(Days were good) Dad needed more rehab than nursing care and OT/PT was awesome. Melissa and Theresa stood out, they were very engaged with my dad challenging and encouraging him nonstop and they stayed consistent with him. He always talked positively about them. Marlene I believe her name was as a RNA that was good. Pawan was very attentive as well even though I don't think he was really assigned to his room. Appreciated him. Amy in the dining room was so attentive my dad didn't care for her in the beginning but he quickly learned she was just persistent and was looking out for him. Jamil I think his name I was also good. Brandi comes to mind too. Areas they could improve in was not just response time to red button sometimes taking 30-45 minutes but also many times they would come and ask what was needed but didn't return with what my dad would ask. Some (guys) were also rough with my dad and he would call them out. I think they thought he was out of it? Many times my dad would need to use the restroom and they would tell him to just go in his diaper. This happened A LOT. I had to speak up multiple times saying he needed to practice transfers and get on the toilet. It was obvious they just didn't want to do it. Also he was to get up for each meal and I'd catch him in bed many times and they would say "oh he didn't want to" and my dad would say "I was never asked". I should and would expect patients CNAs to just do it every time making the most of patients time there. Seeing or talking to a doctor was a lot harder than it should have been. Maybe they had staffing shortages but this place has a lot of potential if they were just more consistent with care.

This is a copy of a letter to Remington Clubs Business / Corporate office sent February 25, 2025…read more My Father moved out of Remington on February 20, 2025: I am writing you to express my complete disappointment as to the services he received at Remington since his move in date of September 2023. First, I want to start off with the issue of someone entering my father's locked apartment (with a security key) on December 31, 2024, at approx. 9:45pm. When I spoke to you about this incident the following day (January 1, 2025) you assured me that a few things would happen immediately; first his locks would be changed ASAP (that never happened) and I would receive a call from the "Executive Director" of Remington the following day, of course, that never happened either. I never got a follow up call from your office as to what happened with these promises. I understand after a conversation with a resident from the fourth floor that someone came into his apartment (uninvited) with a security key on or about 3:45pm January 28 or 29th. It appears the security of the residents is somewhat lacking. Also, the housekeeping staff that "cleaned" my father's apartment on a weekly basis did a very poor job. Quite frankly given the amount of money he spent on rent we would have expected a higher level of service. Speaking of rent, the issue of him being overcharged for two months after my mother went to Memory Care in November was completely unacceptable, especially when we were given written assurances that it would be taken care of immediately after the first month (reference my letter dated December 23, 2024). FYI, we notified your office a few days after she entered memory care that she no longer would be a resident of Remington yet it took over two months for it to be resolved. Regarding the elevator issue in my father's building that was inoperable from November through the first part of January; it is hard to believe how Remington allowed residents of that age group (and health) to be inconvenienced in that way. In addition, there were several times his AC was not operable during a heat wave and staff was unresponsive - not to mention he had to spray his unit for bugs. Also, we were assured that his carpet would be cleaned once a year - of course that never happened. This certainly does not reflect the "Five Star Living" your company advertises. The one area where Remington did excel was the food service, which for a Senior Facility, was exceptional. Also, the serving staff was very patient and attentive to the residents, however, literally everything else there, all aspects of the service and the age / condition of the apartments considering it's 2025 now, was very sub-par given the price point. Finally, I read a review on Yelp from a Tawny Lysak (dated November 2024) that reflects her unease over the treatment her mother received at Remington's Club II in October 2024. I understand there are two sides to a story but given the staff's inaction on several fronts I believe every word of that review. Rest assured I will post this letter word for word on as many review portals for Remington Club as possible. Thank you. Robert Fusco

I would give zero stars if I could. Our loved one with Alzheimer's was here for one month. Why?…read moreBecause she got out, mid-day, and no one noticed. Thankfully, a Good Samaritan noticed an elderly woman with a walker headed down Midland St. in Poway. Sunview Gardens was ill-eqipped to care for her. The owner knew she had Alzheimer's and even assessed her! She had no problem opening the gate around the perimeter of the house. It is a very small facility; the staff definitely should have been paying closer attention. In addition, we hired a third party care-giver to stay with her overnight one day/night. This person notified us that a caregiver at Sunview literally yelled at our loved one for coming to the breakfast room before it was time. Stay away from this place if your loved one needs Memory Care.

My 84-year old mother, who's suffering from congestive heart failure, did not have the opportunity…read moreto stay at Sunview Gardens, as she was rejected by the proprietor, Felicity. About a month ago, I got the call from mom that no son wants to hear. "Son, I can't stand up". Mom ended up going to the hospital via paramedics where it was determined that she had previously undiscovered congestive heart failure. She already had crippling osteoarthritis, which we knew, but we didn't know mom's ticker was bad. After hospitalization, she spent several weeks in a skilled care facility. We started in search of an assisted care facility. Now understand that mom does have a budget, so it's fair to say that while we can spend some money, this is not a "money is no object" situation. Also, understand that I've been a businessman for over 30 years and I do believe in negotiation, where appropriate. The party on the other side can say yes, no, or meet you in the middle. I visited Sunview Gardens and I thought it was aesthetically quite nice. Felicity seemed like a strong businesswoman, and I can respect that as a businessman. We found a room that we liked and I thought we had agreed on a price, subject to an evaluation of my mother. I also liked the fact that Felicity told me that they did not have a community fee. We got close to admission time and were working on scheduling a day and time to evaluate my mother. Felicity messaged me and told me that she could not do the price that I thought we had agreed upon. Um...okay. Didn't like that, but I didn't spend a lot of time debating it either. Wasn't thrilled, but it wasn't necessarily a deal breaker either. She asked to e-mail me a message, so we could be "clear on fees and charges". In the e-mail, she mentioned a $1,000 non-refundable administrative fee and a $1,000 deposit which would become non-refundable if mom couldn't move in by Monday (this message was received on Wednesday afternoon). These fees were new to me and had not been previously discussed. Again, I did not rule anything out, but I was caught a bit off guard. I was willing to give her a deposit, that day in fact, but wasn't loving the "non-refundable" aspect of it. Further, I had not previously seen a non-refundable "administrative fee" as high as $1,000. The other similar facilities were no more than $500 and one or more were at zero. I asked Felicity, and this is a direct quote, "Also, do you have any flexibility on your $1000 administrative fee? When we looked at other places, the highest fee that we saw was $500, and one of them had no administrative fee." Her reply? "Hi Brad, I am not comfortable with all of this bargaining on our fees. I think it is probably better to find a facility more in your budget range. As you know, there will be level of care increases in the future, should your mom decline. thank you for stopping by and seeing our facilities. Wish you the best in finding a place that is more suited to her budget". So she made the decision to reject my mother and of course I was rather annoyed by it. It's her right to do that, and it's my right to be unhappy about it. The facility is aesthetically nice. My sister wailed like a baby upon learning that my mother's admission request was rejected. Both my mother and I believe that it was a blessing in disguise. While I wish her the best, in turn, I must offer a less-than-ringing endorsement of Sunview Gardens. I respect her right to make business decisions, but I do not have to like the decisions nor the way that she makes them. I also wanted to respond to my sister's ridiculous "counter-review". I did find a nearby room with a private bath, far, far more impressive gardens, zero community fee, zero admin fee, $500 fully refundable deposit and we were told to "take our time" about moving in. I sense that mom is going to get a much higher level of care from a team that I trust. Oh, and they came down $1000 per month. That's called "negotiation", and the owner is "honored" to have my mother stay there. My sister gets caught up on on aesthetics. Cute place. Cute little dog. She had this bizarre little fantasy about visiting her mother there around Christmas. Reality check Laura, it ain't going to happen. This lady rejected your mother. There's absolutely nothing wrong with negotiation. There's absolutely nothing wrong with politely asking about fees that are plainly out-of-line with the competition. Instead my sister attempts to justify them and Felicity's actions. How's that for loyalty? As a side note, as of this writing, there are zero dementia patients at the facility where my mother is going. Only very sharp residents. One was a professor who graduated from Oxford University. And unlike the situation with Felicity, I actually trust the owner and the husband and wife care team that will be looking out for our mother.
