Independent Living in El Cajon, California

"Westmont of la Mesa is truly a resort like community. My parents moved in here even though they were very independent because of all the activities and social programs. The biggest plus was the indoor pool that my mother uses everyday. They are in the independent side of the community but it also offer more care for the future. The staff is also a plus." - Blanch… Read more

"My loved one has been in the memory care facility for the past 2 weeks. During that time we have witnessed soiled residents walking around, lack of staff to respond to needs of residents, staff that was there telling us there are only 2 people working on that floor because others called out. (There are around 20-30 residents on that floor) We have been asked numerous times by visitors if we could help them with their loved one from helping get their clothes on to finding their loved one that wasn’t in their room and they couldn’t find him or anyone to help. The last time I was there an elderly lady was yelling for help because a man had wondered into her room. The list goes on. Along with that they told us our loved one would be checked on every 30 minutes. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN. There is much more but they limit the space. Needless my loved on is going to be moved to a different facility." - Jane… Read more
