What I like the most about GlenBrook is the great help, the friendly and helpful staff. The food is delivered to my room and I like that. The rooms are very good and kept very clean. The activities are excellent, the Activities Director, Lorena, has the BEST Programs for Residents.

The rooms are clean and well cared for. The skilled nursing wing looks more like a hotel facility and most of all there is no medical facility smell . The food is better than expected with many choices. The kitchen staff will go out of their way to find something the resident would like to eat. There are activities through out the day to stimulate the residents. As for the care providers I can't praise them enough. They know their residents and try very hard to accommodate all their needs. The positive attitude is remarkable considering how hard their job is. The Assisted living wing is just as phenomenal. The food is great with many choices, and again the staff will go out of their way to find something the resident would like . The caregivers are positive, and patient. The nursing staff and caregivers are exceptional. If you can get a bed in this facility for your family member, grab it!!!

I'm using Homewatch Caregivers of San Diego, and they're doing an excellent service. The people are great, and I'm very happy with them. Their work attitude is very good. I've had several that they sent out that weren't very good, so I rejected them. They keep giving me people and I finally come up with a good team that works very well with me. They're easy to work with. They provide housekeeping, cooking, cleaning, washing, ironing, assisting with dressing, moving my wife from one place to another, and helping her go to bed, dress and undress. They do practically everything you can think of. We use them seven days a week.

We visited for Mom. The facility was very clean. We went there for lunch, and the food was very good. We loved the fact that you have a menu to pick through, and you could do a salad buffet. The rooms were a reasonable size, and the grounds were really nice. While we were there, they were having a barbeque outside, and a little car show, so most of the people were outside.

Sunrise was wonderful. The environment was cheerful and comfortable, and the rooms were very small but equivalent to other places. The staff was very friendly, kind, and enthusiastic. The dining area was beautiful. I'd like to stay there.

Prices in cities to the north, such as Santa Maria ($4,825), Los Angeles ($4,500) and Oxnard ($4,575), are comparable. Further inland, where real estate prices are lower, assisted living costs less in El Centro ($3,650), Riverside ($3,500) and Bakersfield ($3,150).
Note: Senior care cost data wasn’t available for Carlsbad, so data for the closest city, San Diego, was used.

Monthly senior care costs in Carlsbad range from $1,733 for adult day health services up to $8,517 for semiprivate nursing home care. The significant price difference is due to the type of care offered with each service. Nursing home care involves around-the-clock medical care in a specialized, state-licensed residential facility, while day health services provide nonmedical supervision on weekdays only in a group setting. Assisted living costs between $267 and $299 less than 44 hours of weekly homemaker or home health aide services, and as with nursing home care, assisted living prices include accommodations, meals, home maintenance and most utilities.
