I was not impressed at all with Hospice of North County and do not recommend at all. My father was…read moreon hospice for 4 months and not once did the doctor visit him. Meanwhile we used this hospice 4 months before for my brother inlaw and the doctor visited him because my husband is a doctor.Nursing care was only twice a week and some of the nurses were rude. We wanted my father to use the hospice house in the last days. But they said it was unavailable. Very strange. I'm so suspicious of these hospices. Meanw hile I'm always getting letters from this hospice to donate $$. I would never use this hospice again.

I cannot say enough positive things about this organization. I had personal experience with three…read moreother hospices, and there is nothing like Hospice of the North Coast. Let's start with Amanda who bolted into action to help me get my brother out of the hospital and into Pacifica House, the Hospice home they own. This woman moved mountains. I was a mess after dealing with Vitas Hospice and the hospital. She was just amazing all the way! ALL of the staff and doctors are just fantastic! This is what hospice once was before corporate greed took over. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Gretchen, the nurse that was assigned to our home, was very communicative, open to all our questions, and treated my grandmother with so much kindness. My mom relied heavily on Gretchen to guide her through properly caring for my grandmother. Her attentiveness and competency were paramount to making my grandmother as comfortable as possible during her final months. Aida was assigned to help bathe and clean my grandmother twice a week. Her presence was not only comforting to my grandmother, but was a huge help to my mom who was her primary caretaker. Aida treated my grandmother with dignity, and I remember how happy and peaceful she was after receiving Aida's care. Thank you again Vista Hospice Care, our family will never forget all you did for our dear grandmother.

I actually found this place 3 months ago for my mother. Mom had recently had a stroke and was…read moregoing through a really rough time and the staff there was beyond wonderful and welcoming during this transition. I could fill 1000 pages with specific praise for this place but let me just cover the best of the best. I will start with "Management"... I will start with the top: The Executive Director, Karen Enciso has that rare blend of business savvy, compassion and emotional intelligence. She runs a very tight ship but does so with grace and poise and it's apparent she cares for all of her residents, families, and staff. Karen is always available and responsive when needed. My mother thinks the world of her and for good reason. The nursing management and staff are kind and competent and always ready to help. These professionals have saved my mother's life on several occasions and I am humbled by how hard they work to keep their elderly residents feeling safe and cared for. The great part about this place is that they also offer a great Memory Care Program. If my mother ever needs that specific service, I am confident that she will be well taken care of. The community is always clean and fresh when I visit my mother and we just enjoy those fresh cookies the receptionist bakes daily. I shopped around and Emeritus at Oceanside offers the best bang for our buck. You can find slightly less expensive places but they are not up to standard in my opinion. You can pay much more and not do any better. I thank God for guiding me to this place, I can now sleep better knowing that my mother is in good hands. I give this place all the stars in the sky. Alot of love and respect, A Satisfied Daughter

The activities director truly cares that the residents are treated with dignity and are enjoying themselves. The director is constantly making improvements, taking the suggestions of families and residents to heart. They have actually gotten to know her personally and I feel confident that they want the best for her. I have worked in Alzheimer's facilities and know the difference between a mediocre facility and a good one... This is honestly the best, most caring one I've been in.

Comfort and Peace Hospice was recommended to me by an ICU nurse at Scripps Encinitas when my mom…read morewas being discharged from 7 days of intensive care she barely survived. My mom had previously been on hospice care with a different company and Comfort and Peace is head and shoulders superior to my previous experience. First of all, the speed of their responses and preparation for her discharge (over the holidays no less) was epic. I am so grateful for not only their responsiveness to us, but also the care and time they took to really get it right! They even helped me with facility placement recommendations Each function has been consistently responsive and communicative, as well. Nurse, social worker, etc. The team has directly contributed to my ability as a caregiver to function and deal with a difficult situation. No hesitation whatsoever giving my highest recommendation here

Elsa and staff were friendly, detailed and professional. Owner, David Cooper, was often present to say "Hello" and ask if all was good. We definitely made a wise decision for the benefit of everyone in our family. Thanks to everyone at The Gardens by the Sea! J&J

I have never written a bad review before, but I have had such a poor experience with this company…read morethat I felt the need to share. Since my dad has dementia, we asked for a caretaker that is experienced in dementia-specific care. During the intake, I told the team that experience should be the top priority over anything. Instead, we had a "kind-of" experienced person come to train somebody who literally had their first day in the industry in our home. This guy didn't even know how to help my dad change his pull-ups when he was still mobile. Very simple stuff that frankly I've never been trained on myself, and have no business training him on. This theme continued throughout the time we were with them, and it ultimately became more work to have their caretakers in the home. We also paid a premium for dementia-care, but obviously the person who is brand new is not providing that value. We stayed with them until my dad was hospitalized. We need 30+ hours per week of care since then, and we actively avoided bringing them back because they were no help. They are also extremely disorganized as an organization. The care is the main reason we stopped working with them, and the admin & accounting teams have made sure we don't even explore other caretakers with them. Working with this company has been a headache, and I would suggest looking at other agencies for a significantly better experience.
