Rating & safety How to read thisThese are the state’s own categories. Type A: problems that, if not corrected, put residents’ health, safety or rights at direct and immediate risk. Type B: problems that could become a risk without correction, or record-keeping problems that affect care. Both must be corrected. Complaints the state didn’t confirm are shown but never counted against the community.

Parking here is atrocious, there’s never any parking for visitors. If there isn’t any available stalls we have to find parking on the street and walk (and you can expect there isn’t any close parking on the street, we’ve walked a few blocks). When there is, it’s so far from the building we need to go to. So many reserved parking stalls but only a handful of visitors parking. A place this big…

Avoid this place at all cost. If you care about your loved one, do not send them to this facility. The patients are neglected. I wrote a review in Yelp with a couple of examples, if you need further details. My brother and my my mother were at the facility. My brother got a large pressure wound/bed sore. He passed away. When I witnessed an incident of severe neglect with my mother, I immediately…

Moving to Grossmont Gardens has been the happiest decision she…

When my mom’s health status changed, they had to be separated. My dad was moved to assisted living and mom to their "skilled nursing" (Health…

My mom was at Grossmont Gardens for about seven months I think. She was 97 years old really know health problems, but couldn’t really walk couldn’t see and couldn’t hear. She was able to get around really well in her wheelchair and she did that all day long. They brought in Eye doctors and people to see her so that I wouldn’t have to take her out as it was really difficult. She was pretty…
