My mother in law was moved in here from Ridgecrest General Hospital in January '24 (she was 93…read morethen...and she's now 94!) She was long term. We have no complaints about how she was treated. They worked to keep her in a bed by a window. They sent her to the hospital when they felt she needed it. (it's just down the street! She had a TVAR and a pacemaker put in which helped her so much with breathing) The PT/OT staff were able to. nudge her to do more than she thought she could. We paid to continue after Medical ended and glad we did. She was kept clean and well cared for. Recently she was diagnosed with Covid and isolated. She got depressed and stopped eating and taking her meds. My husband called every day and worked with the staff, and they helped him Face Time her to cheer her up. It's a busy facility being near the hospital and getting a lot of short term care clients. We hesitated moving her up near us because she was getting such good care and thriving. But once she started getting depressed, we knew we needed to move her up here (see Sunny View Care Center). On the day she was transported, staff came in to say goodbye to her. They really cared about my mother in law and her health and happiness. Hubby & I looked at a lot of care centers (skilled nursing facilities) up here in Silicon Valley. We saw quite a variety. One important thing is how well do they keep the facility. AVCC is clean and well maintained. Nitpicks - There were only restrooms in the front lobby area...and staff uses them as well. Once a visitor or resident was using one of them as her private phone booth which was frustrating. Mother in law liked the food at first but then she thought it was so much better than what she was getting in Ridgecrest. Eventually, she started grumbling that it was dog food. (She's feisty) All the food we saw her get was well made. But it's hospital food. There weren't any choices that I know of. One of her hearing aids disappeared. No one knows where or why, but the staff took ownership and are working with my husband to pay the replacement cost. Parking was reasonable that we found along the sides. Everyone we interacted with was polite and kind (just way overworked)

My family realized that although our parents were very healthy and living independently in their…read morerural mountain home of 30 years; it was becoming too much for them to care for. We wanted to move them to a place that was closer to us and where they could still feel they were living independently but have help with daily care, if they needed it. My parents were in their 90's!! As the years they lived at the assisted living facility went by, they needed more and more care. (Prestige) now BELLAMAR adjusted to their level of care needs seamlessly. What we liked mostly was that the staff genuinely loved our parents. Our parents loved them back!!! One year ago my mom suddenly passed away. Now, a year later at age 97 my dad passed. Our last years with our folks were wonderful because we knew they were well taken care of by competent care givers who REALLY cared!! The facility was clean, the food was delicious, and they helped out medical appointments and transportation. They have fun social gatherings where my parents met new friends. Sadly, my dad's last days were in hospice care. He could not make his rounds at social events. The Staff checked on him and truly cared for him hourly before he left this Earth. I can't say enough great things about BELLAMAR!! I highly recommend this assisted living facility!!

He kept us informed every step of the way and was always responsive...no matter what we needed, he made it happen quickly and with empathy. We had round-the-clock care with two nurses each day, and every one of them was exceptional. They brought not only medical expertise, but also a calm, kind presence that made an incredibly difficult time just a little easier. These are the people you want surrounding your loved one, and your family, when you're facing the emotional weight of saying goodbye. We're so thankful to have had them by our side.

He is friendly, caring and actually wants you happy and healthy. I never feel rushed and he is a great listener. In 2009 I obtained APL Leukemia. I was transferred to Kaiser Sunset and was assigned to Dr Roberto Rodriguez. I couldn't have gotten a better oncologist!! I actually got a second opinion from outside Kaiser. And that doctor who I saw looked puzzled and asked why I was seeing her. I simply said, well it's a terrible illness and would just like a second opinion to make sure I am getting the best care possible. She smiled and told me that she has already dug through all my treatment notes and assured me that I was getting the best care possible. Then added, the reason why I was confused was because Dr Rodriguez was my teacher oncologist!! And she also added that he is "the go to doctor for all leukemia cancer questions. Not just California but in the entire United States. There is nobody better than he!" Wow! That made me feel a lot better!! Lancaster Community Hospital (closed now-it's now Palmdale Regional) doctors told me that I "had only a 30-40% chance of surviving. That's before I was transferred to Kaiser Sunset and was seen and hospitalized by Dr Rodriguez. When I told him what the other doctor said from Lancaster Community, he was shocked and disappointed that these doctors told me that. Dr Rodriguez said, "Kevin, I can assure you that you will be walking out of this hospital on your own free well and you will be either completely in remission or on your way there!" And he was correct! I was hospitalized for three months and got an infection. This caused me to return back and had to stay for another two months. But I have been in remission since 2010. Just like he said, I walked out in remission!! I say all this to tell you that the front line of doctor's can be difficult to find one that works well with you. But keep trying. But the second line which I refer to them as are the specialists and I have found that each one is really good at what they specialize in. I have had PPO's as well as HMO's... and I wouldn't want to have any other medical insurance. They can be pushy about the flu shot and other vaccines. But they have even gotten better at the high pressure with that now. So I would recommend Kaiser to someone that was looking for a health care provider.

HE was a key component in my recovery and made me feel quite comfortable at home exercising because of his expertise in guiding my custom exercise program.
