Don't look anywhere else!!

I would HIGHLY recommend Atria Hillcrest to any family that needs to find an assisted living community in California! My mom was fully independent until she started falling in July and landed in the hospital then skilled nursing. I am in Texas so it was a daunting task finding my mom a community that I could feel comfortable with. I started the search online, but then someone from the hospital referred me to Atria Hillcrest and I'm so glad they did. It wasn’t until I flew in and spent 2 weeks there to get her get settled that I realized how extraordinary it is. They have clearly built a culture of caring at this community from the moment you walk in the front door and are greeted by the team at the desk, to the lovely ladies who care for my mom, and everyone else in between. Everyone went well above what I expected, and it was everything I prayed for. It is evident that they have a GENUINE love of what they do and for their residents. What an amazing gift!!!

Review for Atria Hillcrest

I was very clear with Atria that my mother would need to transition to hospice care at some point. I was assured that Atria could accommodate this. I would not have moved my mother there otherwise. At the point she transitioned to hospice care following a hospital visit, Atria would not take her back without a 24 hour a day aide at $[fee removed] per hour. I was forced to find other accommodations for my mother in a short period of time. The staff that provided direct care to my mother in the time she was there were very kind and compassionate.

Upon a thorough search this was the best place for my mom.

Staff is very good & always understanding & helpful. The mgmt team could be a bit more responsive more quickly. Takes too much time to get them to reply or help with situations

Friendly staff

Her experience has been very good. They are supportive and responsive. The facility is maintained in a very clean and safe state. They welcome and encourage feedback and inclusion. Meals and activities are diverse and well planned. Nice all I would say that the director [name removed] deserves a lot of credit fur the quality service and environment. He is a very effective leader and caring advocate fur residents and employees. Everyone seems happy there.

We made the most wonderful choice for mom!

My 94 year old mom had lived alone in a large apartment for more than 12 years. We tried to reason with her and talk her into assisted living for both her well being and our peace of mind about what was surely best for her. My brother works in the field of "Elder Care" and an associate of his recommended Atria to us for mom. My brother and sister in law told me that whatever I saw and decided on, they backed me up 100%. My wife and I went to Atria for a visit with [name removed] who gave us a tour and introduced us to several of her colleagues patiently answered all of our questions. We signed mom up on the spot. The residents were exceptionally friendly and happy and we know right there and then that we had found just the right place for our mom. At first she was angry with us that we didn't discuss this major with her, but I knew without a doubt that once she settled in she'd tell me "I wish I had made this move years ago. I love everything about Atria! Thanks!

Atria Hillcrest

Everyone is very nice.... the food is not very good. Sometimes the wrong stuff comes out, takes too long and is cold. I would recommend. I do like the homey atmosphere. Everyone I've spoken with is very friendly. They need to improve on the food and wait staff in dining room.

Overall would recommend, but some concerns

So my dad describes the food for the most part as institution food. What irritates him, is if he gets to the dining area may be a little later some of the specials are gone. He firmly believes there should be enough for everyone who wants that particular choice. But on the hole, he says it's good. Something that has happened multiple times and is unacceptable. I have expressed to the director as well as my father and that is, that a staff will knock on the door walk right in and proceed to have a conversation with my dad while he's on the toilet. My dad has all his faculties still continues to write articles for the tribune And this is completely unacceptable.

Atria Hillcrest review

[name removed] was in the memory care neighborhood.. I felt she had great personalized care. The monthly rate was affordable for her budget. One thing I didn't like was there were other people's clothes in her closet on hangers and in her drawers. She was wearing clothes which weren't her

a clean, safe, nice community

My only critique with the care services, is that there isn't any kind of "report card" sent out. It would be helpful to have a report of how my mom is doing, what activities and events she is engaged in, any areas of concern, etc. sent to me on a regular basis. When I call and ask the staff gives me a brief report but it is always initiated by me. Mom says the food is "ok" to "good", never "delicious!")

[name removed] isn't getting the Atria help she needs in a timely manner in contrast to the huge cost. Ways to improve: Find better way than yelling for memory care residents to get attention of scarce helpers. Get [name removed] changed, coffee'd & dressed for breakfast before 11AM (preferably 10:00 AM) in the mornings. Currently, [name removed] starts yelling at 9:00AM but doesn't get help until 12:00PM! Change resident door locks from physical keys to electronic string bracelets which eliminates wrong residents from going into other residents rooms and stealing stuff. Staff from top to bottom has changed over the last 7 months.

would recommend

The staff at Atria Hillcrest are all extremely friendly. Room for improvement: I do think that it would be nice if they offered more excursions (activities off the property) for the residents who are there.

Review for Atria Hillcrest

Run! They can improve by getting, management that actually cares and knows the whereabouts of the residents. Also, some new paint and new carpeting, especially in the resident rooms and better food and no water down juices. I would not recommend this place to other people. It was a horrible experience for my loved ones.

Great Community Overall

I would recommend the community to others. I would make sure that you make sure it is the right fit for your loved one. If you want quick response to questions or concerns, this may not be the place for you. There can be delays due to waiting on doctors; however, the staff that keep talking to you are very friendly. Some requests are not done in a timely manner, and this can be frustrating sometimes. The staff are good at checking on the residents and keeping them safe. There are three meals a day served and there is also a bistro area for the residents to pick up items to take with them.
