Pacifica Senior Living South Coast

Staff were friendly - although they were constantly short staffed. They need more staff for patient support and care so you do not have to wait hours for help.

Excellent Caring Staff

I was most impressed with the quality of your staff, doing the care. Everyone I encountered was very pleasant, helpful, and always trying to do their best and even go beyond! My mom was in the memory care section, which is much more demanding and difficult on the staff. My hat goes off to all of them, their jobs are not easy.

Experience at Pacifica Senior Living South Coast

My father passed away on [date removed]while he was at Pacifica Senior Living. I was lucky to be with him at the very end. I appreciate all the guidance, education and compassion A Place for Mom provided me during this challenging time in my life. Everyone at Pacifica Senior Living was so kind to my father and incredibly helpful to me as I navigated this unfamiliar path of helping my father in his last days. I felt we were treated with respect and compassion across all the coverage shifts. When I left my father at the end of each day, I knew the staff was going to do their best to keep him safe and taken care of. It gave me peace-of-mind knowing someone else was invested in the my father's care as much me.

This is a memory care facility?

Admission was not organized; ex. they notified us we needed to buy a bed 2 days, this was troublesome to arrange short-notice. We witnessed admit-documents were whited-out & reused, in front of us. Lacked hand-hygiene esp'lly communal areas. Caregivers are friendly when you approach them. Yet for a new resident, staff should be given more attn since needing to orient; mom said she would get lost & ask to toilet. We understand some "hiccups" to establish the routine would occur, but sorry to state, not like this; we are disappointed. Friend visited & felt the same.

Nice place. Too expensive for my budget. Need better food options, clean and nice staff. Staff willing to work with you on budget but I just couldn’t afford it anymore.

A great place to live.

Pacifica is a wonderful facility, have only had super positive experiences with the staff. My only suggestion is that they have more activities, and especially get their senior van ready for use so that the residents are able to get out more. Oh yes I would absolutely recommend this community to other families and I already have! Pacifica is amazing and our whole family is so happy that my mom and the kids grandma is in good hands.

Review for Pacifica Senior Living South Coast

The people staff at Pacifica are very friendly and helpful. However, there are simply not enough of them. Also, the business office seems very disorganized - especially regarding billing and electronic communications. Overall, Pacifica has been helpful but my father often has to wait a long time for assistance.

Short-term stay

My mom recently stayed at Pacifica for two weeks, to continue her recovery from a trip to the ICU. We had zero experience with facilitues like this, so we were a bit nervous about it. Plus, my mom likes her privacy. The folks at Pacifica were so welcoming! They were friendly and helpful, and my mom settled in really well. They went the extra mile to accommodate her meal requests, and tried to make her feel at home. It was a great experience. We would not hesitate to use Pacifica again.
