Catalina Springs Memory Care

Excellent value for private pay residents and they take altcs! Hope and her team are the best for Memory care and assisted living. Lovely building and views of the Catalina Mountains. I really like that the residents don't have to move out for hospice care. That is really important to us.

Our mother is a resident. The staff is always friendly and treats the
residents with compassion. The facility is clean and secure. During the current pandemic they provide Skype calls with the residents. For
special occasions e.g., birthdays, they provide Zoom calls so the entire
family can take part. The resident nurse and med techs are always happy to discuss with us our mother's condition, needs, medical care when needed. Activities to stimulate residents interest are planned every day.

As a placement professional, we have partnered with Catalina Springs on multiple occasions. All of them have been wonderful experiences. This time is often filled with a bit of anxiety for the individual being placed and their family. That said, the staff at Catalina Springs always makes the anxiety fade away with their kind and professional guidance.

Taking care of people with dementia is one of the hardest jobs in the world and the staff at Catalina Springs does it very well. My sister-in-law was there for about six months, and she was not an easy resident to deal with, given the nature of her condition. But the staff consistently showed patience, understanding and humor in managing her and her illness and were incredibly responsive to our many questions and phone calls. Because we live 2000 miles away, my husband called frequently to get updates on his sister's condition. The nursing head always made time to talk to us, give us updates and work with us to address any ongoing issues. We came to rely on her good judgment, long experience and proactive suggestions. We were equally impressed with the facility's executive director who brings a calm demeanor and clear expertise to his work and to addressing resident issues. It is a well-managed place. When we recently visited the facility, we found it immaculate, nicely decorated, comfortable and homey -- not at all institutional in look or feel. Having a family member in an assisted living facility isn't easy, but Catalina Springs makes it much easier than it could otherwise be.

From when you first walk into Catalina Springs Memory Care you are welcomed with a warm smile and a heartfelt greeting. My husband has been part of this wonderful community for a little over five months and there has never been a time that I have been disappointed . What has impressed me the most is the energetic enthusiasm of the entire management team which translates into caregivers who genuinely enjoy where they are working. Along with passion for their profession and absolute concern for their residents a family atmosphere created here is second to none! As my husband advances through the stages of Alzheimer's I am grateful that I found the Catalina Springs Memory Care. Through this community I have gained the strength and compassion to deal with my own situation as well as other residents and their family members. My idea of memory care facilities has been completely transformed from a catatonic life to an active lifestyle . Each resident is brought into an activity and encouraged to participate in any way that they can. The entire staff exemplifies professionalism at every level and continually amazes me with their positive energy and continual patience. I am proud to call Catalina Springs Memory Care my husband's home.
