My mom's husband recently passed away and my sister and I were in town to go with my mom to various…read moreproperties to check them out to see if she would be comfortable living there. We had a number of appointments scheduled and felt either OK or uncomfortable with the places we toured. Then we found out about fellowship Square. We didn't have an appointment, but thought we would stop by anyhow to see if there was a possibility that we could take an unscheduled tour. Sandra came in to get to know a little bit more of the situation and what things my mom was looking for and to explain the property and amenities. Ultimately, she spent several hours with us. She took us to the dining facility so that we could experience the facility and the food. We were very pleasantly surprised Both by the dining facility and the food and the staff. Our server was Robert and he was absolutely wonderful. He also overheard that it was my mom's birthday the next day and when we finished our meal, he had all of the servers come out and sing happy birthday to her. During the tour, Sandra passed by several of the residence and knew them by their name Which was a very positive Indicator of how the staff treats the residence. The facility itself is very open and full of flowers and fountains and trees And just a very positive place. The apartments themselves are good sized and all of the amenities are wonderful. My sister and I will be very comfortable with our mom living there and it is a place that my mom also feels comfortable about. The fact that they are a 501(c)(3) Nonprofit or organization and a Christian organization was icing on the cake!!

Our registered dietitian prepares a variety of dining options, including low-sodium, diabetic or low- fat (when ordered by the attending physician.) We serve candle light dinner every other Monday, on these evening our residents enjoy a fine dining experience. The Dining Room is a gathering spot for residents and guests. For those who prefer to dine in private, room service is also available. Witch all of it was a lie with the exception of room service it's sad to say that they have no culinary experience whatsoever. They show that they don't care about what they feed the save is wrong. When the people that live here they look forward to most of all they're looking forward to and yet just what everybody thinks about places like this how they don't their mom or their dad or grandma or grandpa for the fear be or not get the same quality as would get at home I do not recommend this place for the Some staff are great and amazing the physical therapy Paul and Tino a really great but the way I know what they're doing to make sure your back to your physical health thank you I hope the corporate office gives me a call. I am a chef. I ran assisted living communities in my career if you need someone to really help you run this place right in the kitchen contact me

My first experience with Devon Gables was when I had my foot amputated…read more I was sent there for Rehabilitation. So I could walk and build strength! The Nursing staff were good, extremely good was a nurses assistant name, LeAnn, very attentive to my needs ! She helped me with the little things that I was not able to do, like plugging in my phone, getting the items I wanted out of my dresser drawer, bringing me new Kleenex, and others things! She even helped me get shaved up! Suzy was really helpful with getting me showered up! The Rehab Team was very helpful too!, especially Paul, Tino and Lisa! They made sure I was able to meet all the requirements of rehab so I could be discharged. Paul however in my personal opinion, went out of his way to keep me enthusiastic and positive about succeeding! ( more on Paul latter) The really bad part about my experience at Devon Gables, is the Food! I'll explain the reason I know about institutional cooking and hospital cooking. I served in the Army as a cook, and cooked for Generals as well as for Troops, exceeding 2500, 3 meals daily in Garrison and in Field Operations, also as a dietary cook in the kitchen at Silas B Hayes Army Hospital at Fort Ord, California. I know food service extremely well, I know the principals of food safety and why it is exceptionally important for the health of the people that are being served. The management nor, the kitchen staff has any functional capabilities of how to provide any of the above traits needed to make dining here pleasureable! We had a meeting with the New Chef/ assistant to the manager, David, and the manager of the Kitchen, Melissa, recently, about the food for upcoming Summer months. Alot of the residents complained about the food, just what I said, overall, they hate it! Breakfast, Dinner and Suppers are at Best!, terrible! The food lacks flavor, eye appeal and, has no smell that can be decifered as appealing as wanting to eat! When meat of any kind is served, it is well overcooked, has no taste as to what it is supposed to be, and usually is dried out. Vegetables are always mushy, no nutritional value at all, broccoli is just the stems, no flower parts! Soups are either so thick with flour or starch thicking and no flavor, or they have to much liquid and no flavor! Alot of patients are diabetic, most of the menus are made up of, noodles, potatoes, and rice, a lot of carbs, and calories! Basically the food is not healthy for the overall population! I've been served food with hair in it, and mold, I contacted the manager about it, and all she does is make excuses about it! The executive Staff cover for the lower management staff, especially when confronted with follow-up to needing something done in our apartments, ( I live here unfortunately because of fixed income) example, it took a year to get our bathroom faucet replaced when the old one broke and the day it was installed, it took five hours to complete! This is my home?, and it looks worse than TJ Mexico, the fences are so worn out, they look disgusting, boards are falling out and even falling as a whole, but when I ask about making our homes look appealing to our family and friends when they visit, if they visit, I'm told it's not in the Budget!, but the front of the office area and the pictures shown on the website are made to look very appealing and the rooms look like a hotel room, but that's far from actuality! where most visitors enter, that area is kept up, but our independent living area and assisted living areas looks terrible! ( Except around the office area) They don't water the grass, trees and bushes are dying off, and again it costs too much to keep it up! When my wife and I first moved in here, it was looking pretty nice, but now it is really shabby! I feel that if you want to have a business that has Health and Rehabilitation it should maintain what they advertise! Not here though! When, I would say, anyone goes looking for a new home or Apartment, Condo or, whatever, They would want curb appeal to be looking nice and kept up, nice neighborhood, professional knowledge Management, appropriately priced, etcetera. I personally believe Devon Gables on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the worst, and, 10 being the best, I'd give a 3, for overall! Believe me, if I had the money to do so, and be able to afford another place I would leave here! This is just My opinion mind you, but talking to others around me who live here, they feel the same way! Another little note, I've seen personally, five people leave here because they died, and three leave just because of the food issues! Remember I said more about Paul! He still comes around to see how I'm doing, says Hi to my wife and asks if there's anything he can do for us! Paul is a real person down to earth individual who genuinely cares about who he provides physical therapy to, but also he is a man that cares about and for all people!

We happened upon SDS when we needed to move my Mom to a 24 hour care Memory Unit, but needed an…read moreindependent unit for my Dad. A place that would allow them to be close and feel safe, supported. The property is lovely, and every single staff member I have come into contact with in the last two weeks is gracious, kind and friendly. It is not easy working in the senior retirement community business... I know as I worked in it for roughly 4 years as an ED. It is even more difficult working in a memory care unit, where aging loved ones are not the same selves they once were and need a lot of care. You have to give a level of trust, and rely on strangers to take care of your loved one the way you would. My Mom was here for roughly 2 weeks, with supplemental hospice care from the time she moved in, until the time she passed. The team in the memory care unit was always amazing to us, and my Mom. We were not there 24 hours mind you, but I observed the other residents being cared for and looked after by all the staff. My Mom was pretty much incapacitated and relied heavily on the kind and gentle care of the team here. Besides the Wellness Director Jackie, who was knowledgeable and kind, there is one lady in particular who was a standout to me. It was such a stressful time, I can't even for the life of me remember her name... but she had an eastern European accent. I felt as though she always took great care with my Mom, making sure she was comfortable and looked after... especially when we were not there.

I truly appreciate the compassion and professionalism they showed, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of extra care and support.

Be advised that when a representative of Peppi's House tells you and your loved one that their goal…read moreis to make them comfortable, their definition of comfortable is being drugged to the point of being comatose. No matter if your loved one is writhing in agony from pain, pleading for the pain to end and/or is barely coherent, or your loved one is very much alert and coherent and is not in agonizing pain, the staff at Peppi's House will drug your loved one to the point of being completely unresponsive. My mom was one such person. She was absolutely 100% alert and as soon as she was transferred from the hospital to this hospice house and I went to visit her, she was comatose. Despite my multiple requests for them to not give her any narcotic, or even a quarter of what they were giving her, they persisted. Multiple employees stated that they were there to keep patients comfortable for as long as it takes, whether it takes two days to two weeks. I found that time line very odd and rather specific. So, there you have it folks, at Peppi's House, expect your loved one to be drugged into a coma (even if that's not what they wanted) and then with no food, or water, or any IV drip, their heart will cease to beat within 2 days to 2 weeks. I find this practice to be despicable and unethical.

We had to move Mom here from Tucson Gardens (was Pacifica senior living)…read more So far, she has been acclimatizing rather well. She has not been a problem for the care givers, other than typical issues associated with Dementia, and our only other issues have been fixable. The maintenance workers and grounds keepers always seem to be hard at work. The heating/cooling unit was acting up. FIXED Closet needed a lock. FIXED The cable was not hooked up. FIXED The windows needed new blinds. FIXED Need new cable box channel changer. In The Works The care givers seem to rotate between Villas, but we have had no issues with any of them. Several of them appear to be "English as second language students", but they have all been helpful and appear to care about the residents. Only one has ever appeared to be annoyed with me, but that was because she was confused by what I was saying. There are Always At Least two people within the Villa. At least one care giver, often two, and the person who cooks and cleans who can help with residents. We were told there is a 1 to 5 ratio of Care givers to residents. MUCH better than the other place! There are only 10 Good Sized rooms in Mom's Villa with only one resident per room. There are 14 or 15 Villas. The activities coordinator seems to try to do a variety of things that appeal to the residents. She has booked musical groups, held art workshops, game days, arranged days when people bring different animals for a type of "petting zoo", and different parties involving the majority of the residents, sort of like a block party. The office staff has always been kind and helpful. The sales manager is an outgoing, sweet lady who went out of her way to find a Good Placement for Mom. The nursing staff was very helpful and appears to be on top of things. So Far, we are pleased with our experience here.
