No the right fit, disappointed
Although it is hard to determine sometimes what the level of care is needed, if a family member needs direct supervision, this would not be the place. A board and care would be more appropriate. My father, who has now passed away, fell numerous times. I found him unresponsive one time in the middle of staff there, and walking in the common area with no pants on.

My Tour Experience
I thought they had great activities. But it was way too dark inside, and they had only a tiny outdoor patio that wasn’t easy to access. You had to walk around to get to it. The tour itself was a good experience, but the community just wasn't the right fit.

We chose Oak Cottage of Santa Barbara because it was focused on memory care. I like that they are very involved with Alzheimer's and their staff is well trained in all different areas. They have an app where you can see what activities your loved ones are doing. They also email videos and pictures of her and we can face-time her at anytime. They went and picked all of my moms stuff up from her previous facility, so it made the move very easy on us. They are a very family oriented facility. We have had a wonderful experience here so far.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Oak Cottage of Santa Barbara

Oak Cottage of Santa Barbara offers Studio and Semi-Private. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Oak Cottage of Santa Barbara 3 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
