"Assisted Living Falls Short in Husband's Care"

We tried Foothill Retirement briefly. Only two days. Director approved, but it wasn't suitable. Husband declined upon arrival. Mostly female staff struggled to assist him. Surprising lack of experience for senior care setting. Needed 911 for a simple situation. Wanted ER transfer unnecessarily. Not just women residents, but still inadequate care. Clean but unable to meet husband's needs.

"Horrifying Assisted Living Tour: Expect Falls and Night Calls"

We visited Foothill assisted living, and right off the bat, our impression was awful. The staff let us know straight away, "Expect to get calls at odd hours because your elderly loved one is bound to stumble and possibly get hurt." This shocked and upset us, so we got out of there as quickly as we could.

"Depressing Scene at Neglected Assisted Living Facility"

Pretty dilapidated. The folks in memory care are just idling, doing nothing. Employees look like they're doing their utmost, but it's just heartbreaking.

"Mixed Feelings on Assisted Living During Pandemic"

I wasn’t happy working with the two main nurses and their rules. The other helpers were okay. They said they had enough people to look after my family member with health issues, but I don’t think the care was enough. The costs were fair. All this happened while the pandemic was going on.

"Mixed Reviews on Staff and Food; Recommend with Caveats"

The people who take care of our loved ones at this place are okay, but it depends. Some of them are good, and some are not. The staff who are there every day would get three out of five stars. The people who run things and the main nurse would get four out of five stars. As for the food, our loved ones just don't like it. Before COVID, we could visit and talk to other people who live there in the dining room, and they also said they don't like the food. Recently, they changed some of the people who work there, and the food got even worse. So now we decided to have food delivered to our loved ones every day. But even with all that, we would still say this place is a good choice.

"Caring Community with Attentive Staff"

I believe it’s a pleasant place with a lovely setting, but communication has been challenging. The food is a hit, and he enjoys his apartment and the community’s animals—cats and birds. We picked this smaller, home-like community for its good care. The caregivers are genuinely nice, attentive, and keep him clean.

"Mixed Feelings"

The assisted living facilities were nice, and the staff was a great guide. Unfortunately, it might not suit my mom.

"Lovely Place, Not Ideal for Mom"

Even though the facilities were lovely and was a wonderful guide, I'm not sure this would be a great fit for my mom.

"Friendly staff and home-like feel with a great backyard"

The staff is really friendly. The building feels like a private home, not just an assisted living facility. The backyard is wonderful.

"Recommended, but has a waiting list"

This community would have been my first choice. The staff did a great job with my tour, taking their time to show me around and answer all my questions. I felt it would have been a good fit for my uncle. However, there was a waiting list. I would recommend taking a tour of this community.

"Fantastic Care and Facilities at Foothill Retirement "

My husband has been here for a few months, and I’m really impressed with everything. The caregivers are always positive, caring, and ready to help. The management is skilled and professional. The food is healthy, well-planned, and looks great. There are lots of fun activities happening all the time. The place is always clean and smells nice. I have absolutely no complaints!

"Outstanding Care and Service at Foothill Retirement - Tujunga, CA"

I have my father here, and I can’t say enough good things about this place. The staff are very caring and treat my dad like he’s their own dad. He’s always clean and checked on throughout the day. He’s been here for over two years, and I don’t plan to move him. The grounds are excellent. Keep up the great work!

"Wonderful Care and Kind Staff Make Sunshine Assisted Living Great"

Fantastic Place! We brought our mom here to the memory care unit, and she’s doing so well! The food is really tasty, and the medical staff always takes great care of mom’s needs. The rooms are clean and decorated for every holiday. Everyone on the staff is kind, caring, and supportive. We love it here!

"Foothill sets the bar high with great care and staff"

Foothill is a fantastic place. I checked out other communities, but Foothill became the standard I compared them to. The staff is super friendly and always pays attention. The building and the grounds are spotless. The location is also perfect. I had no doubts about placing my mother here, and I know she's getting great care.

"Beautiful, friendly Foothill with lots to offer"

I visited Foothill to find a place for my mom. They don’t have space right now, and I see why. The staff is really friendly, the place is clean, and they were having a watercolor class while I was there. The building is beautiful, kind of like Santa Barbara. It’s LOVELY!

"Great care and pet-friendly environment"

We're really happy with how things have gone at Foothill Retirement. My loved one seems to be adjusting well! They were super helpful during the move-in process and even let her bring her two pets, which was really important to her. I can't visit often because I live out of state, but I hear great things from her!

"Excellent Communication and Care"

We moved my mom here from another place and we're very happy. They always keep us updated on how she's doing and respond quickly to our needs. I'm really satisfied with how they handle her medications. The grounds are beautiful with lots of open outdoor space. They also have way better activities than the last place she was at.

"Friendly, helpful staff with great activities and garden"

They are super friendly and helpful. Everything is posted on a wall so you can see what’s happening and what’s planned. There are lots of great activities, which is perfect since my mother loves staying busy. She enjoys working in their beautiful garden. Overall, it's been a very positive experience.

"Cozy Spot, but Tiny Rooms and Feels Secluded"

Cute and cozy, but rooms are tiny. It seems secluded.

"Fantastic care and perfect setup for my uncle and dog"

They have been amazing! Our experience with them was great. I needed a place for my uncle and his dog, and they had the perfect setup for both. They made sure the place and the yard were safe for the dog. They have been so nice and helpful. They couldn’t have been any more accommodating.

"Nice place but room was too small"

We visited this place while exploring options for senior living. It looked really nice! But when we came back for a second visit, the room they had available was too small for us.

"A Foothill Retirement Review"

The place was always tidy. The staff was super nice and kept us informed. They really took good care of everyone. Plus, Foothill Retirement offered transportation, which was a huge relief.

"This place deserves 11 stars if that were possible!"

If there were 10 stars, I'd give them 11. This place is amazing with wonderful people. You walk in and instantly feel at home. We are super happy and love it here!

"Perfect fit for dad, wonderful staff"

I couldn't be happier. I needed to find a place for our father after he was released from a skilled nursing home. So I called "A Place For Mom" and spoke with a very nice lady who gave me wonderful information and advice. She also checked availability and different options for our father after his stroke. She arranged for many facilities in our area to call me so I could set up appointments at my convenience. Our father is now at Foothill Retirement, and it is the perfect fit for him for now. The staff at Foothill Retirement are wonderful, genuine, and honestly care about the people they take care of. He likes the food too, and the grounds are very well kept. Keep up the good work.

"Good care, but read the contract carefully"

The care here is great, and my father-in-law loves the food, lol, which is really important! They worked with us to find him a room where he felt comfy too. The only thing I'd warn you about is to really read your contract. We told them from the start that it would be a 1 to 2 month stay, but we didn't know they needed a written 30-day notice too. Now we have to pay for an extra month, and Dad wants to go home. Someone there also told him he needed a doctor's OK to leave, but that's not true. He signed himself in and can sign himself out, just like his doctor said!

"Perfect for Singles in Quirky, Modest Assisted Living Facility"

Great for single folks; Not ready for pairs. Kind of quirky, yet in a lovely area. Rooms are modest.
