"This place is horrible, just stay away from this place , there is absolutely no compassion, no customer service, no responsibility, Rebeca seemed to be ok, but just a straight up liar, she will agree with you and promise to make sure everything will be good and it happens again, and again, and again. There is absolutely no accountability for this place , the turn over on employees is the worst I have ever seen. I so wish this place was different , I wish there was some accountability for this place , at the very least , don't llore to me in my face . Rebeca has lied to me numerous times, she has no accountability , the staff has no accountability , there are no rules nor regulations in this place. No wonder why every one is leaving at such an alarming rate. LIARS. Take your love ones somewhere else ." - dave… Read more

"If you’re looking for a retirement facility that is hotel-like, with upscale common areas, above average food, lots of activities, and you are independent, then Oakmont of Camarillo is for you. If you need assistance, think twice. When we moved dad into the assisted living side of the facility (they also have a memory care wing) in March of 2021 we were assured of getting additional services like assistance with toileting, escorts/reminders to go to meals, etc. We paid the additional fees for these but staffing fell short and he got maybe half of what we requested. The entire management team (both administration and medical) left the facility in Summer and were replaced with interim staff, and then finally permanent replacements recently, but by then you could notice serious gaps in service like caregivers, housekeeping, etc. We moved dad out this week to a memory care facility that could better care for his needs; his dementia had worsened, and we were so disappointed in staffing and lack of communication from administration that we didn’t choose Oakmont’s memory care wing, rather another community entirely. During the last week there we had asked for showering assistance for him, but after waiting 4 days for them to do it, and it never happening, we gave up and just waited until he got to his new community. Our lesson here has been: when looking at facilities, don’t be swayed by aesthetics like fancy furniture, vaulted ceilings and fireplaces; the care is more important and it’s a good thing to see lots of caregiver staff roaming around." - William… Read more

"I saw a lack of activity by the residents. No views, I have a great one where I live now, the ocean. No good place to walk outdoors. The food is ok." - Nancy… Read more

"I have been incredibly impressed by the staff and care my family has received at Oakmont of El Dorado Hills. My father went from not being very mobile to doing laps around the building, thanks to their physical and occupational therapy. The nurses and aid’s are all very friendly, attentive and compassionate. My mother recently moved from Oakmont of Folsom to this location, and I can certainly understand why - both locations offer exceptional care. I highly recommend Oakmont of El Dorado Hills and would not hesitate to encourage my parents or loved ones to move there."… Read more

"After searching for several weeks into facilities for my mother in law with Alzheimer’s, I finally found the Diamond 💎 I had been looking for that checked every one of my desires for her. It’s not a decision that was taken lightly she has been very special to us so we were rather picky finding a place for her. All I can say from start to actual placement it’s been an extreme pleasure dealing with Ronda, Tatiana and Giovanni as well as the rest of the staff. From the start of the process to the actual placement it was seamless. Today was move in day (we’d been dreading), however the rest of the staff was amazing as well. She started playing ball and doing crafts while we set up her room without hesitation.We couldn’t believe it! I am a person that worked in a professional atmosphere for my career, I have very high expectations and I’m big on reviews so I wouldn’t give a great review if it wasn’t warranted. Thank you to each person involved and extremely caring & friendly staff!" - Cindy… Read more

"I would give 0 stars if I could. This place is a hell hole for one. They don't have enough food for the residents, so people have to share food!!! Then staff tell them that there isn't enough money to buy more food !! The second one is that they are under staffed they only have one caregiver for all six cottages for the whole night. They give the residents safety pendants, but they don't work, and when they do work, staff ignore them. My grandma was using her pendant, and no one came. i came down there and found a nurse playing on her phone as another woman was screaming in pain. The nurse just sat there and didn't even check on her!!!! Now there are some staff that do their absolute best they can, and I thank them, but half of these nurse's do not care about the residents. Also, the med techs dont even know what each resident takes, and when a resident asks what the medicine is, they just tell them to take it. The residents are not being taken care of. it's really sad to see" - sam… Read more
