Sunrise at La Costa, Carlsbad CA

Sunrise Senior Loving is one of the best facilities in San Diego County. This is a small caring community staffed with kind, compassionate, professionals dedicated to seeing your loved ones not just live comfortably but THRIVE. The facility has been meticulously maintained and updated. It looks brand new. Staff & caregivers are the most professional you will meet. They are engaged with residents & guests. A loving, family community.

My mother has lived here for a year, since the new Director took over there has been a decline in care and services because of staff leaving. Some very competent employees that have worked there for a number of years have left because the Director made it clear her agenda was all about money and not the quality of care. Residents are leaving because of the caregivers filling in for positions that are now empty so that when they push the button on their pendant to alert caregivers they need assistance either no one shows up until maybe an hour or more later. I have arranged to move my mother into a safer and more caring environment. This will be my 5th move, there is a real need for keeping senior care home corporations and their staff honest and keeping their commitment to caring for their residents.

A close family friend moved to Sunrise last year and had a wonderful experience there. The staff was so caring and always greeted us by name when we came to visit. The excellent food, excursions and other activities helped Charlie feel right at home. Would not hesitate to recommend Sunrise at La Costa to anyone seeking a warm, homelike atmosphere and gentle, professional care.

My uncle has been at Sunrise for the past 9 months and we are very happy with the staff, the overall environment and the care that he is receiving. The social work staff has been especially helpful and kind. The staff know and interact with the residents in a respectful way. The physical environment is elegant, light and comfortable. There are many activities from music to trivia to crafts, to movie nights. Recently my uncle was moved to the memory care unit and we found the staff to be supportive and attentive to his needs as he transitioned to a higher level of care.

This is a great retirement home! The staff are friendly and really nice with the residents. There are a lot of volunteering opportunities. I recommend this place if you are looking for a retirement home, or to hang out with some of our wiser citizens!

Sunrise in the Memory Care group has been great in taking care of my mother over the last year. Their caregivers go above and beyond and are very dedicated. I could not be more pleased!

I have had a wonderful experience with my parents at Sunrise. Initially, my father was in memory care, but my mother had her own apartment in assisted living. That way, she could visit whenever she wished, but also had her own retreat. The staff was extremely helpful and responsive and empathetic when my father passed away - and my mother didn't have to make any moves at that time, which was good for her. She continues to thrive, and I am pleased to see so many of the same faces working there for the past 5 years. I am very familiar with other residences (because of other family members), and I highly recommend Sunrise.
