    Clean caring community with caveats

    I toured the community and was impressed by the bright, remodeled, very clean facility with a homey feel and lovely valley views. The staff were outstanding - professional, friendly, attentive, quick to help, and excellent with move-ins and memory-care needs. There are lots of activities, restaurant-style dining, therapy services and inviting common spaces where residents seem engaged. Note that room sizes and pricing vary (some studios are small/pricey), and I observed occasional staffing turnover, slow service and construction disruption. Overall I felt confident this is a caring place where a loved one could thrive, but definitely tour to confirm fit and cost.

    About Santa Clarita Hills Senior Living

    Santa Clarita Hills Senior Living sits at 24305 Lyons Ave in Newhall and offers a calm and home-like setting for up to 99 residents who need help with daily living, memory care, or a short stay after surgery or illness, and you'll find they do everything from assisted living to specialized memory care with secured areas for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia and even hospice or diabetes care if you need it. The place accepts cats and dogs, lets residents decorate their own suites, has pleasant private rooms and apartments, and comes with wheelchair accessibility, low sodium and low sugar meal plans, and nicely landscaped walking paths and gardens outside, so you see a bit of nature while living in a safe spot. Staff stick around 24 hours a day with a nurse always onsite and have experience in helping residents transfer with lifts if needed, helping people with bathing, personal grooming, dressing, medication reminders, and bathroom visits, and can handle folks who might wander or act out, using bracelet alarms, locked areas, and custom care plans, which can be important for loved ones who need extra attention due to memory loss or behavioral changes. Meals get prepared by an executive chef and served in a restaurant-style dining room, with room service available, and you'll also find an onsite beauty salon and barber shop, laundry service, and transportation for doctor visits or outings, so daily life gets easier for residents, and honestly people can just enjoy activities like art classes, cooking, trivia, Wii bowling, wine tasting, and devotional services onsite or offsite if that helps their spirit too. Community leadership, with decades in senior care, work alongside caring and welcoming employees, and the place offers a full calendar of activities that keep residents busy, engaged, and connected, whether through indoor commons, outdoor gardens, or group events, and the policy keeps the building smoke-free and drug-free, which matters for many families. Santa Clarita Hills Senior Living belongs to Pacifica Senior Living, a larger group that runs many communities and offers support and career training to its staff, which seems to lead to a positive working environment and caring attention for residents, and with a score of 8.4 from reviews, it shows folks often feel comfortable and supported there. The memory care is purpose-built and set apart in a secured building, so residents with exit-seeking or wandering tendencies stay safe, and there are individualized care plans for everyone, whether you need light touch help or ongoing supervision, and the community welcomes those who want to age in place, making it possible to get more care as needs change without having to move again. Housekeeping, maintenance, and all sorts of daily help come with the price, and the community's atmosphere is friendly, supportive, and works well for seniors who want a mix of independence, safety, and social opportunities, and if you want to know more or see pictures, their website at santaclaritahills.com explains the details.
