Review for Katella Senior Living Community

They are not trained to assist with those that suffer from dementia. They have little patience for those that need extra care. Extra services that we were told they had changed after we moved our mother in.

Friendly and welcoming

We chose Katella because of the location and size and beauty of the rooms. Nice community. I think the harder part was that my mom was a little combative and not an easy patient, and they only had so much time to be able to help her eat, but I also think that there were times that they could have got things a better situated for her. Overall, we would definitely recommend it though.

Katella Senior Living

I cannot rate the meals and dining services as well as the activities because I did not observe. During our loved ones stay I was mostly out of town and not within the facility so it is hard to say what we liked more or if they had room for improvements, but based on the experience we would recommend the community to other families.

Patient and compassionate staff

My father chose this location due to it being close to their home so he could visit often. The staff were extremely competent, caring, patient and compassionate.

Recommended

Every time we went, the staff were very helpful and kind. The areas were all clean. The move in process was fairly simple. It could use some updating as other places we visited were more bright and welcoming. I would recommend the facility.
