What this means for your family

This facility offers a warm, community-oriented atmosphere during the day and holiday seasons. However, families should be extremely vigilant about labeling all personal belongings and following up frequently with management, as there have been reports of lost or damaged property and inconsistent communication from the evening staff.

Key Review Excerpts

Another Holiday event at Foothill Retirement home prompted me to say thank you, once again, to All the staff members who work like its a labor of love to take care of our loved ones.

Long-term resident's family · 2019★★★★★

Administrators were polite and listened well, however, execution of ideas or items offered, not very thorough. May need to remind or write it down and follow up.

Family member · 2022★★★☆☆

We saw the staff member go back to "check" and claimed they didn't have it. Months passed and we called again to check and they somehow found it shattered in pieces.
