We moved my mother with Alzheimer’s to Aegis in Ventura last December. Although the decision and process of physically moving my mother was an incredibly nerve-wracking experience for me and my family. I am happy to report she is doing well and LOVES her new home at Aegis. My mother takes full advantage of the freedom to safely roam the facility and outdoor courtyard and walks the path several times a day. She has made several friends, is comfortable with the caring staff, enjoys the fun outings, and raves about the food! She loves music and dancing and we have had so many cherished moments with her during the scheduled activities. I have seen a marked improvement in her disposition and no longer worry about her safety. She’s always thrilled to see us! Alzheimer’s is an unforgivable disease, but my mother is safe and happy at Aegis and I couldn’t be more thankful.

I enjoy all the activities offered, and everyone is just so friendly and nice—from my neighbors to the staff.

After one month of respite care at Aegis, my husband told me that he wanted to move in permanently. The care he receives at Aegis has provided him with an increased cognitive level, more independence, and new friendships. Residents are encouraged to participate in numerous interesting activities. The entire staff is friendly, caring, and devoted to each resident. [My husband’s] needs are met 24 hours a day, and he is at peace with his life. Being at Aegis has not only been good for him, but has allowed us to have a better, happier relationship and given me back a healthier life, physically and emotionally.
