The safety of our Residents and Staff are of primary concern to us, the governing body of the Manor of Ojai. If the situation should change in the near future, we will consider re-instating the previously enacted policy allowing for visitation at the facility.
Independent and Assisted Living
Manor of Ojai is a wonderful home with excellent care and compassionate, attentive caregivers. Halina personally trains all of her caregivers with love and maintains a high standard. My mother has enjoyed being there since the first day she arrived. The meals are delicious and the care she has received is excellent. This is truly a home with a family atmosphere. The dining room is large and pleasant, as is the living area. The residents enjoy watching the Hallmark Channel. There are also games and other interactive activities available. The front balcony is lovely as is the large, enclosed back patio area. What I have liked best is that the caregivers put all of their attention into engaging with the residents and are happy to do so. This is truly a home you can trust to take consistently good care of your loved one.
My father was at the Manor for a few months before his passing, and although I live out of state my local family was very pleased with the care he received at the facility. I was able to meet Halina at my father’s memorial and she seemed a genuinely caring person.
My first impression of the Manor was that it looks and feels like a home. It is in a beautiful and quiet residential neighborhood with mature trees and landscaping that make for a happy, comfortable, home- like environment. My family member has been at the Manor since 2023 and she is thriving. She loves the food and the parrot and it is clear that she is being well cared for. It is incredibly difficult to moved a loved one into a care facility, and my family feels comfort knowing that she is in Halina’s caring hands.
My 97 yr old Aunt Amelia stayed here in 2020 for a mth before she passed to Glory with the Lord & she looked happier than she had in yrs. She sat with the owners dad & enjoyed his company. She did exercises with the other ladies as the owner text me pics comforting me that she was enjoying her life as I worked. She did crafts, watched tv, ate real good. She was happy there in her last mth of life. Grateful for this place & the experience, attention & love that my aunt received here
My 91 year old grandpa has been at the Manor of Ojai for 3 months now, after breaking his hip and becoming bedbound. We toured several facilities and picked the Manor, and I am so thankful that this is where he ended up!
I, or a family member, have been in to visit him daily since he moved in, and I only mention that in my review to say that we have spent a lot of time there over the past three months! We have gotten to know Halina, the owner, and her staff and they are all wonderful. It takes a special type of person to do elder care, and Halina has been doing this for a long time. She is clearly one of those special people!
We have been happy with his care, they feed him, change him, see to all his needs. Halina takes the time to talk with him, and he tells us everyone there taking care of him is really nice. It is a blessing to know that he is being well taken care of! Another good point is the reasonable monthly rate at the Manor, it is more affordable than some other options we looked at, and we preferred the Manor over the more expensive places anyways!
Although the Manor is a fairly large facility, it always feels comfortable and welcoming, and it feels more like an actual home, not a hospital. It’s an older building but it has been well kept up, so it has a bit of a nostalgic feeling to the place, and everything is always clean!
Unfortunately my grandpa is unable (and unwilling) to move from bed to enjoy the rest of the facility, but several of the other residents, who always look clean and well taken care of, are often gathered in the day room to watch movies, or in the dining room after meals or to hear the piano when a lady comes to play for them. The large dayroom has comfortable couches and chairs to watch TV, and a table for bingo or puzzles. The dining room is pleasant with lots of natural light, and always decorated for the current holiday or season. They cook homemade meals, and the food always smells delicious!
This last chapter of life is not easy, but we feel blessed to have my grandpa in a caring environment!
