Pacifica Senior Living Hemet was the only place that requires a medical exam from a doctor before moving in, so they can assess the needs of each incoming resident. Because of that, they offer a greater range of services. They handle most of the care and work directly with the doctor and the hospital. They had separate buildings, and they call them pods. You only have 20 residents in each home. They have a separate dining room, but they can still go to the main dining room and the main living area. They can get more of a sense of family because they're a smaller tight-knit group. I only looked at a studio because that's what we were wanting. They showed us a furnished and an unfurnished one and it was very nice. It was more set up for a greater deal of care. They do more outings than it seemed the other places do. They had games and activities onsite and then they also did offsite events with the residents. It seemed like you could kind of do as many things as you would like and sit them out if you don't want to, so that was nice. They provide three meals a day. I was impressed with what I saw.

My parents are living at Pacifica Senior Living Hemet. My sister and I went and visited some facilities and we found Pacifica to be the best for them. We chose it because this was more like home. It's surrounded by a community and it didn't look so institutionalized. Another reason is that the service there was very good and they have a lot of things for them. They're still getting used to leaving their home, but as a whole, if I was my parents' age and in their predicament, I would live there. That's what my sister and I look for. Would we want to live there ourselves if we were 90 years old? So yes, we would. That's why we wanted our parents to be in a place that was more like home. Everything went fine as far as the move-in. Everyone I've met has been very kind and very helpful. So far, I don't have any complaints. I haven't eaten any, but the food smelled very good. If they can't eat certain foods, they will accommodate. They just have to be told. The buildings are fine. Everything's well kept. You walk in, it smells fresh and clean. I think the facility's very nice. They have a Sit and Be Fit, games, happy hour once a week, and different things. They also have a little bus that takes them around town if they need to run an errand. I got to meet my parents' immediate neighbors in their building, and they're very nice. They have patios where you could sit outside. It's more like being at your own home. Another thing I liked about Pacifica is that it's a small community, so that allows the residents to meet their neighbors.

I liked that Pacifica Senior Living Hemet was very clean. They had a lot of activities. I saw them doing bingo there. However, it was set up more like a convalescent type hospital situation where they had different buildings and they had a nursing station. They do the meals and everything in the center, and then their little private rooms were all around that. It didn't have the same feel as the other place. It felt more like a hospital to me. It was a good facility. I think the staff would be working with the people more at Pacifica than the other one. It's a very nice place. I think they did more assistance there. The rooms were smaller. They weren't outstanding, but they were good, nice and clean rooms. Again, they open up to the inside to a hallway where there isn't as much privacy, but it's good because the staff would have access to any of the rooms at any time to help them if they needed it. The staff seemed to know everybody that was there. They took people on outings, which was nice.

The Pacifica Senior Living Hemet is a fantastic place. I would have tried to get my mom there if she stayed, but she passed away quickly. It would have been a terrific place for her. The room I saw was like a studio and you bring in your own furniture, you furnish it yourself. The care is enough care, they feed you over there, they have people that will help you bathe and clothe you. The grounds are beautiful and there are nice places to walk. There are grassy areas and trees. Everybody can get their own individual room. I thought that was a very, very beautiful place for her to stay. The rooms were clean, it's a fairly new facility, and the price, to me, was very affordable. The people there were very willing to show the room and answer any questions. So overall, the experience was very good.

I would like to be at home, but due to my circumstances, I am not able to. Pacifica is a great community. The staff is great especially Sherry, Wendy and Stephanie. I think it's great how Pacifica has been handling the Covid-19 situation to keep us all safe.

My husband is pretty much bed ridden. The caregivers are for the most part very compassionate and helpful My husband cannot participate in any activities but the cottages are very pleasant. Unfortunately because of the virus it is a very stressful time for all....

The nurse and med techs are friendly, the activities director is always planning fun events for the residents and involves family members which has been great. The caregivers are always ready to help my mom when she needs something, even helping her to find a particular show on TV. Annette in the front office is very nice and helpful. Very happy in choosing Pacifica Hemet.

Our overall experience with Pacifica Senior Living Hemet is excellent. The staff is very friendly, caring, professional and very nice people. The place is just immaculate and very nice. My mom is in a studio with enough room, it's very comfortable and the bathroom facilities were appropriate. Everything is just the right size and it's very well-equipped, it had cable TV and everything already. They had more amenities than anybody could ever use and all types of things to do. They have bingo which they rotate around the different buildings so the residents don't have to move around. They have all kinds of games, every Friday they have a happy hour in the main building where they get live music and everybody can unwind. Each of the cottages, which were about 15-16 rooms, have their own dining area for the residents in that building. The central kitchen prepares everything, and they have an amazing menu and great food. Even much better than I have eaten at other places, and the food is served hot. Each building had a refrigerator where the residents could have their own limited supply of things if they had special requests, like ice cream is available and snacks are always available. They're always well-taken care of. I've had breakfast, lunch and dinner there a couple of times. The portions are small, but if the residents want more they can have more. The value for the money is absolutely there.

My mother moved into Pacifica Senior Living Hemet Assisted Living. It's a very nice facility, it's a good layout, very comfortable feel, and the staff overall is really good. There are a couple of things that I had to remind them about with regard to specific care of my mom, but overall they do a really great job. My mom enjoys the food, and I've seen bingo and ice cream socials.

In general, we have been pleased with the quality of the facilities and the care. When there have been issues, they were addressed by the director promptly (although there has been a recent change in director and we have had little interaction with the new one). Biggest disappointment has been in lack of coordination by Pacifica of doctors appointments/follow up and the fact that their transport van only runs one morning of the week and one afternoon of the week. We spend a lot of time trying to get information about appointments directly from doctors as well as trying to set up transportation for medical appointments. Since we do not live in Hemet, this can be very difficult and is an ongoing stress for all of us.

My mother resided here for 15 years. The staff provided excellent support to her through out her years here. They always were responsive to my questions and concern whenever they arose. All were a part of my mother and family in her declining years.

I like that Pacifica Senior Living Hemet had separate small cottages from the main building. They bring the food to the residents. The staff seemed young and really vibrant; I liked that they have a lot of energy. The rooms were clean and tidy, and the space was bigger. They had nice walk-in showers. The environment had a homey feel. I can't think of anything they can improve on.

My grandmother's been here for a while. She feels comfortable with the people and likes the food. It's all updated where she lives. She's busy all day long doing activities, like games, singing, and folding laundry and little tasks like that. They go on little trips every now and then on the bus, though they don't really get out and go places because of their conditions. It's all homey.

I chose this community for my mother. The staff was very caring. They worked with the needs of families. She loves the place, but she was only there for two weeks. She loves the food. I don’t have any complaints about this place as I was very impressed with them.

The rooms are pretty nice, and the private rooms are really spacious. The rooms where you share are a pretty good size, and they’re roomy enough. The rooms are like little apartments. The staff is helpful. They do like karaoke, they do some activities, and they do sing. They do little party gatherings for them. They are always doing something. The food looks pretty good, and they seem to be enjoying it. The dining area is really nice, and it’s big enough for a family to come and join in with their love ones. For security, you just can’t get in and out.
