Seacrest Village Retirement Communities

Outstanding care for my Mother after broken hip and operation. She stayed in the Goldberg section of this facility for 19 days. Every single staff-member we encountered was wonderful, kind, caring, and ensured my Mom received excellent care. The food was top-notch and the entire facility sparkling clean. The grounds are gorgeous, too with koi pond, putting green, bbq, and numerous patio lounge areas. My family members and I were there a minimum of 8 hours a day, so we saw first-hand how they care for the patients. We appreciated their attention to detail, always being careful of my Mom's privacy and dignity. They have activities every day, and PT + OT 6 days a week. The security is very good too: front desk and all doors are secure. We worked closely with Lydia (CNA), Marcia (Admissions), Thai (CNA our favorite!), Arlene (PT), Rosalinda (CNA), Jackie (OT), Rebecca (CNA), Athena (OT), Raquel & Armando (CNA)...and I'm sure I forgot some of the names. If we ever have to go back to a skilled nursing facility, heaven forbid, I would not hesitate for one second to return to this facility.

This place does not live up to there reputation by any means. There are insufficient and lack care and responsibility. My expierence with this place I was a part employee on the weekends. During my hiring process it took this company more than 3 weeks to process all if the steps needed for hire plus and all day meaningless orientation. Each and every step they needed to review my resume contact references preform a background check medical and a separate drug and tb test. I was not allowed to complete all of these task in 1 day instead I had to wait until each step was complete before I could continue to the next phase which is redundant. Given my limited availability to work for this company and over my contract which they hired my at weekend only this process took 3-4 weeks and they stated they would pay me for it. They still have not paid me for it. They wanted me to come in for an all day orientation outside of my work schedule and told me they would pay me for it but never did. I completed most of the tasks required online vs having to come in for it. I work 96 hrs a week and told them I would be available after 8 am on the weekends per my contract hire details and they were ridiculous immature and mad when I was not able to arrive at 7 am or even 730 am. I waited 3 weeks on them to complete there mundane and pointless tasks, and when I had to call off one weekend due to severe car trouble; they claimed I was having to many problems showing up and fired me via EMAIL (I am not a disgruntled employee I am just pointing out that my time was wasted). And never paid me for my hrs worked. DUE TO LACK IF PAYMENT THIS COMPANY IN IN THE PROCESS OF LAWSUT FOR VILOATION OF CALIFORNIA LAW. therefore would you really want to be apart of a company that had legal issues??? Would you want to work for that company or even pay them as a customer to look after you family in need?? I have seen first hand that this company does not value there employees which intern care for the customers. So in retrospect there priorities do not involve there customers clients or employees.Would you like to work or become a client of such a company? Would you trust this company with your time monet carrer choice? Would you trust this company with your family? Care to find out the hard way what will happen with that trust?

The Goldberg Center (the skilled nursing portion) does NOT live up to its reputation. While some nurses and caregivers are excellent, the level of professionalism, attention to detail, and plain common sense and care is nowhere near the level that one would expect. Residents are often ignored, left in soiled briefs for hours, and some nurses do not know how to do their jobs. If you visit often and stay on top of them, you might expect better results but even then the staff will sometimes ignore your concerns because they are 'too busy' or claim that they know what they are doing. On the positive side, the therapists do a great job. Oh, and if you are on Medicare, expect them to kick you out after 20 days regardless of your condition.
