IVY TERRACE AT GARDEN GROVE

My experience with this facility was a very positive one. Sarah Padron was very helpful, knowledgeable and professional. She was vey understanding of our situation and took the time to accommodate us with a tour and information. The facility was clean and had a very home-like feel to it.

I recently had the opportunity to visit Ivy Terrace at Garden Grove as part of a university project focused on health promotion and aging. I couldn't have interviewed a better facility - from the moment I arrived, I was struck by how warm, welcoming, and genuine the environment felt. The facility is clean, bright, and thoughtfully designed to promote independence and safety for residents. The front desk attendant was so kind and accommodating as well. The community spaces are cheerful and well-maintained, and there’s a wonderful sense of connection between staff and residents-lots of smiles, conversation, and laughter. I met with Sarah, the Marketing Director, who was AMAZING!! Sarah was so incredibly kind and knowledgeable, and took the time out of her day to sit and talk with me and personally show me around the campus. She shared how deeply she cares for each resident and how her team works to provide personalized, compassionate memory care, which was very evident in all of my interactions. I also had the pleasure of briefly meeting Kyle, the Director who radiated kindness and gratitude throughout my visit. He greeted me with such genuine warmth and took the time to share how much he loves working with the residents. It was clear he takes great pride in his work and truly values being part of their lives! What truly stood out during my visit were the amazing activities and events that keep residents active and engaged. During my visit, I saw residents enjoying bingo and movie time, while others were singing, dancing, and even putting on small concerts for each other. I had the honor of meeting Betsy, the Activities Director, who has such positive energy and genuine love for her residents. She plans everything from gardening and painting classes to baking sessions, live entertainment, and themed monthly events like luaus and holiday celebrations. Families are encouraged to attend many of these events, which really adds to the feeling of connection and community. The staff take great care to ensure that everyone (even those with limited mobility) has the chance to participate and feel included. When I met Betsy, she actually paused in the middle of giving a resident a haircut just to greet me with a warm smile. These small gestures said so much about the staff's compassion and how deeply they care for the people they serve. It’s clear the residents are engaged, active, and well-loved. Ivy Terrace genuinely feels like a home, not a facility- even to a visitor like me! Ivy Terrace at Garden Grove is a wonderful example of what quality memory care should look like: compassionate, safe, and full of life. — Erika H.

This memory care community is a hidden gem in Garden Grove! The grounds offer beautiful walking paths, the building looked and smelled clean, and the staff were very hospitable. Residents seemed to be happy and having fun. We felt the warm welcome! Thanks, Ivy Terrace!

Crescent Landing-Garden Grove was the perfect choice for my family. The staff is kind and caring and they treat the residents with dignity and respect. The Activities Director Betsy is awesome. She has planned events for both the residents and families on a regular schedule. They bring in outside musical entertainment monthly and everyone is made to feel welcome. Moving a loved one to a Memory care facility is life changing for the family. The team at Crescent Landing helped the transition go as smoothly as possible. There is a feeling of community and fellowship that provides peace of mind for myself and my family. The new Director Kyle and Marketing Manager Sarah are wonderful additions- they are both warm and welcoming and have a true passion for their work. The entire staff get's a high five from me for all their hard work! Adela, Martha, Leslie, Lupe, Vince, Matthew and everyone - I appreciate you ALL!

Wow! We looked for a few months for a place for mom. Better than expected our first visit to see mom. We gave her 2 weeks to adjust. Mom is 84 years old and has mild Alzheimer’s. She loves it and has established herself with friends and thw activities. Staff is friendly and facility is kept very clean. They had therapy dogs which were great today.
