Why we like it

Kathleen Care Home is a 6-bed residential care home in Diamond Bar, operated under the Summit View Home Care brand. The facility has been serving the Diamond Bar community and surrounding areas since 2008, offering assisted living, dementia care, and hospice care in a family-owned, private-pay setting.

Summit View emphasizes a low 3-to-1 patient-to-caregiver ratio, CPR and first-aid certified staff, and regular state inspections, along with practical services like Wi-Fi, smart-TV capabilities, and scheduled transportation.

  • 18 years of family-owned operation

    Established in 2008 and family-owned since the beginning. Nearly two decades of continuous operation in a small-home setting signals stability and a care model that has stood the test of time.

  • 3-to-1 patient-to-caregiver ratio

    With 6 beds and this staffing ratio, there are at least 2 caregivers present at any time. That level of attention in a small home means your loved one won't be waiting long for help. Verify the overnight staffing ratio when you visit.

  • Dementia care and hospice under one roof

    Summit View is licensed for both dementia care and hospice support in the same home. If your loved one's needs change over time, they may be able to stay in a familiar environment rather than transferring to a new facility.

  • Modern amenities in a small-home setting

    Every room has free Wi-Fi and smart-TV capabilities. These seem basic but are genuinely uncommon in many 6-bed homes. Staying connected to family and entertainment matters for daily quality of life.

  • Private-pay only

    Summit View is a private-pay facility and does not accept Medi-Cal or other government assistance. Factor this into your budget planning — all costs come directly out of pocket or from long-term care insurance.

  • Diamond Bar is east of central LA

    Located in the eastern San Gabriel Valley, Diamond Bar is a significant drive from most parts of LA. If family members are coming from the Westside or central city, factor in the commute for regular visits.
