I highly recommend Forest Hill rehab/ nursing facility in Pacific Grove. My husband was transferred…read morethere from Salinas Valley Memorial hospital in January. We had such a great experience at Forest Hill. . The facility is very nice with view of a well manicured garden. The rooms are large and kept warm and cozy. The staff is kind, caring, compassionate and professional, from Jordan our wonderful case manager and Janet who communicated well and kind enough to order all the necessary equipment needed upon my husband's release. We loved all the wonderful caring nurses, to name a few Josie, Maria, both Isabella's, Nathen, Gordon , Gabie, the friendly PT staff, and all the other kind hardworking staff, house cleaning, kitchen, lundry staff . Thank you again for answering all my question so patiently and caring for my husband Ernie.

Not fresh, all processed- no fiber. Thank god my partner brings food. I asked for help with call button. Nothing yet the nurse was in another room hearing me call out after 20 minutes. Did not even come in to see what's wrong. There's more- stay far away unless you have no choice.

With Personal experience, I can say with certainty that this facility is sorely lacking. The staff…read moreis friendly but overworked. Some residents get excellent care while others are all but ignored. The administration is inexperienced and lacks management skills. The food is awful with some of the worst tasting and poorly prepared food I've ever tasted. No attention is paid to balanced meals or special needs diets. Laundry service is an absolute joke. If someone can be found to wash clothes or bedding, it may take 24 hours or more to have it returned. The longer it takes to be returned the more likely it will be lost. Clothing will quickly deteriorate because no attention is paid to separating colored from whites and high heat is used to dry everything. On the bright side, the campus is beautiful, cleaning is skillfully handled, and there is an engaged activities director. Residents are friendly and easy to get to know.

HORRIBLE PLACE!!! Care is sometimey! Two friends who do not…read moreknow each other had a parent residing at this facility. They BOTH pulled their parent out and placed in another facility. Mom moved from one bad place to another. She will not move again as this second move experience was AWFUL!! One of the things that sold us was wheelchair transportation to/from appointments. We informed them that her doctors were in Monterey and it wasn't until she was all moved in and deposit/rent paid that we were informed she would need to get new doctors as they don't transport to Monterey AND there is NOT wheelchair transportation. The only transportation they have is in a car that the resident has to transfer to/from chair to get in vehicle. Well this didn't go well with another resident. There was only one person transferring her to the car and the resident fell, shattered her ankle and broke her leg and will require a skin graph to cover the area. We were informed after Mom fell "with assistance" that she would require a two person assist. This only happened once when she came back from the hospital after this particular fall. I could keep going but not sure if all will be read. STAY AWAY FROM MADONNA GARDENS IF YOU FINANCIALLY CAN AFFORD ANOTHER FACILITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They work endlessly to provide a positive atmosphere in a beautiful setting. The meals are carefully planned for the individual needs of the six residents with delicious results. The aroma of Marium's savory cooking welcomes family and friends. Many extras are included; such as doctor's and hospital visits which ease the burdens of the family as Agape has the adequate equipment to preform such tasks. Agape and its nearby "sister home" Flanders Court are both very special places for loved ones who will receive better care then they could get at home which is ill prepared to provide full time care. I highly recommend both homes.

My wife and I moved into Carmel Valley Manor ten years ago and it was the best decision we could…read morehave made. We were relatively young, 67 and 72, but we decided that it was important for us to find a place where we could live for the rest of our life in a secure and active community. We were impressed with the beauty of Carmel Valley, the sunny weather and close proximity to all of the attractions of the Monterey Peninsula. What became more apparent after our move in was the amazing sense of community and love of life that fills our lives here. The residents are active with a multitude of sports, games, special musical events, concerts, fascinating guest speakers, continuing education, painting, weaving, photography, plays, trips to local and bay area cultural events and many, many more. We are never bored and have made many friends which we cherish. We realize, that as we get older everything is in place for us to stay active and independent and when we need assistance it is always available. Equally important, our children are happy that they don't have to worry about us, can visit and stay in the on site guest units and will never be burdened with the trauma of trying to find a place for us in the event of stroke, or other major disabling illness, We like the fact that all facilities, independent, assisted care and the Skilled Nursing Facilities are all co-located allowing spouses who may be recuperating from treatment to take meals and visit together without worrying about transportation to an off site facility. I guess to sum it up. They seem to have thought about everything. Even the staff is like family, providing loving and attentive service every day. For us it's a great value and source of peace for our future. We are thankful every day that we decided to live here in a complete "Life Care Community" where our every need is provided for in all situations that may arise.
