouldn't stay in your room for long because people would come knocking on your door to take you places. They had transportation to the local pharmacy and to local doctors. They had cable TV, and they pay for everything. The only things they were not paying for were your personal items such as your medications and any other personal items you might need. I saw the dining room. It was very nice with round tables. I read their menu, and it looked very tempting. The food was included in the rent. They had a swimming pool with an exercise program, a mini golf course, and they had a nice little green area where you could take a walk. It was situated on a hillside, but all of their levels inside were flat of course. However, it had limited parking for guests, and that was the only difficult part if you were a guest coming in with your own car. "

"We went to Oakmont of Huntington Beach. It was a good tour. The place was on a larger scale and cost. Everything was beautiful, but my mom did not like the location. It was a little farther out than she wanted to be. The staff was very good. She was very thorough; it was a good hour-and-a-half tour, so we felt that we saw everything. We were able to see the dining room with people in it, and it was beautiful. They have a hallway exercise every morning where the residents come out in front of their rooms and do exercises. They had computer classes, which my mom really liked, crafts, cards, and there was a piano in the lobby. One thing that really appealed to my mom is that they had covered parking, because she's still driving."

"Ivy Park at Huntington Beach is a beautiful community. It is smaller. It is nice, but it is a little out of our budget. They did not have a full kitchen in the rooms. You would have a microwave, a small sink, and a small fridge. So, if you plan on doing any cooking there, it's very limited. It was well decorated and nice, but I felt like I was walking into a motel room with their kitchen and the little fridge. The staff was very welcoming. They seemed to enjoy and like what they were doing."

"Westmont of Cypress was practically brand new. Everything was shiny and had a nice finish to it. It had an exercise pool, which I found would be very helpful. You could walk in the pool for exercise. They gave us lunch, and it was delicious. Everybody seemed very friendly. What I didn't like was that it was all concrete with just a few shrubs around it. There was a nice patio, but there was absolutely no green space. The staff who assisted us with the tour was very helpful. She sat us down to lunch and said she'd be back, but she never came back. And so, we finally just left on our own."

"I looked here. I liked the interaction, the activities that were scheduled, and the care for the seniors. Their dining room was set up very well. They had menus for all dietary restrictions. It was like going into a 4-star hotel room. They had activities like dancing, bingo, and trips for people who would like to go to casinos or shopping malls. "

"We visited Walnut Village. We’re moving in there in two weeks. It suited us well in all respects. We are moving into a 1,400-square-foot apartment, and it is a perfect size and the way it’s arranged is going to work well for us. They have an indoor swimming pool and fitness center, which we will try, and an art room that I have my eyes on. There are a lot of activities that are ongoing that I think we will enjoy. The dining room and coffee shop are nice. I have a full kitchen in my apartment. The staff members are very helpful, very warm, and friendly and welcomed us. It's just very comfortable. "

"I toured this facility. I like that it's close to our current place where I'm living. I like the property, people, and staff I met. The person who took me on the tour was kind and nice. They're very detailed, very caring, and want to help. She even told me, "What can I do for you to help you?" I liked that. I like that they have this process of checking their mentality, and they check everything, physically and mentally. They do assessments before accepting them into the community. So, I like all the details that they have. It was very clean and well-lit in every area because we went through the community, where they gathered together to play, and the patio was nice."

"Oakmont of Orange was a very, very nice community. It's just a much larger deposit and a higher price for the studio apartment than others, but it's a fantastic facility. It's beautiful. They have both assisted living and memory care, but we were primarily there to talk about memory care support. The shared rooms were a little smaller, but they were still very nice. The studio was very large and very, very nice. I got a tour from the representative and I kind of met some of the staff. The staff seemed very nice. They seemed very well-managed and very organized."
