4.5 Poor

Terraces at Park Marino has 23 state citations (18 serious, 5 minor) and 4 verified complaints across 31 inspections since 2021, with the most recent inspection on January 7, 2026. Specific findings from complaint investigations include a 2021 case in which a new receptionist sent the wrong resident's emergency medical packet to a hospital during transport, with the correct records faxed approximately 4 hours after the error was discovered. A 2024 investigation documented that a resident developed an unstageable pressure wound on the left heel requiring hospitalization, where the wound measured larger at the hospital than when first noted at the facility by an outside wound specialist. In 2025, 2 complaint investigations examined allegations that staff did not evacuate a resident during the mandatory evacuation ordered due to the Eaton fire in January 2025. Other complaints filed over the review period, including allegations related to falls, staff treatment, infection control, and resident care, were investigated and found unsubstantiated or unfounded.


Why we like it

The Terraces at Park Marino is a 112-bed assisted living and memory care community on East Washington Boulevard in Pasadena, at the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains. Operating for 25 years, it offers assisted living, memory care, respite care, and a senior day program.

The community emphasizes a person-centered care philosophy with individualized assessment processes, and positions its culture — attentive staff who genuinely listen — as the key differentiator from other communities.

  • 25 years of person-centered care in Pasadena

    Licensed since 2000, The Terraces has a quarter century of experience in the same community. Their care philosophy centers on knowing each resident as an individual — adapting to changing needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach.

  • Senior day program for families not ready for full-time care

    A day program option is unusual among assisted living communities. This gives families a way to access structured activities and social engagement for their loved one without making the full-time move. It's also a natural way to evaluate the community.

  • Foothills location with walking paths and landscapes

    Situated at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains in Pasadena, the community offers walking paths and lush landscaping. The natural setting provides a peaceful environment that urban facilities can't replicate.

  • They dig into complex care needs rather than turning families away

    The Terraces specifically says they'll work with families whose loved ones have challenging or overlapping health issues to create a customized care plan. Ask about specific examples of complex care situations they've managed successfully.

  • Below-average safety record

    The FYI Safety Score™ is 5.6 out of 10 (Below Average), based on state inspection data. This reflects a higher-than-typical number of citations over the review period. Ask management directly about their inspection history and what specific improvements they've implemented.

  • 112 beds means a mid-to-large community feel

    At this capacity, The Terraces is a sizable operation. Common areas, dining, and activity spaces will be shared among many residents. Visit during a meal time to see the energy level and how staff interact with residents in real time.

  • Marketing promises require in-person verification

    The Terraces emphasizes listening, attentiveness, and individualized care in its messaging. When you visit, test these claims: Does staff greet residents by name? Do they know personal details? Is the environment calm or chaotic? The gap between marketing and reality reveals everything.
