Mom moved into Estrella Gardens Feb, 2021. The minute I drove thru the gates, I knew mom mother would love Ammy's Place with surrounding views of the mountains and cacti. There is an amazing water feature in front of the beautiful home surrounded by lush landscaping. Once you enter the home you experience a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I am a nurse and was an assisted living manager numerous years ago. I knew what I was looking for in my mother's new home and I found it at Ammy's Place. They follow COVID guidelines and adhere to state guidelines in caring for the residents trusted in their care. Kathy and Tom, the owners, go above and beyond and administer to every aspect of my mother's care. Not only the physical, they provide music therapy, chair exercise, dinner trivia (cognitive therapy) and they also have a hair dresser who comes to the home once a week. The home has an open floorplan with soaring ceilings, with windows and sliding doors overlooking a garden paradise in the enclosed back yard. There is a wraparound back covered patio with clustered seating to encourage socialization. The back yard has a putting green, gazebo, pathways throughout the back yard and numerous fruit trees. My boys and I picked oranges, lemons and grapefruit with my mother directing the whole process!!! My mother has blossomed physically and mentally under the loving care of Tom, Kathy and their staff. Every holiday is celebrated with fun, colorful activities and the residents are involved in every aspect. I can not say enough about Estrella Gardens-my mother is proof positive of what loving care can do for a loved one.
