Savant Senior Living

Stacie's amazing. Unfortunately, the price she quoted me for the apartment that would suit my parents best is still out of their price range. I may still try to get them to visit tomorrow and see if we can work out a deal.

As in all places, some caregivers are better than others. a few policies have recently changed relating to feeding times. The food is almost all pre-prepared and then reheated. "Home cooked" would be an improvement. The medical staff is excellent.

The only problem was that they had started to raise the prices beyond what I could afford. The people and staff where very nice. The food was very good, but the reason I left was the price. They’re real nice though.

The staff goes out of their way to be friendly and helpful, all while maintaining professionalism. The caring for the clients goes beyond just doing their job - they truly care. They are prompt and attentive and treat their clients like adults - with respect and dignity. They greet each client by name every time they pass in the hall, ask how they can be of help yet give people their privacy. From the director who leads with grace and care, to the nurse and med staff who listen and gently tend to their patients, to the dining staff who prepare and serve each delicious meal, to the housekeeping & maintenance staff who treat the facility like its their own home and the clients like family - the quality of care shows.

Lovely property. The staff was extremely friendly but it appears that only certain people are granted full access to be able to answer the appropriate questions relating to pricing and placement - this can be a bit of an inconvenience. My mother and I had the pleasure to visit and also had lunch. was adequate. the kindness of the staff makes this place exceptional, but the lack of knowledge and returned calls from lower staff members was disappointing. Stacie is beyond awesome! Overall, excellent service and nice property!

So far everything has been great. She seems to be happy. So far I've been pretty impressed with it. When it comes to the care services, I'm not there, I can't really comment on those. I think the activities are lacking a little bit, she goes down but doesn't participate much. There doesn't seem to be many outings as when we first saw it, that could be because of the time of year. She feels very safe there. Part of why we chose this was the affordability and it had all the criteria I was looking for, for her. It seemed to meet all of her needs.

nice. no security around grounds. $1595/studio 3rd flr.

Could work for us. I like that you can transfer to another Emeritus without a new community fee.

I know they're starting a renovation soon. The furnishings and décor are a little outdated but the are fixing that in the renovation. The rooms are a nice size and the food is excellent. They have tai chi classes, exercise, current events, they bring in, for the holidays, different religious leaders to lead services. My dad is very happy there.

Good overall vibe - very clean and tidy - jewish community - will mom be ok there? $3500 with bathing and meds - $1500 deposit could be $3000 if bathing and meds not needed

If they had a spokesperson or a go between between the RNs/LVNs and us because he was so far along, further along than we realized, and it wasn't like he was abled bodied so to speak, so it would have been betterr to have someone there to help. Maybe we could have paid for more care to get there, we were there such a short time we couldn't really develop that relationship. The care was good, we just didn't have enough time. The only thing that was a hint of [removed] if you're new to places you're just kind of lost, they don't have a greeter or somebody to teach you how it's all going to go down. They have somebody that sits down with you at first but he's more of the financial guy. I know more about senior communities than I ever wanted to know.

Overall it's been a very positive experience. I think the people that work there are just terrific and really care about the residents. They're actually in the process of renovating so it's kind of hectic but I saw some of what they're doing and it's going to be even nicer than it is. This is our first experience with assited living or independent living. My mother complains that the meal time is too short and too early but otherwise, her room is really very nice and the facility is nice. The staff is incredibly helpful so overall it's been very positive. Part of why we chose this is the location is very close to the UCLA medical facilities so my mom can walk to a lot of her doctors and in terms of what you can get in Santa Monica it's a tremendous value, very affordable.

Nice staff, helpful, new director is personable, well-run facility with good communication between staff and resident's family. Food is boring and repetitive.

Absolutely Wonderful! I think that they're trying hard to satisfy their guests and it's just a very positive place to be. There is an activities director that lead exercises and games and they do outings. My mom is in a wheelchair so she doesn't get on the bus much but they also provide the bus to take them to the doctor or whatever. They have religious people come in and do services or read the bible which my mom appreciates. My mom likes it pretty well. She's much happier than the last place and she's more communicative.

This would have been a great place for them......but again, they are not licensed correctly to take my parent's long term care policy....

2500-1bed

just right for her but no evening activities....still not sure if she can manage without one to one care at night.

Liked the owner and long term employee I met very much. Like the location. Rooms/bathrooms were best I've seen in first couple days. Extremely active building, possibly overwhelming to a newcomer.

Friendly and dedicated staff. Seemed to provide the most value of the places seen so far. If more advanced dementia care is needed, the transition is easy. A one month trial visit is available.

This is very nice. It is being completely remodeled.
