Santianna in Carlsbad, CA
4.4

Overall, my parents are loving living in Santianna. The staff is fantastic. Everyone in the community appears to be friendly and nice. The food has been an ongoing issue. While everything else about living at Santianna has been positive, the meals have been an ongoing negative. While there are basics that are always available and OK, the meals are generally just OK with some being terrible. On occasion there have been good or ever great meals mentioned, most weeks I get the same comments about the need for a new Chef.

My mother has been at Olivenhain for over 7 months. We have been with her their daily to visit and help her adjust. The staff is far beyond caring and the homelike atmosphere is so much better than the larger institutions that I have visited. The love shown by the staff for the residents is so wonderful. Even many of the caregivers who do not work there but come and provide additional companionship for individual residences have said that the personal care is so much better than many of the larger institutions.
