Ventura County Senior Care: Ocean Breeze Estates at Beechwood - Camarillo, California

My sister was very well taken care of at Ocean Breeze. The staff was extremely kind. When hospice was needed, Dania and Evelyn made sure that everything was handled smoothly. Evelyn kept the family informed at all times, and that was very important and comforting.

I had a lovely visit at the Ocean Breeze facility at Beechwood. I was impressed with the cleanliness of the facility and the beautiful outdoor space this location offers! The amount of in-home appointments available and the transportation to and from appointments is a major plus. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable and offered a range of engaging activities for the residents there. I was encouraged to know that they are communicative with the families of residents and that my loved one's needs would be met. The whole staff was kind and patient. I was overall very impressed.

My mom has been cared for in the Blue Oak home for several years. She needs maximum assistance with all of her activities of daily living. The caregivers at the facility are very kind and loving to the residents and give very individual attention to each resident's needs and likes. Their "home cooked" meals always smell so good when I visit. The facility is always spotless. They have a nice yard available for family visits. I am always made to feel welcome to visit at any time while they maintain strict Covid protocols to keep everyone safe during the pandemic. Communication with all levels of the organization is very easy. Staff's coordination with therapists and other outside services works well, making it easier for the families.
I highly recommend this facility. Most of all, Mom's care is amazing!

I highly recommend Ocean Breeze. My Mother-in-law, Peggy, has been a resident Ocean Breeze for almost tree years. Before Ocean Breeze, Peggy lived in an assisted living facility in her own apartment. After she had a stroke, we moved her to Ocean Breeze. We wish we had moved her years earlier! The home environment Ocean Breeze offers has been so much better for her than the assisted living facility. For example, they have a communal room where the residents spend the majority of their time. This gives Peggy a connection with others that she needs.

Before the pandemic, my husband and I each individually visited daily. The staff always made us feel very welcome. We even brought our dog with us every day!

Peggy is confined to a wheel chair and Ocean Breeze makes every attempt to make life better for her. Also, the management has been very open to our suggestions and strives to provide the best care and environment they can.

My Mom has been at this facility going on two years and it really was the best decision we made for her. She was unable to live on her own however we weren’t sure how she would do in a typical large senior facility. This was the best of both worlds. She gets to still be in a cozy residential home but only with 4 other residents who she considers family. She loves the caregivers and staff who prepare 3 home cooked meals a day and always takes such good care of my Mom and her needs. She enjoys having meals at the dining room table with the other residents, she loves how the staff celebrate and decorate for the holidays and each of their Birthdays. She really enjoys the company. We made her bedroom resemble her bedroom from home, we brought her own bedroom furniture over to keep it familiar to her. It’s been a really nice experience and it’s taken a lot of weight off my shoulders as her daughter. I can relax and just enjoy my Mom and not have to be her constant caregiver. I would highly recommend these homes for your loved one.

The people at Ocean Breeze were very caring and thoughtful while my mom stayed at their facility. They helped us to connect with hospice when that time came, and became part of our family. We highly recommend this board and care for your loved one.

Any facility can provide care, but this feels like family!
I would recommend these homes for your loved ones.

Mom has been at this facility almost 3 years. She lived independently until having a fall at age 90. Initially she was skeptical to leave her home and her independence. Georgia, Evelyn and the caregivers were fantastic helping her (and me) through the transition. Soon she started appreciating the ‘extra help’ including helping with her rehabilitation to regain mobility.

Most of her caregivers have been there since she arrived, with minimal turnover. They are responsive via phone or text.

Mom enjoys her friendships and conversations with the other residents and caregivers and I rest assured Mom and her medical needs are taken care of daily.

Prior to COVID the home had an open door policy, and family was able to visit spontaneously- this was great as I am sometimes in the area for work, and it was great to stop by for a quick visit. During COVID, the facility has informed me they are following the protocols, sheltering the residents, with minimal visitors. While I miss taking Mom out for coffee or shopping, I am able to still stop by for a “behind the glass” visit to “see” mom, stay connected and celebrate holidays, birthdays, and special events. (Video visits are also available)

My mom is 92. She has dementia and assorted physical problems. My family feels blessed to have her in the care of the caretakers at Ocean Breeze/Beechwood. Dania, Evelyn, Georgia and the entire Beechwood team have taken care of all my mom’s needs and gone the extra mile to keep us informed. Spearheaded by Dania, they even helped us get doctor approval to make a change in her prescription drugs that has improved her quality of life.
