This is a continuing care community started by the Quakers. I am familiar with the skilled nursing portion of it, and it is great. But I've heard Friends House is planning to close down the skilled nursing part at some point.
It's located in central Santa Rosa, near shopping and markets. Many of the residents are politically and intellectually active and there are many organized activities.
The skilled nursing part of the facility is kind of institutional looking, but they offer really good care. They have a great staff, wonderful medical care. Even though it's a bit institutional, it's nice, clean, well run.
The food is good, and there's music, activities, and crafts to keep the patients engaged.
