Nursing Homes Community in Pasadena, California

My mother, who suffered from advanced Alzheimer\'s Disease, was a resident at El Molino Rose Villa. It was, by far, the best of the six different care facilities we toured and considered for her. On a quiet residential street in Pasadena, this board and care home is spotlessly clean and designed for maximum comfort. With a maximum of six residents, there is a great deal of personalized care. Owners Andy and Yelli, and their staff of care-givers, know what they\'re doing. They have meticulous attention to detail, are well organized, provide excellent advice and truly act as partners in caring for their residents. Most important, they really love their residents and love what they do. I highly recommend El Molino Rose Villa.

We visited The Terraces at Park Marino. The rooms were pleasant, clean, and well maintained, but the living space was totally inadequate. The staff member who showed me around was excellent. The dining room was beautiful. It's just really not appropriate for us. The patio and the gardens were excellent as well.

Pasadena Highlands was a very nice place. If my mother were younger and in better health, it would be a perfectly fine place for her. They have a lot of good activities. Their facilities are really nice, but it's too big for her. It would be better for a person in better health with a little more mobility. It's a high rise, and it would be difficult because she is 96. I just felt like that was not feasible as far as she was concerned. Otherwise, it would be perfectly good. The rooms were nice-sized and ranged from a studio to a 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom. They were nice. They had everything you could possibly imagine. Even though it was big, it had a very nice outdoor green area, a little bit like a park. It gives you a nicer feeling so you don't feel so institutionalized.

It is clean and safe. They are wonderful and they have a great attitude. It has a very nice atmosphere. The food is good, and the people really care. It is very convenient for me to get there to see my mom. If there is a problem, they take care of it right away. Mom likes the book club, meeting people, and talking. The staff is very helpful. They help Mom, they answer our questions, they look after her, and they call her if she doesn’t show up for breakfast to make sure she's OK. They keep her room really clean, and they change the towels every day and empty the trash. There's nothing nicer I can say about the staff there.

Its rooms and amenities were fine. There were people sitting around watching TV. They had a pool and a hot tub. The dining area seemed fine. The place was refurbished and clean.
