This post is based upon visiting a friend. The visitor check in and check out service was pretty easy. I recommend that they enlarge the fonts so it is easier to read. The facility seem to be having several activities going on and caring for patients. Customer service was excellent. We visited our friend. It is sad to see so many people without someone but they are doing their best there. Become a volunteer to visit the elderly and afflicted as will I in the future. God bless you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Happy holidays and happy Hanukkah. In

The San Luis Care Center has been so helpful with my Father. Their patience with his has been outstanding. They have gone above and beyond to accommodate him. It is a comfort for us to know he is in caring such hands.

I have had 2 daughters be residents in the Care Center at different times, and I have always been very pleased with the care of the people by the staff. You have wonderful, knowledgeable and caring employees and their number one concern is all about the family member who resides in your facility. My visit this evening with my relative Gary Shawcroft proved my point again, as all staff was very concerned with giving him the best care possible. It is a great place for the care of those who need it. I give you a very high rating!!
