Critical

Ivy Park at San Juan

Activities offered are not that great, restrictive and controlling, environment, nickel, and diming you to pay for every thing extra, so many extra costs food is mediocre, somewhat boring. Help staff is very nice and friendly. good environment for those more cognitively impaired because it small and easy to navigate.

Wonderful experience!

I was the family that dropped off my uncle and just from the brief time I was there I felt that it was very pretty and welcoming upon arrival. The staff were very kind and the location was perfect for his needs. His apartment and set up was also perfect!

Review for Ivy Park at San Juan Capistrano

They run short staffed at times, but the staff that's there are mostly good. Location and cost stuck out over other places.

Excellent care

The staff and nurse have accommodated us recently through a cognitive episode my Mother went through for 4 weeks. Yes, there was a cost impact because they had to escalate their care for my Mother, but they were very helpful and understanding through the process.

More than I could have hoped for!

5s across the board. I would highly recommend the facility to friends and family. I would happily go there if the need arises- or my girls might just decide to send me there They helped me navigate Mom's needs as they changed, were great non-judgmental listeners and offered advice when asked. They treated mom with respect. Even mom, who had strong opinions about people in general, often told me how wonderful the staff was. My daughter visited other local facilities for me (I was in NY with mom) and she recommende

Friendly staff.

We love the classic, intimate 2 story design, and semi-hidden location. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend Ivy Park at San Juan to other families.
