The Carlotta felt like home.
It was great at The Carlotta. The food was really good. The staff was very responsive. I loved the room. My mom had two bedrooms and a patio. We had hummingbirds coming to flowers on the porch. They had a nice putting green and a pool. Just a short walk to the dining room. I rave a

The Fountains at the Carlotta
After having surgery for a broken hip at Eisenhower Medical Center I spent five weeks in the Skilled Nursing Facility at the Fountains at the Carlotta. My experience was like staying at a five star resort! From the time I checked in until I was discharged I was treated like a VIP. Everyone on the staff was very gracious and professional. The nurses were very compassionate and the physical therapy and occupational therapy staff was exceptional. I found the CNAs to be very attentive and accommodating. They cheerfully fulfilled any and all requests. The facility was spotless. The cuisine was very nutritious, plentiful, and well prepared. The entire facility had a very positive and refreshing atmosphere. Nobody looks forward to staying in a skilled nursing facility after surgery, but I have to admit I found myself reluctant to leave. I am convinced there is no better place to recoup after surgery than the Fountains at the Carlotta!!

Needs some improvement....
Things seem to be going well for my loved ones since the move to The Fountains. The problem they are facing right now is trying to get the transportation figured out. Other than that, the place is clean and the meals are good from what they have told me.

Fountains Move Coordinator - Dawn
My father-in-law was moved from another assisted living facility to the Fountains for rehab. The family decided it would be best to move his belonging from the other facility to the Fountain assisted living when his rehab ended. After an evaluation by the Fountain staff it was recommended he would be better served moving to their high level nursing section instead. Dawn, the move coordinator at the Fountains, handled everything for our family as there are no other family members in the Palm Springs area. She handled the entire move from the other facility to the Fountains, arranged his apartment so he could move in seamlessly with decorations and pictures on the walls and etc. After the decision to move him to skilled nursing, Dawn handled the move of his apartment belongings again to a nearby storage facility. She also ensured he would have a shelving unit for family pictures in his skilled nursing room and hung paintings and larger pictures on the walls of his room. She was very communicative during this two week process and was excellent working with. We could not have done this without her valuable help.

HORRIBLE CARE
Horrible Care Recently an elderly Family member of mine was moved to this facility with a broken leg. While at the facility he began suffering from Hallucinations and Confusion. He had a major bladder infection that was never treated correctly. The wound care he received from a bed sore that he got while he was there was treated poorly. His full leg cast was filthy and covered in feces and we are not even sure if they ever noticed. Finally my mother fought to get him sent to the hospital to get his mental state checked out and when the hospital was ready to send him back to the facility he was no longer welcomed back. The hospital gave plenty of warning they wanted to release him and they waited until late Friday afternoon to respond. Don't let someone you care about go into this horrible facility, look at getting care elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions
about The Carlotta

The Carlotta offers Studio and 1 Bedroom. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored The Carlotta 8 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.
