Recent reviews of Nursing Homes in La Mesa, CA
White Sands, a CCRC in La Jolla, CA
5.0

White Sands facility has everything from independent living to skilled nursing. They have a lot of activities to offer, it is in a really beautiful location. We could not be happier with our decision, we know our mother is safe there. The food is excellent with a wide range of choices. The rooms are very nice and adequate, they have many options to choose from. Our loved one has a beautiful view.

Westmont of La Mesa
4.9

This community is very nice and clean. It is only a few years old and has washer and dryers in each unit to make it easier for the residents. They have activities like an indoor pool with water aerobics, chair work out classes and more for the residents to do to stay happy and healthy. They also have bingo.

Pacifica Senior Living Encinitas

Good varied activities there each day. Van is too small. People do not sign up for some special trips because they know not enough spaces. And only room for 1 handicap scooter/chair.
