Key Review Excerpts
“My mom has been a resident at San Marino for over 2 years. This is a well managed and staff facility. Each time a visit I am met with smiles. My mom has never been so alert, clean and emotionally supported.”
“My first impression to say the least I was very reluctant based on the exterior of the facility being old not best amenities; as well as the residents the roam around not cognitive that are unstable. My experience is that the CNA and Activities staff as well as the Social Worker And DON and few others have definitely being attending to the needs of my mothers care.”
“San Marino Manor may not be as updated as some of the other facilities. It's better, in so many other ways that are so much more important then the decor. Staff is warm friendly. They have away of making you feel so welcome.”
