I don’t think that Foothill Retirement is for my cousin. The people who live there were either advanced in age or in need of a lot of assistance, and he does not require any of that, so the environment is not conducive to him. They had food and activities. There were people in the dining room having a sing-along. My cousin is a beach bum who still rides bicycles, has a lot of friends, and goes to Starbucks every day, so is not advanced like the other people who are there. It is a fine place for somebody who requires that kind of service.

Foothill Retirement Care Home is a nice community that seems to be well run. The people there are very happy. My mom is not doing so well; she has dementia. We are not happy with her state, but the place itself is very good. The staff is very responsive to our concerns and to my mom’s needs. She is wheelchair-bound and requires daily assistance in all of her activities. The meals are great and have had several community dinners. There seems to be plenty of activities for Mom to do. There were Christmas caroling events, Thanksgiving dinner, and a tree lighting ceremony, all within the 30 days that she has been there. They have a wide range of people from independent living cottages to assisted living to memory care. I would recommend them to anybody who asks.

Foothill Retirement is convenient, and once my husband got there he began to like it. It is a nice place, and the people are really nice. The staff is really just superb. I couldn't ask for better -- they're just terrific. They tend to be very loving people, and they will give you their time if you need it. They are very friendly and seem to be very outgoing. The food is good -- I can't complain about that. They have a TV there, they have magazines, and they play cards and different kinds of games. The best thing about this place is probably the people.

There were not available rooms when I visited which was to bad because, from what I observed, the place looks very nice. There seemed to be a lot of staff, the residents looked well-dressed and happy. They had a watercolor class going on which looked interesting. The place is nicely maintained, clean and on a large property with nice gardens.

My mother is very happy with the care she receives at Foothill Retirement. My mother is crippled and can not even move herself into a sitting position. The staff is attentive and quick to respond to calls from the residents. My mother has been a resident for the past 3 years. About a year ago, the facility experienced a brief period of a poor administrative director but that person has moved on along with her few poor caretakers. The current staff is exceptional. They cater to residents food requests and are always ready with snacks to supplement between meals. There are plenty of daily activities and special events for holidays and birthdays. The facility is clean with a cheerful décor.

The staff at Foothill Retirement Care Home were rude. They treated my mother-in-law like she was about to die. They did not watch her close. Some of her things were stolen in the facility. And worst, they wanted to raise the payment in one month. It was a horrible place.
