St. Francis Home for the Elderly

"Outstanding Care and Support"
My mom stayed at St. Francis in Cypress, CA for two years. The staff was amazing and took care of all her needs. The administrator was very involved with our family and always listened to our concerns. They handled my mom's medication and hygiene supplies, which really helped us out. The staff is well-trained and knows a lot about Alzheimer's, Dementia, and First Aid. The place is always clean and welcoming to families. They have BBQs and birthday parties for every holiday and resident's birthday. There's also someone who does activities with the residents. I give this place a great rating because they took such good care of my mom. Our family was very happy with her care at St. Francis. :)

This place suits calm individuals but struggled with challenging behaviors.

"Great for peaceful folks, trouble with more demanding residents"
This place wasn't the best for our needs. It's good for folks who are easy-going and don't become upset easily, and it's clean, organized, and comfortable. However, they seem to struggle with anyone who might need a bit more attention. My family member was clean each time I visited, but I think they were given too much medicine. As a result, they didn't really wake up much, didn't eat enough, started losing weight, and became dehydrated. The staff mentioned to me the troubles they were facing with my loved one. They completed an evaluation of my family member in their own home to determine if this place would be right for us, but nobody knew what would actually happen when we moved in.

"7/28 Visit: Clean Exterior, Fair Interior and Unfriendly to Cats."
Visited on 7/28. Outside was clean, inside was okay. They could cater to Mom's dietary requirements. Unfortunately, cats aren't welcome. The Staff was friendly. Room was decent, small backyard space. Both St Francis homes seem like they could use some maintenance. Bathrooms seem very poorly planned. Mark and I have decided against it!
