I am beyond grateful for the exceptional care my mom received at Lake Balboa Care Center. Staff are caring, compassionate and kind. They not only attended to her physical needs but also they went out of their way to make her feel comfortable and they treated her with dignity and respect. They have the best team of PT and OT, because of them she was able to regain back her strength. The speech therapist also helped her a lot and she genuinely cared. I am thankful to all the doctors, NP, PA's especially to PA shaina. Thank you shaina for the outstanding care you provided for my mom, you took the time to listen,address her concerns and you are always on top of her care. We will never forget your kindness. Thank you to all the amazing LVN's especially to luisa and maybeth, to RN shiony and amelito and to all the wonderful and hard working CNA's and to RNA rosario and mickey, to the lovely DON jonah and lorraine, social worker cheryl and leslie thanks for all the help and support. To scheduler kristine thank you for arranging her appointments, you have been very helpful and efficient. To All the activity staff claire, yesenia, freddie and the other guy that I was not able to get his name, thank you for making my mom happy she enjoyed the activities especially bingo, rummy que, doing artworks and listening to music. Thank you to the housekeeping team, dietary and the friendly receptionists. Words are not enough to express how much we appreciate all the amazing staff here at Lake Balboa Care Center. We will never forget all the good things you have done for my Mom. I wholeheartedly recommend Lake Balboa Care Center!!

Being a patient here has been a good experience. The nursing staff along with nurses aids have made my stay here comfortable and without complaints. Beyond the care staff, there is a dedicated staff of Occupational and Physical therapist's who work with you daily to restore your abilities. The goal of Lake Balboa Care Ctr, is to restore your strength, adapted to each and every patient to the best of their abilities. You are never made to feel that you are a burden, but are respected as a human being and treated as such even if you are severely limited in your abilities. I greatly appreciate the daily work that the PT and OT did with me, restoring my strength and bringing me to full recovery to return to a life, fully independent. Together the nursing, the care aids, and the PT and OT staff offer a comprehensive team with one goal in mind the well being of each and every patient.

Overall, the physical and occupational therapies have been excellent, but the daily care is inadequate and poorly managed. Lack of response when "emergency call button"is used. Broken equipment and heavy workload. Scheduled times for items ignored. 3-hour wait for shower times today 2/8/2024. Careless bedding for patient's comfort. Meals are mostly cold or barely warm and incomplete when served. Freddie in Activities Room is very caring and efficient. Many nurses are warm and polite. Some are unfriendly and show to be under-staffed. Hope I never have to come again.

The PT dept here is stellar. My therapy is mostly with Mike and Claire and I couldn't ask for better. Also this place is really, really clean. Amazingly so. The concierge, Brenda, is a real gem and takes great pains to listen to the patients and address our complaints with the owners or administration. Unfortunately her reports seem to fall on deaf ears. We've been thru at least 4 cooks since I arrived a month ago and the food has been inedible. Sometimes we get nothing but a plate of white food, all carbs. Day after day we're told they are out of meat, fruit, veggies, creamer, decaf -- whatever and they're out for days! They order the food but it goes missing before the chef can get it to us. Someone is stealing this place blind and the Admin doesn't seem to care. This morning we had a small cold waffle. No butter, no syrup available. Haven't had any all week. The brochure says gourmet cook and menu. Forget that. They have a set menu, which they don't stick to and are always out of substitution meals if you can't eat what they have. They make such a big deal about gourmet food, Netflix, iPads and phones, tvs with headsets and they don't have any of it. What they do have are AMAZING CNAs (certified nursing assistants) like Anna and Niki, terrific med nurses like Allan, and super assistants like Kim that seem to be great at everything, and the hardest working event planners I've ever seen in Rodeen and Freddy. These workers deserve the 5 stars for their dedication absolutely. But the kitchen situation is a real star loser.

My sister was there last year as she recovered from a broken arm. Staff was good. Smaller facility. I couldn’t stand the 4 person room but my sister was semi ok with it. They were pretty communicative with us as the family letting us know how my sister was progressing with her rehab, physical therapy and would have family meetings with us and they would share their observations with her healing process in mini formal meetings. So we liked that. Compared to bigger facilities this one seem like they stayed on top of cleanliness and I never felt as though there were a lot of issues with bad smells in the hallway. There was an interior patio area where you could visit with family and/or have a nice visit there that was always pleasant.

I know how difficult it is to choose a place for your loved one to be cared for, thats why I must leave this review. My husband has been in the care of Lake Balboa Care Center for 3 months, a very long time, but that has given me the insight and knowledge that I can confidently and without hesitation, highly recommend this facility. Every employee has been so very caring kind and helpful. My husbands strength and overall health has dramatically improved, beyond our expectations. A genuine and heartfelt thank you to the staff, for being there for my family in this unimaginably difficult time. ♥

Really unhappy with kitchen unresponsiveness to wrong meals served. They put the CNA in the middle, the patients beg for something different and the kitchen is difficult. Ive been served meals that are a disgrace on a plate. A pile of shrimp in an orange sauce? Fajitas served with nothing to wrap them in? Cant even get a lousy fruit plate with cottage cheese or yogurt instead. So I dont eat. Grade :F

My mother is currently a patient at this facility and she receives excellent care. The therapists, nurses, and CNAs are all very attentive and caring. Freddy in the Activity Room is a hoot, very upbeat and knows everyone's names. The Dietician spoke with me about moms diet, she is diabetic, and she receives healthy meals with fresh vegetables and not too many carbs. I would highly recommend Lake Balboa for your loved ones recuperation.

My mother in law recently became a patient at this facility. From day one everyone treated her and us very well. As busy as Friday nights are, they were all smiling and happy to help her and take care of her! As a nurse myself, I understand the demands of the job! And while not one place is 100% perfect, this center is def 100% great and strives for the best. It shows in the team work that the CNAs do and the nurses that over look and treat the patients. We are very glad to have picked Lake Balboa and love treating the staff with goodies and desserts! Keep up the good work. Thank you.
