Assisted Living Communities in American Canyon, CA

"Piners Guest Home is amazing. The staff are very caring, and personable. The facility is immaculate. My Mother has been there three years now, and I could not sing their praises enough. They care deeply about the well being and comfort of all the residents and my mother is so happy there "

"I went to The Inn on Villa Lane. They showed us some of the model apartments. I'm going to bring my friend for lunch next week. Then she can see what the food is like because that's one of her main criteria. I thought it was very nice. The staffing was good, and the services they offer were excellent. They take care of their meds and laundry. They have an alert system. If she falls or if she needs anything, she has a button that she can press to get help, even if it's just to walk down to the dining room. I think that's really important. There are staff there 24/7. It's easy to get around. My friend has a walker, so that's something that we always look for to make sure that the accessibility is good and the in and out is good. They have nice landscaping. There are areas outside that she could sit and enjoy the sunshine in the summer. The dining room is very pleasant and nicely laid out. I just thought it was really good. The menu looked really nice. There are a lot of choices, which I think is really important. I was really impressed. They seemed to be really prepared for the things that she's gonna need. It seemed really well thought out. The staff that is there have been there for a long time. They get a lot of training. They seemed very knowledgeable, which is important. They don't just hire people off the street. I thought it was really good. I hope that my friend does, too. The staff was very friendly and very willing to answer questions. They know what they're doing. They don't seem to have a lot of turnover. It tells you something important about the facility that the staff is maintained over a period of time. It was nice, clean, and bright. The hallways and everything is accessible. Everything is designed for seniors that need assistance. There were handrails, elevators, and all those kinds of things. It's quite a bit more expensive."

"Diana was the one we worked with us here and she was phenomenal and so helpful. She gave great insights on how to help mom in the best way. Their amenities were outstanding. They had two 5-star restaurants and then another nice restaurant. They had snacks out that people could come and get at any time. So it wasn't just three routine meals. They were open all the time with snacks and if you wanted something extra, you could get it. You could either have the food taken to your room, like room service, or you could go to the restaurant. They had a happy hour in their general area so it was just phenomenal. It was luxury resort living. Diana showed us two studios and a one-bedroom. The studios were very nice with had very different layouts that would work well for anybody. On the first one that we walked down, I noticed that the kitchenette was a little bit further from the bedroom and the living area, which in our instance was a little bit of a walk, but for a regular person, it was just right there. The next studio was more of an all-inclusive. It was very clean. They had one that looked onto the courtyard in the center with all of its fountains and flowers, while the other one was secluded, like a parking lot kind of view that looked over the tennis courts and things like that. The one-bedroom was very spacious and very nice. They had very short hallways, so there was not a ton of walking and it's soundproof. You could be in the hallway and not hear any of the other residents' televisions or anything. It was well done."

"I toured Westmont of Pinole about a week ago. I had positive feedback from a couple of their residents. I like the rooms. They had shared rooms that were divided and shared rooms that were undivided. The place was cleaned. They had an aviary with birds, and that was nice. The residents were in the common areas where they were playing games. They had activities scheduled during the day. The dining area looked OK."

"My mother has lived here for several years. Her apartment is quite nice and the staff and caregivers are very loving and kind to her. She enjoys activities and they do a great job even though the past couple years have been more difficult with having to cut back some of the group outings and rides, they have still made my mother's life so much better than it would have been if she was home alone and isolated. The friendships and opportunities to enjoy good conversations with friends has helped keep her in good spirits. I would highly recommend Cogir of Napa Road to anyone who doesn't want to be lonely at home anymore."

"I will move into Cogir of Sonoma Senior Living. There was a wide-open common room, and some women were playing a card game, but for the most part, there was nobody in there, and that was fine because they were mostly out doing stuff, so that was one of the things that impressed me, that people were still very active. The common area was very nicely appointed and looked very comfortable. It would be a place where I would want to bring people or go in and sit by myself and relax. I went to a couple of places, and you were only allowed to put something on your door, like a wreath. I noticed that at Cogir of Sonoma, there are entry decorations on the floor, which is fine, going in the entry, and going towards your door. Somebody put out one of those butler statues and that kind of thing, and I like that. There's a little bit of flexibility. We were not there during the regular lunchtime serving time. So, it was around two o'clock, and the food was delicious. It was very good. Everybody around my table, kids and adults, ate it right up. The staff was over the top. She was good."

"The Bluffs at Hamilton Hill seemed a little bigger, which was good. I liked that. The location is very nice. It's an extension of where the old hospital was and the building itself, the structure, is very nice and very, very well located. It's essentially almost across the street from where we live. They had a snack bar and there was a kind of a little cafe, not a big restaurant, with few tables and a coffee bar. I went into a couple of different rooms that were slightly different sizes, but they seemed to be a little larger and a little more homelike rather than a studio or hotel. Jeanette was excellent."

"I have an application to Carlton Senior Living Pleasant Hill. I saw the assisted living, and it was a very good experience. They're so friendly, I like the layout of the apartment, all the services, the laundry, and the meals in the rooms. They have very nice one-bedroom apartments. The people I saw in the hallways seemed happy."

"I went to see Oakmont of Novato. It was very nice, very modern, very clean and very new. I didn't get to interact with the staff, just with the director who took me on tour and she was very nice. The room I saw was very nice. I saw that the residents had just played a particular game but I wasn't there long enough to see any of the activities. I went to their memory care portion so the amenities are a little bit more limited. I didn't see the assisted living part of it, which I believe has all of those things. They have a patio area for the memory care people but I think they have a larger area for assisted living. I liked the director who toured me. She seemed to be very knowledgeable and very caring. I also saw the guest menu and it seemed fine. "

"The staff was incredibly kind from the moment we walked in. We felt welcome and supported.The facility was clean and well-maintained and had a warm home like atmosphere."

"I toured Atria Tamalpais Creek. I thought it was the best fit considering the activities and homey feel. It seemed like it was the best fit for my mother's personality. Her room is a typical studio with a small kitchenette. It has a high ceiling, a balcony with a view and trees, and a parking lot. The staff has been very friendly and helpful. We had lunch there. My mom was happy with that, it was not too fussy, and it's appropriate for where she's at right now."

"My husband has moved into Rose Cottage. They're very responsive to my needs. They take good care of my husband, and he seems to be doing well there. They keep up with everything. They make sure he has what he needs, medication-wise and food-wise. The least I like is the type of food. One reason why we chose it was the price. The staff was very friendly. They listen to what I say. They communicate with me if he needs something. The rooms are fine and meet our needs. He eats in his room, but they have a table if people want to eat out there in the dining area. He can get up, but they have to use a Hoyer lift, so they have that. They're very nice people. It's not the fanciest place, but it has a homey atmosphere. I'm happy there."

"Paramount House Senior Living was well-maintained and updated. It had more of a hotel feel to it versus a convalescent home. Jennifer gave me the tour and she was very helpful and seemed to know all of the residents by name and said hello to them. She was very aware of the place and even gave me the pros and cons of it. Although she gave me a lot of information, it felt a lot like she was trying to sell me her product. The memory care was coded and secured so no one could just walk away. The facility is laid out well. Every resident has their own room with their own half bath. I was introduced to the staff (someone that did just medicine and then a coordinator that was there on-site at the time for my tour). They answered my questions and were very pleasant. They seemed to be interacting with the residents and speaking with them directly or helping them."
