Simi Hills offers assisted living for older adults who do not require dementia support but do need daily medical oversight and personal care. An on-site massage therapist is available for residents who can benefit from regular therapeutic sessions, providing a clinical complement to primary care coordination with outside physicians. Staff remain awake and on duty throughout the night, allowing for prompt response to medical needs at any hour.

Beyond clinical services, caregivers are trained to provide full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from standby supervision to hands-on one-person transfers, and the building accommodates residents who use walkers or wheelchairs. Routine safety checks, clear lines of sight in common areas, and controlled access points support a secure environment without restricting personal movement.

Private and semi-private suites are cleaned regularly, and scheduled laundry service keeps personal clothing and linens in order. Not every room includes the same layout or storage options, so prospective residents and families should confirm specific features during a tour.

Meals are prepared on site, with menus adjusted for dietary needs and physician-ordered restrictions. A private dining room is available for family gatherings and special occasions, though this space is not attached to every unit and should be reserved in advance.

Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-friendly pathways, a barber and beauty shop, an exercise room, internet service, communal gardens, and a library. Scheduled transportation helps residents reach local appointments or shopping destinations. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.

Residents and their families say:

This community is often praised for its beautiful grounds, flowers, and walking paths, creating a pleasant outdoor environment for its residents. Many reviewers noted the community's cleanliness, organization, and the friendliness of the staff. The apartments, particularly the one-bedrooms and studios, are noted for their niceness and balconies with views. Activities such as bingo, crafts, and scheduled events like happy hours and barbecues provide opportunities for social engagement, and some residents specifically mentioned the joy of having pets welcomed. The dining experience received mixed feedback, with some residents enjoying the meals and variety, while others, including a family member voicing a continuous complaint about the quality of food, described it as terrible. Another recurring concern is the need for updating certain facilities within the apartments, like bathrooms, mirrors, countertops, and especially the carpets, which some imply may affect the overall smell of the place.

Moreover, many comments highlight the accessibility and thoughtfulness in the physical design of the community, such as ease of moving in a wheelchair and the completeness of amenities. The staff is generally commended for being helpful and responsive, positively impacting residents' experience. Nevertheless, there are suggestions for improvement like enhancing on-site activities to cater to a wider range of interests including art and literature, and addressing issues with some services not meeting expectations, such as the lack of transportation despite initial promises. While some reviews indicate concerns over costs, others feel that the value for money is good, especially considering the staff's attentiveness and the overall atmosphere of the community. Despite some criticisms, many residents and their families express satisfaction, often recommending the community to others.
