This home was recommended by a friend, and while the staff are very nice, it was not a suitable place for my family member. The rooms are shared and very small. The bathrooms are also shared. It has a large day room for residents with lounger chairs to rest and watch television, listen to music or play games.

The medical team really gives enough individual attention to each of their client. Though it is a smaller facility compared to others. The staff specially customized their work to each individual need and they pay close attention to detail with hygiene and cleanliness. Generally speaking, they do a good job creating a good atmosphere. The team is very knowledgeable and they do the basics very well. They’re pricing is very straightforward, no counting nickel and dimes. Compared to other facilities they have “a la carte” style pricing with their care services. Overall, I would recommend this facility to other families.

This community felt very welcoming when we toured.
The staff are responsive, encouraging , have good insight and pay close attention to the residents. The menu looks good and they offer different options for different dietary needs. They have daily activities and the community is very clean. The housekeeping staff are very attentive. I would say to take a look at this community to see if it would work for your loved one.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the California regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about California regulations for Assisted Living.
