Community Reviews
Very Friendly Staff
reviewed on: 03/21/2017 by MBWe toured 3 facilities in Escondido before choosing Pacifica. There were 3 other family members besides myself touring. We met the tour guide - Barb, head of the memory unit. She gave us a very complete tour which included the public areas as well as a few apartments. She knew EVERY resident's name and took time to chat with every single one as we passed them in the halls. Since my mom moved in, we have had some challenges. The one with the menu (mom has Celiac & Diabetes) is one mom needs to adapt to. They do provide some options in gluten free breads and baked goods. The kitchen staff can be a bit abrasive if you show up at closing. The kitchen closes at 6pm and if you show up at 5:50 they let you know they aren't happy. Any other issues that have come up, we have been able to resolve with the appropriate staff. Mom is happy and making friends quickly. The age range is broad from late 50's to over 100. Since mom falls in the middle, she is happy to have such a diverse crowd. Some residents have pets living with them. There are cats that "visit" mom's patio which she enjoys. There are a few small dogs as well. The barking can be annoying at times but it isn't prolonged or overly loud. Overall I would recommend Pacifica Escondido.
Review of Pacifica Escondido
reviewed on: 05/14/2020 by Lisa NeilI just wanted you to know that I just got off the phone with my mom. She was so happy and told me all about cinco de mayo celebration. How she, [name removed] and [name removed] sat out under the tree and ate rice and Beans and how beautiful it was today. I just wanted to know how we appreciative we are and how much it means to her and ( [name removed] and I) that you all do these thoughtful kind acts. It makes a real difference. Especially at the time when we all are feeling so housebound and far apart. I just wanted to thank you so much!!
Review of Pacifica Escondido
reviewed on: 03/05/2020 by Mike StewartThis last weekend the four Stewart sisters (two from Florida, one from Ohio, and one local) visited [name removed] at your facility and took him for a couple outings. My sister wanted me to let you know they think your Memory Care staff and facilities are wonderful. They had the opportunity to meet and spend some time special time with [name removed] and a lady - they think it was either [name removed[ or [name removed]. They couldn't say enough about how happy [name removed] was and how your staff treated [name removed] like an equal and a friend. The whole experience was magical. I generally talk with [names removed]. They are all incredibly helpful and wise in the advice they have provided me to navigate the couple problems that have occurred with [name removed]. It is hard to believe [name removed] will be completing his first year with Pacifica in a couple weeks.
