Tharon Management

It is expensive and the family needs to provide toiletries and depends if needed. They will call an ambulance at the drop of a hat and you may have ambulance bill. Says it is all inclusive, but that is not 100% true.

This facility has been great so far, especially compared to some of the other places that we've had experience with. The level of care here is great. Everyone is very friendly and on top of things, all of the staff are great. Housekeeping is done once a week and is very thorough. Communication with the family is good, they communicate a lot and keep me updated. Overall, it's been a very good experience. I would absolutely recommend this facility to friends and family.

Sierra Vista to us felt more like a hospital rather than senior living. Very sterile. We were there on a Saturday and we barely saw any residents, there was not much going on. I did like that they had cabanas with yards, those were nice. It is a smaller facility so there are less residents and activities. The people were all super friendly, it was just not what we were looking for.

Overall, the staff are very caring. They care for the residents very well and seem to be very loving people. The way the keep the community running is very nice, and it's very secure. My mom complains about how often they serve green beans, but she also doesn't tell them she wants something else, which I feel like they would try to accommodate if she would tell them.

It's a pretty good place. They do try their hardest to take care of the patients. The staff are very friendly. It looks like there are plenty of good activities. Sometimes we've had trouble with the night shift not changing our loved one's diaper right away, which caused breakouts and sores that have since healed after some time. Overall it's a pretty decent place for the price. They, like many other places, are just understaffed right now.

What we really like about The Gardens is one individual will be assigned to your loved one to care for them, but if your loved one ever needs help any staff members from the director to the maintenance team will assist. They are all so attentive and helpful. Even in the most difficult situations they seem to really be able to handle things in a very professional way. There is musical entertainment there and church services and we would recommend this community to other families.

The property is older, but well maintained! I really like that Sunlit Gardens has different buildings for different stages of dementia that you can move between depending on your needs. The food choices are good. The staff is caring, but they are a bit understaffed. Activities are pretty good, but there's nothing for the memory care residents in the evening - so there's a lot of blank time. They have far less amenities than the newer larger places, but what they do have is well done. They have great pricing and in general we're happy!

There are very friendly staff here who went the extra mile for my loved one and her needs.

We had a very pleasant tour with Crescendo Senior Living. The reason we did not choose this facility was because it is two stories and we wanted someplace that was all on one floor.

Our family had an in person tour experience and it was a good tour it was a top contender. The room they had available was a nice two bedroom, with a separate dining room and living room. It was a nice community.

Overall I thought The Lakes at Banning was very nice. It was clean and all of those things. The people were very nice. For my personal taste, it was kind of dark in there with the furnishings and things. So it just didn't appeal to me. We didn't get to try the food here, but having moved into a different community, I would recommend that anywhere you go you try the actual food the residents are being served, if you can.

They do a great job keeping the community very clean and the staff members are super friendly. The meals look wonderful and our loved one says the food is pretty good. The activities director [name removed] is a wonderful enthusiastic young gal, she is always encouraging the residents to get our of their rooms and get involved. The value for cost is very reasonable for everything they have to offer, there are some great care givers here. The kitchen staff and the front office staff is great.

Depending on your loved one's needs, I would be cautious. If they're fairly social and want to make friends, this is not a good place. I think it's important to match the facility with the census of the people in that facility. For instance, their activities were lackluster, and I was not impressed. They had people who couldn't talk or were comatose sitting in on trivia questions. So activities were not necessarily matched to the ability of the residents. The staff were mostly very friendly and tried their hardest, although you always have one here and there that weren't. My loved one said the food was good, with a good selection, and he's a pretty picky eater. Overall it's a nice facility. But I think if you're going to be paying that much money, you'd better have a a lot more activities, and ones that are better suited for residents of different abilities. And if you have a loved one who is very active and alert, I would double check the census of the people there.

We had a virtual tour of this facility earlier this year and wanted to visit in-person to insure we had all of our questions answered and of course, to assist us in choosing the “right” community for mom. We loved the way the residents interacted with the staff. Each resident is known by name and seemed content to be there. Each resident, once evaluated, may start out in a “transition” building for a while, then moved to another building that may be better suited for their needs. This is a concept that could be hard on a dementia/memory care person. We loved the look and feel of the buildings and could see that each member of the staff was very caring of each resident. The cost was a bit out of our range. The community fee was high from our perspective. We had an opportunity to sample the resident chefs cooking back in March and were very pleased with it. In addition, we wanted to have a back up community chosen, in case there was no availability at our first choice community. Sun Lit has no space at all. We were offered to be placed on a waiting list, but we are not wanting to do that. We appreciate that attention to our visit by [name removed].

We toured this community and it was very nice. They had activities going on and the staff was very friendly. The answered all our questions and the tour was good.

We had a virtual tour of this facility. Very impressive. We saw no residents, but the staff appeared to be busy. The facility appeared clean and well kept. We were able to sample the chefs Irish meal as the facility sent a meal to our home. Excellent! They have transition facilities as needed for memory care requirements. Price was reasonable, not too many add-ons.

They seem to have enough people to help your loved one.

My loved one likes the community. They even have activities for the residents during the pandemic.

they did a really good job taking care of my dad. The staff really try and do a great job. I think overall this was a good place for us to go. I would recommend this community to others.
