I went to visit Pacifica Senior Living Oakland Heights for my mom. I set up a meeting and a tour with them because they were in my price range, but when I went there, the prices were not what they were advertising, they were higher. The tour was good and they provided all the information that we needed. It was just the price that was not for me. I saw the rooms that they had available, they were nice ones. I was able to see the lunchroom or cafeteria, and some of their amenities like the library, and a little garden that they have. The facility itself is pretty nice, it's just not within my price range. The only staff person I spoke with was the coordinator for in-taking. I didn't eat there but they showed me their menu.

We visited Pacifica Senior Living Oakland Heights. The tour was excellent. We were greeted professionally. We received a brochure. They explained the different kinds of housing arrangements. They gave us a tour of the facilities and the rooms. It was very well done. The rooms were very well kept up. They have different kinds of rooms with different features that cost more. The room that was available that we looked at had a little balcony, which was super nice. The thing that troubled me just personally was that there wasn't enough natural light, but it's an older building and we'd have to supplement the light. That was the only downside. Otherwise, I found it to be adequate. It was good.
There wasn't any activity scheduled when we were there. We came around lunchtime. We didn't even think to try their food, but we observed people enjoying it. Their dining room was pretty full. The living atmosphere was good, and it had a lot of charm. It was well kept up, and the people were very courteous and kind. The limiting factor for me was the price. We would have enjoyed placing mom there, but we just couldn't afford it. The staff was all very good.

I had a positive impression of Pacifica Senior Living Oakland Heights based on my tour. The atmosphere seemed positive and the place seemed nice, but the rooms were a little small. They had an outdoor deck area.

We visited Pacifica Senior Living Oakland Heights. It was nice, it was clean, and it was close to where our families are located. We're looking to go back and look into a bundle like a detached apartment or townhouse that they have. The person was nice, and the director we met with was good. Memory care and primary care are all we looked at. They have everything there, and they have full amenities. The thing that stood out to most for us was how close it was to where all our families are living, so that's one of the major things we're looking at. We saw the dining facilities and they were impressive and upgraded. They said they had activities in memory care. The room was a little dissatisfying, it was small, and it looked like a little hospital room. It's very plain, but I'm sure we would have to decorate the room for my older sister.

I went to Pacifica Senior Living Oakland Heights with my sister, and it was a nice visit. They showed me a lot of places, including the memory care unit. My sisters even like the independent area, and she said that maybe they can try living there. Basically, we like it there very much.
The rooms were nice, and the staff explained it to us. It was good. The staff who gave the tour was very good. We like that the location is convenient, and it's a big gated area. The people are friendly. We saw a class that was going on there. Just in general, they are good. Their gardens and walking areas look good too. The maintenance and upkeep look good as well. We like it there because of the buildings and the cleanliness. The outside and inside all look good.

The staff has been excellent in working with a group of us to get our friend happily established in Memory Care.
Everyone has been friendly, professional and eager to meet our needs.

They made surface level renovations so the facility looks way too fancy for the actual people living there, very odd decorating choices. Then they jacked up the costs and did away with all the activities, amenities, garden and general loving\fun vibe. They cannot keep the residents dressed in their own clothing (general free for all clothing swap) and my dad got scabies as a result. And then guess what….another price increase. They are about to make some changes, so finger crossed it’s all for the good of the residents and not their bottom line. My dad has lived there for several years.

My husband just moved into Pacifica Senior Living Oakland Heights last Monday. So far, it's very clean, the workers are very caring, but very busy. We're comfortable with the place. The only problem I have is, we move him to memory care, and the residents wander into other people's rooms, I found them sleeping in my husband's bed, and Im not happy with that. They were proactive in taking care of the people's complaints. I was lucky to get him a private room, but we're in a waiting list for a shared room as well. They have activities all day, they want them out of the room in the morning, have breakfast, assist them in getting ready for the day, and they take care of their meds. They offer 3 meals a day, 2 snacks, they keep him clean, and make sure they take care of them. They provide them simple meals and healthy snacks. It's an old building, they did the best they could with what they have, and it's clean.

Fred H., the Memory Care Director for Pacifica Oakland Heights, has made a huge and positive impact on my aunt Linda’s experience as a resident. He sets a very high standard for care for his staff. Ive often seen him talk my aunt into doing something she needs to do such as showering etc. with humor or charm. Over the last 3 years as resident she always says how happy she is, how cared for she feels. Fred gets a great deal of credit for this and my aunts safety. Believe me, with growing population of Alzheimer’s there have been challenges Fred has always worked well with us to solve and work through anything that has come up in the most helpful ways. He has a deep awareness of how dementia affects residents, while maintaining a warmth and kindness with every resident I’ve observed him with.
But he isn't the only one, my dear aunt wouldn't be so happy and content if each and every staff member who came in contact with her didn't do the same: from the activities directors who stimulate her brain, to the other nurses and caregivers who are unfailingly capable,patient, respectful and kind.
The food is of high quality and tasty, but I've asked them to consider serving more finger foods that are easier for dementia residents to eat. I've often joined my aunt at lunch and have very nutritious meals served then. And the staff are very much on hand to help out.
