Pros and cons

Overall, the administrative staff and nursing care team stand out positively and have been responsive and caring. I do not have any specific feedback regarding the therapy staff at this time. I would like to share a few areas that need improvement: Room cleanliness requires greater attention and consistency. I am uncertain whether weekly laundering of bed sheets and towels is being completed when those items are not placed in the hamper. Since I am not present daily and my mother does not remember, it is difficu

A Sterling Senior Community in the heart of Glendale.

Likes: Friendliness, activities, cleanliness and overall concern for residents. Least like: food (it's better - but not quite there yet) What stood out for us about Ararat Gardens over other places was their concern for any COVID outbreak last year if any - they made sure visitors wear a mask and they had self testing at the entrance. Also, all visitors - all times - sign in at entrance at kiosk - a number of facilities we visited didn't do this.
