    Lovely setting, alarming clinical care

    I have mixed feelings. The setting and outdoor areas are lovely, the social coordinator is excellent and my dad loves the frequent, voluntary in-house activities; OT/PT, respiratory support, and grooming services are available and food is fine. However, clinical care and oversight are alarming - disorganized medication management, failed feeding assistance, improper comfort/DNR orders without consent, lack of active care management, residents discouraged from walking, substantiated regulatory violations and even a patient death. Cleanliness and odor are poor, rooms are small and not private, and the location isn't convenient. One nurse provided a good level of care, but overall I cannot recommend this facility.

    About Country Manor La Mesa Healthcare Center

    Country Manor La Mesa Healthcare Center sits at 5696 Lake Murray Blvd in La Mesa, CA, and offers a variety of healthcare services focused mainly on seniors who need skilled nursing care or help with day-to-day activities, and the place has a steady heartbeat thanks to 24-hour supervision and caring staff who speak English, and although new residents aren't being accepted right now, those staying here can expect personalized care plans, with one to two prepared meals served daily, on-site laundry and housekeeping, and comfortable options for living in private or shared suites, and they do a pretty good job of keeping things peaceful with a lovely central garden where folks can just sit and let the sun warm their backs. The facility covers general healthcare, rehabilitative therapy, restorative therapy, and medical management, handling things like physical, speech, and occupational therapy for residents who may need to get back their balance, strengthen their memory, talk better, or just move a little easier, and their services for Alzheimer's and dementia care are quite thorough, giving folks with memory challenges the attention and support they need, and if hospice care is needed, that's there too. People who live here get help with dressing, bathing, and other parts of daily life, and social activities and games keep everyone connected, with everything planned so each resident can join in to the degree they want, and both independent and assisted living are available right alongside skilled nursing care so nobody has to feel left out or shuffled around. Nurses and therapists, along with rehab specialists, work together to help residents recover well and stay as independent as possible, and they do encourage families to visit and be part of things, believing that helps with healing and adjustment. The facilities are all designed to be warm and supportive rather than fancy, focusing on comfort with clean rooms, steady routines, and thoughtful touches to make it easier to settle in. Hours run from 10am to 8pm, and there's a brochure for those who want more details. The center holds a 5-star rating, which speaks to the level of care, though they don't make a big fuss about it, just sticking to steady, careful service that aims for the best possible outcome for every resident.
