Sanctuary A Place for Mom

The Sanctuary works well with hospice. My family was ready to move my loved one into the community immediately after the tour, they were wonderful to wok with. The community works well with dietary restrictions such as a pureed diet. The staff were wonderful to work with as well. They called the family after my loved one passed, and the caregivers were crying in letting the family know.

The Sanctuary

The Sanctuary is a residential care home located in Torrance, a city in Los Angeles County’s South Bay region. The intimate home is ideal for seniors seeking a Californian lifestyle without abundant tourism. Within the city, residents immerse themselves in culture — time can be spent trying new cuisines, soaking up the sun at the beach, or exploring shops.

This home is also located half an hour from the heart of Los Angeles, enabling residents to sightsee and attend cultural events in the city. The community is close to several medical facilities to help ensure timely medical care. The Sanctuary boasts a traditional design on a tree-filled street, offering residents a comforting atmosphere to call home.

For residents looking to remain in a homelike environment without the worries of living alone, this home offers the perfect, liberating lifestyle. A 24-hour expert team is available to assist with personal care, medication management, transportation, meal planning, and more. Residents also benefit from an in-house salon, housekeeping, and laundry services. Plus, a schedule of activities and excursions keeps residents active.

This facility makes my mom feel at home

I am happy and pleased with the Sanctuary. It's a smaller community with only 6 residents and that's what I was looking for. The caregivers my Mother has are actually from where she was born and they speak her language which made the transition easier for her. The facility is homey and clean and I would recommend it to other families.

Delightful! Clean! Bright! Care is included in the cost, not extra. The piano in the living area caught my eyes, and I can just see Mother playing it!

Very Clean Place!!

My dear friend has recently made the move into this community and I could not be happier with how things are going for him. He is loving the food as well as the other activities with the other residents. They have a great patio where enjoys relaxing while he gets some fresh air. Another thing I really like is that it always smells so fresh and clean in the building. Overall it has been a great experience so far and I would defiantly recommend it to anyone.

A home for a loved one

I was very please with the staff members here. This community was bigger then what we were wanting at this time. I can only say that families should see the community and meet the staff for more information on the care that is offered here and the value for a loved one.

THE SANCTUARY

I was looking for a caring home for my 98 year old mother, who was at a stage that she needed 24-hour care. I looked at 11 different homes/facilities and chose The Sanctuary. It was small with only 6 women. It was the most serene place with a quiet peaceful atmosphere. The women were content and peaceful. It was everything I wanted for my mother. The owner and her staff of women are so wonderful and caring with the ladies. I thank God he led me to them.
