Not one but ALL. Are wonderful here I almost don’t want to leave!😇🙏😁 many thanks.. especially Jessica R . In activities we just started a project and shes already spent 2 hours with me!! Debbie
The nurses and staff are great they deserve 5 stars but the facility needs major renovation. The case manager had already decided to have my dad discharged knowing very well he wasn’t ready. My dad ended up falling at home the same day of his discharge. I wish he was at the newer facility above
Happy with care provided for my friend. Thank you to Angel, Nurse, Angela, Yazmin, Jennifer and Jahana
Many of the staff are caring and fun, which is a great combination 🙌 Marian Gonzales helped me in a huge way with insurance. I truly appreciate her wisdom and assistance 🙏
My wife was at this facility for about two months. She was treated very well. She had physical therapy and occupational therapy and it was frequent and helped her very much. From the top people here to the workers that clean the room everyone was wonderful. I recommend La Paloma healthcare and I am thankful for all they did for my wife and me during this difficult period of time!
I have been to Property many time to visit clients. They are well served and good PT Staff at La Paloma. Perfection is not possible, but there are caring staff, facility and grounds are tranquil and clean.
I was at La Paloma Healthcare Center for a cellulitis infection and to regain strength from dealing with the infection for a very long time. Were it not for the food, I might give a 5-star review, but the food was inexcusably bad. I, and others, ordered out, or had friends and family bring food. I was there for nutrition as well as healing – nutrition was not there for me. The staff was friendly and helpful on all occasions: For me, the CNAs, Nurses, Drs Yumiyyu Gammada, MD, and Jeffrey L.Newman were available, personable, knowledgeable, and helpful. The Physical Therapy and Occupational therapists were outstanding in their attentiveness to the patient which included their knowledge, creativity, and caring, personable treatment. I wish they had an outpatient extension! Also, to note: The lovely grounds! The backyard is beautifully kept and a serene place to walk (or roll!) about and just breathe. There are tables on the patio where patients and their guests can have picnics. Fran P.
My mom is so happy here. Her nurse Lee is one of the most nicest ladies.
I was here about 4 years ago, the care i got was amazing. I met so many amazing people who I truly felt that cared about my health and loved what they did and were not here for just a check. Some people including, Jacki Aguilar, Francisca Garcia, Silvia Sanchez, Monica, Alma Moralez, Jazmin Ramirez, Celia. I am truly grateful and if i could give more stars i would.
To everyone: my wife was recently taken to La Paloma (“the dove”) Healthcare Institue for recovery and therapy post surgery. An excellent experience, much more than was anticipated and expected! Skilled nursing with round-the-clock attention and assistance, the attention and care of four (!) doctors who studied and monitored my wife’s progress. Medicines and such immediately available as prescribed. A caring staff. Food quite good, and steps above routine hospital food! Post-surgery therapists were knowledgeable, considerate, and experienced. All in all, a professional staff with a very humane touch. My wife and I rate La Paloma Healthcare a full five stars and more. Thank you all so much!
Myah was really cool and helpful
🌟 Review for La Paloma Healthcare Center – Oceanside, CA During my two-year medical hiatus, La Paloma Healthcare Center became more than just a skilled nursing facility—it became a place of healing, consistency, and perseverance. From the moment I arrived, I felt a sense of hospitality and warmth that carried me through one of the most challenging chapters of my life. 🏥 Facility & Comfort The center itself is bright, clean, and thoughtfully designed. The photos reflect what I experienced daily: open spaces, comfortable rooms, and inviting common areas that feel less like an institution and more like a home. The gardens and gathering areas provided a sense of peace and normalcy, which was invaluable during recovery. 👩⚕️ Staff & Care The staff at La Paloma embody the word family. Nurses, CNAs, therapists, and coordinators were not only professional but also deeply compassionate. Their attentiveness was consistent—day after day, month after month. They didn’t just provide medical care; they offered encouragement, patience, and genuine human connection. That enduring support gave me the strength to persevere. 💙 Hospitality & Support What stood out most was the way the team treated me as a whole person, not just a patient. They balanced medical excellence with emotional support, ensuring I always felt heard and respected. Whether it was physical therapy, daily routines, or simply sharing a kind word, their commitment never wavered. 🌿 A Place of Healing La Paloma is not just a healthcare facility—it’s a community built on trust, care, and resilience. For me, it was a place where perseverance was nurtured, where comfort was prioritized, and where I was able to rebuild my strength with dignity. ✨ Final Thoughts I am profoundly grateful for the excellent, consistent, and enduring care I received here. La Paloma Healthcare Center will always hold a special place in my story of recovery, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a facility where compassion and professionalism walk hand in hand.
The anger and disgust I have at this moment for this facility is palpable. A family member was taken here after suffering a stroke. He is full Navajo, and his hair was completely shaved off without his consent. A simple conversation to trim it if needed could have been done, but he was treated as a dirty, unkempt old man instead of the family elder that he is. Family was able to move him to a better facility, but it’s heartbreaking when he asks to braid his hair and then remembers it’s gone. He also has bed sores and has lost a lot of weight. The negligence he endured is reflected in his appearance and health. I pray we are not too late to help him recuperate from the stroke.
I had a very good care service from everyone staff is wonderful i miss everyone therapy staff does outstanding work thanks to everyone i will request to go back if ever needed
I don’t usually write reviews but I am pleased to write this one. I was discharged from La Paloma last week after spending 3 months there. I was admitted there due to an infection in both legs caused by weeping lymphedema. I also had a stage 4 open wound on my left heel. Thanks to the amazing wound care team Sharon, Jonna and Zachary, the infection is cleared up and my legs have stopped weeping for the first time in years. I am very grateful to them. Being there for so long, I got to know the staff pretty well. They are a wonderful group of people. The nurses and CNAs work very hard to care for their patients and they are also fun to be around. They made my stay very pleasurable. I’m not a person that likes to exercise but the OT and PT teams made therapy a lot of fun. I actually looked forward to my daily sessions with them. If the need ever arises, I would return to La Paloma without any hesitation.

A relative was admitted to La Paloma for few weeks, mainly for physical therapy. She recovered pretty soon thanks to your amazing Physical Therapy department and also nurses and CNAS. We also would like to express our gratitude to Saray the Receptionist, she was always very professional and supportive always receiving us with a big smile and care.

Had a patient stay and said a specific nurse was rude and mean. I spoke with her once as well and had the same experience, they should really train their staff better in being more empathetic with the patients they care for

A month ago our family had to hospitalize my grandmother she was at La Paloma for some time, in the beginning we were very impressed by how welcoming and supportive your staff was especially Sarah the front desk person she was always so welcoming and understanding what we were going through.

When i was rehabilitating here, the workers were always so kind and friendly. The rehab team helped me get prosthetics and taught me to walk again. The food was good and the medication was always on time. I would recommend this place for anyone needing skilled nursing!
