HIGH PRAISE FOR A WONDERFUL FACILITY!

My mother-in-law had an extended stay at Avocado Creek - she thrived at this first-class facility for 14 months.. She was incredibly well cared for by the owner ([name removed]) and her staff during her entire stay - visits always found "Mom" clean and properly dressed. We were greeted warmly - the staff would provide a report on her condition - they knew EXACTLY how she was from how well she slept to what she ate during her previous meals. There was the feeling of content among the residents who were generally gathered in the main living room. The food was excellent; as Mom declined in her ability to manage herself, the staff would take whatever time was needed to feed her. The home was bustling but always calm; the grounds were set up for outdoor visits which made it easy for us to bring our dog to visit! The entire family is grateful for the wonderful care she received.

Awesome place - would highly recommend.

I loved avocado creek - it was an awesome place. Everyone there was so nice to me, my husband and brother. The care they gave to my mom was super. She was always clean, well fed, and comfortable on her bed. The food that was prepared was very good. My mom liked it a lot. The house was spotless every single day. I could not have been more happy and grateful to have such a special place for my mom.

This was a nice community. There was no nighttime care. This would be good for more independent residents.

A happy place to be

While my Mother was here, it was a wonderful facility. It seemed like a really happy place to be. All of the staff members were happy to be there and they were attentive to my mom’s needs. It’s a very clean facility and they do the laundry every day. They don’t really offer any planned activities and I needed to bring things like puzzles or games for her to do. There are only 12 residents here and most of the people here have dementia and are in wheel chairs. My mom had her own room with a TV and a private bathroom. I really like that this facility does not have an odor to it and it doesn’t smell like bleach. I would recommend this community to other families.

Small intimate residential care facility that really cares

This residence, its owner, and its staff needs to be recognized for the great care it gives to its residents. Here's our story, I hope it will be helpful to others: Our family found this small intimate residence at the last minute and to our good fortune, when our 88 year old mother required 24 hour care upon her impending release from a skilled nursing facility. Mom was in her final year of Alzheimer's and required round the clock help management of her incontinency, assistance with almost all her activities of daily living ADLs, and now required contact assistance any time she moved. [removed], the on site owner manager, and [removed] her care manager understood my mother's needs, and as time passed we couldn't believe how lucky we were to have found this residence. My mother's needs were not only provided for but anticipated. Mom's incontinence was always proactively and well managed no matter when we visited. [Removed] were on top of mom's every medical need and alerted us so we could be proactive on mom's behalf too. I could rely on their contacting me when Mom needed anything. Often there were extra efforts made for us: when phone conversation was difficult for mom, [Removed] would assist me with her own cell phone, showing mom the photos I texted to [Removed] phone, and then [Removed] would text me photos of mom back to me. Special photos and special memories. The other residents appeared well cared for as well, they often chatted with us during visits and kept my mom company around the community table or by the TV. The home was always clean, and the only smells wafting through were those of cooking food. Mom and other residents were always treated with dignity, affection and good humor. In mom's final month [Removed] insistence on Light Bridge hospice care was crucial, and Lightbridge provided the wonderful nursing care she said they would. When my mom was passing, [Removed] and their staff hovered over mom and us. My brothers, my-sister-in laws and I all felt their care and affection for mom and we hold [Removed] and Avocado Creek in very high regard. We would recommend their residential care to anyone.  Elder care is a vocation for [Removed] and [Removed], and these ladies are both gifted.

A Happy Home for Mom

I truly believe that Avocado Creek is the perfect home for my 97 year old Mother. I had been taking care of her at my home for 9+ years when my doctors discovered cancer & I needed immediate surgery. I had only a short time to find a home, but Avocado had people who were alert, active, happy and friendly. Many other homes were clean but dismal and the people were not happy. The staff works hard to provide a clean, friendly environment with special attention to those who need it, when they need it. I would highly recommend it to anyone who needs a happy place for their relative.

The person that owns this community was not available and the helper had to give me a tour. The helper did not have all the answers to a lot of my questions. It was not a good job.

Safe and caring place

I was very concerned as a daughter finding the right place for my mom. You here so many horror stories. My mom is totally dependent on me so I was so terrified but this place has been so safe for my mom. Advocado creek has been a Godsend for me and my family.The owner Maya has lived up to her word. She treats her patrons the way she would want her own family treated. She is fair and honest and she has gone above and beyond to help my mom. I will forever be greatful to her. Her primary caretaker is Dana. I love her! She takes such good care of my mom and that is so important to me. I go see my mom 3 to 4 times a week. The place is always clean and the other patrons look well care for too. I would recommend this place to anyone. Sincerely Douglas Family

This house is in a rural part of Escondido, and sits up on a hill with a view, and a nice breeze. Every room has a ceiling fan, and a French door onto the wrap around walkway or patio. Rooms are really nice - very clean home in every respect and Director is a true professional
