Staff greeted me right away, was friendly and warm. The lobby was very clean and smelled great- I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly birds in the lobby! Danee did a fantastic job showing me the property- I noticed how clean and organized everything was (elegant, warm and bright). She is very easy to talk to, informative and answered all my questions. It feels really good to visit a place where the staff has been there for so long and truly care for their residents (in some cases more than 20 and 30 years!). Overall, I really enjoyed visiting the property, talking to the staff and one of the residents (Vivian). They gave me cookies on my way out and they were delicious! I think this would be a wonderful place for my dad!

She was admitted on March 22, 2024. We intended to get her weaned off the ventilator and back on her feet so she could come home. It has been over a year, and she is not close to coming home. Making things worse, the doctor has no confidence in weaning her off the ventilator; they want to make her comfortable. We found a herbal remedy that may help with her pulmonary fibrosis and COPD. However, the facility will not use it because it is not FDA-approved. Providence Medical Group would rather soak up the insurance and use medication that has not helped than try something outside the box that may help. Providence does not have much compassion.

Then said "next time pack a lunch". THE NERVE! I love and support font line workers but they are absolutely heartless.

The units are very small, about 800 sq. feet. That includes two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a small kitchen and a very small living room, as a comparison our one bedroom apartment is double that size. Some units have been recently renewed, Front desk staff does not know how to use their computer properly, all the times we've been there they couldn't use the sign-up program. Lately we've been just walking in. One thing that I didn't expect is good tasting food, I was expecting hospital-grade and I have to say everything we ate so far was very good. I had a turkey a la king yesterday that was phenomenal.

But I truly had a terrific experience with Jennifer and the staff. Someone gave me some advice about choosing a place. Look at the residents. Do they seem cared for, content.

Ultimately, we have to move on from Peninsula Pointe because the distance from our home and they want us near. Their price point was also surprisingly lower than other places we've been to. I can't say enough about Jennifer. She made the experience pleasant and you really need that as you go through this process.

I didn't want to rush the decision and I was waiting for that feeling of certainty that we'd found the place. I'm so glad that Peninsula Point was on my list! From the start, Jennifer from the marketing department made the experience exceptional. She was warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping us understand what life at Peninsula Point, and assisted living in general, would look like. Her kindness and transparency immediately put me at ease. I also had the chance to meet Julius, the Executive Director, and he was equally amazing. He took the time to answer all of my questions thoroughly and honestly, and even shared his personal cell number so I could reach out anytime as I navigated the process. That level of accessibility and care is rare, and it meant a lot to me. It feels great knowing that Peninsula Point is the right place for my parents, and the best part is, they feel the same way. We're all excited for their move-in date, and I feel confident knowing they'll be in such a supportive, well-run community. Highly recommend Peninsula Point to anyone searching for a truly exceptional assisted living facility!

We lived in our own house in West Torrance since 1971. During the last two years we decided to tour…read moreassisted living facilities in our area and further south. We also were concerned that just taking tours with a sales person was misleading. We were aware that people were leaving one failed facility and going to another with the hope of better treatment. We felt uncertain about leaving our beautiful home and moving into this unknown world. We have been at Cogir of South Bay for just over a month. We are going no further. We are here to stay! We are both overjoyed with our decision. Each day brings us a dining room with our new friends. We all have learned to expect a tasty and attractive looking meal will be presented to us. In our past we only dined so well on special occasions at our favorite expensive restaurants. At dinner time I get my wine. Instead of sleeping in late and watching lots of TV, we attend the 9:30 AM exercise classes in the gym or outside alongside the pool. In addition, we now do our weekly exercises at 1:30 PM inside the heated pool when the sun is strongest. Today the pool water temperature was over 90oF and the air was 73oF. The pool exercises included music and aquatic hardware to enhance our experience. I love my daily swim. Thursdays, before dinner, there is always going to be a singer who performs alongside the bar and also comes up to each of us seated at our table. It already started. We enjoyed our drink from the bar, snacks from the side table, and a bouquet of flowers on our table. A resident took the microphone from the performer and did a few songs that he mastered during his singing lessons. Two couples got up and danced. One of the assistants working for Cogir took the microphone and sang Edith Piaf's famous song and sang it French. My hands were sore with all the applause. There is an exercise room loaded with weights and other typical hardware that I use, a game room where we learned how to play adult dominoes, and an arts and crafts room where my wife just painted a silk scarf under the supervision of a guest artist. And all that was in the past few days. We enjoy the trees, shrubbery and plants that surround every area. They were each planted at their full size. It is a pretty scene when we look down at the grounds from our balcony, day or night. When there is a breeze, it is even more enjoyable. We have a pantry, refrigerator, freezer, stove and microwave that we have not yet used. Why shop, cook and clean-up when your meals are prepared for you? I store my socks and underthings in the empty food pantry. We no longer have monthly TV, electricity, gas, and garbage pickup expenses. Since this place is brand new and all expenses are included, we don't worry about scheduled maintenance and surprise repair bills typical of our 50-year old home. Since I was an engineer I focused on the material parts of Cogir. What make this place run smoothly are the executive director and her staff. The Matre D' in the dining room makes each meal personal. WIth great satisfaction, Dr. Paul and Gretel Lieberman

Unsanitary. Understaffed. Unsafe…read more I moved my mother into the memory care wing of this facility just over a year ago and could not be more horrified by the conditions and lack of care that I witnessed. This includes multiple, documented incidents of: 1. bed bugs infestation 2. gross medication mismanagement (my mother was given a triple overdose of one medication, dispensed another resident's medication, and had her emergency inhaler destroyed without authorization) 3. residents left soiled and neglected 4. serious falls among various residents that resulted in broken hips for two of them 5. constant staff turnover and 6. increased dependence on poorly trained temp workers, etc. Given other glowing reviews, my comments may seem like an outlier. However, it is actually a reflection of the drastic decline of Merrill Gardens in the past 10 months. Despite repeated efforts by myself and other families to address these issues with management and several, separate, filed complaints to the Department of Social Services, leadership has failed to properly respond and course correct. As a result, we have been forced to remove our loved ones and place them elsewhere for their safety and well being. Given how Merrill Gardens treats its most vulnerable residents (those with severe dementia), I would highly discourage anyone from considering this facility; it not only demonstrates their lack of care and quality but also their lack of humanity.

I scheduled a last-minute, evening visit to this facility, and Tracey was extremely accommodating…read more I had asked her the day before if an evening visit was possible as I work during the day, and she made arrangements with her family so she could stay late to do the tour. When I arrived, she was welcoming and had such a positive energy. She showed me the entire facility, including a couple of available room options. She also answered all of my questions candidly, which I truly appreciate. She also brought in Lauren, the Resident Care Director, to provide a preliminary care estimate. Both were very patient and extremely kind, listening closely to my descriptions of my dad's care needs and preferences. I got a definite sense that I could trust Lauren to be accountable for my dad's physical well being based on her descriptions of protocols for the residents' care. The facility is lovely and spotless and is located in a beautiful, tree-lined area of Rolling Hills Estates. It has an upscale vibe, and the residents I observed appeared very happy to be there. It is definitely well worth checking out for your loved one!

A friend of my mothers suggested that we investigate Silverado Rolling Hills after doing 1 month of in-home care, very expensive, and 1 month at a board & care facility, not enough stimulation, and interaction. I am so glad we did. Why the 5-star rating: 1. Safety: Mom feels safe here. She feels she can express her needs; she is seen and is heard. 2. Mental health: Mom has a smile again and back to her sharp wit. 3. Staff: The staff at Silverado RH are terrific. From the front desk crew to maintenance crew, to care caregivers to the activities team to the administrator, everyone is nice, compassionate, competent, and really do care for the residents. I can reach out anytime of day and get a quick answer and get pictures of mom every few days without even asking. 4. Cleanliness: I have yet to drop in on my mom and find her or the facility dirty or the lingering odor of urine. They clean every day, paint walls when they get scuffed by wheelchairs/walkers and make sure any messes are picked up quickly. 5. Activities: There is always something going on, painting with watercolors, live music, wine tasting, drum circle, flower arranging, outside excursions, chair aerobics, bingo, lecture series, manicures, face masks, the list goes on. 6. Community: when you visit, you get to know other residents and their families. The common theme is that their LO is also happy and thriving at Silverado RH. 7. Food: delicious. Friends and family members can join their LO for a meal at no cost. Just give them a heads up and they will save you a seat. 8. Pricing: one price, every month, not ala carte options like many other residents. Only extra cost is for the incontinence package if you opt in for that. Bottom line, mom is thriving, has a great team around her, she feels safe and enjoys her roommate and other residents, some which are birds and dogs. And our family has peace of mind knowing that she is well taken care of. Thank you Silverado Rolling Hills team for helping her and us through this journey.
