Assisted Living Communities in Sebastopol, CA

"Ivy Park at Santa Rosa had a good restaurant. It looked clean. It looks pretty. I like the colors. The staff was very friendly and open, and they had some more of the little perks, like they had a hair salon and they had a little general store where you could get the basic necessities. What I liked the least was that it wasn't quite out in nature. They were welcoming, knowledgeable, and accommodating, because apparently my appointment had gotten canceled, but I didn't know that, so they still took us on. They had the dining area, two courtyards, and some gardening. They had a small general store that's open at certain times for amenities and they had a hair and nail salon."

"I was very impressed with Chancellor Place. For my parents, this facility would have been a wonderful choice. They have activities. They would take their residents out once in a while. However, I just don't like that they're going to the casino especially with my dad who had a gambling problem and I couldn't have him go there. "

"Oakmont Gardens offered many outside activities and other things that seemed good for people who wanted to be more active. The apartments were sufficient, and the large facility was not appealing to my dad. The whole area is a historically senior living community, and so there are varying levels of housing for those types of seniors. It's pretty diverse, but probably too overwhelming for my dad. It's like a little city. The staff who gave the tour was very helpful. The facility seemed clean but a bit older."

"Healdsburg was a nice location. I liked the little vegetable garden that they have in the back that you could work in. Also, they had some animals there, which I thought was a nice aspect of it since I'm a country girl. The people were all very nice. I thought the food was rather bland. I was not impressed with it. It was kind of a small place. That's what my friend said about it. I think they only have like 35 people or something and it seemed to be rather religious-oriented. So, she kind of thought that she wouldn't be as comfortable there. She'd rather be in a place with around 100 people and have more access to finding someone that she would hit it off with more."

"I have been a resident. I was really comfortable with it. I do graphics stuff and poetry, and they have activities to meet my needs. Physically, it was an OK place, and located in the part of town that provides a lot of activities, such as food places outside the campus. It was physically attractive and socially pleasant, and so I was happy there. The food was fine, as well as the variety and the quantity, and it was satisfactory and healthy. The staff was fine and I was comfortable with them."

"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 "

"My mother chose this community. I visited her there, and it was very nice and very clean. They have quite a few activities on the board. They have outings and bingo. It looks nice. "

"My partner has moved into Serenity Villa. I like everything about it. He has a very nice room with lots of light. The people working there are fantastic. They're extremely helpful and friendly, and they do their job. I have no qualms at all. The food is great. I've had a couple of meals with them. They also accommodate the special diets of their residents. They have a lot of different services, like if a resident needs care with a dentist or has a problem with his feet. The place is very clean and comfortable. The activities are fantastic. They have different people that come in with music and they have exercises. I'm extremely happy with this place."

"This is an ideal setting for people who don't need to move around a lot or are mentally compromised and who prefer the intimate feeling of a home. The location is a bit tucked away"”in a quiet and beautiful leafy grove. It is a beautifully maintained, very affordable home that shelters just six residents, and it has professional caregivers 24/7. Most of the residents have some degree of dementia, but staff members treat one and all with the utmost respect. Also, the woman who runs the place, Ethel, is an angel. Nothing is too much trouble for her. If a resident wants to go for a drive, she will organize a driving trip. If an elder wants to play monopoly, she will organize a monopoly board. Finally, the food served there is tasty, thoughtfully presented and beautifully served. T he price is about $2,500 per month, all inclusive, which seems quite reasonable given the care and setting. "

"I went to Victoria's Place. The gentleman who owns the place, owns 3 of them, and they're decent homes. They have about 4 patients, 2 caregivers, home-cooked meals, and they take them to doctors. I liked that there's no price-cap on the services. However, we're not ready to move my brother-in-law yet. I really think that the person who owns the facility knows what he does, he outlines it very well for you, and the place is clean and tidy."

"I like Hanna House because it is small and it is like a group home. There are only five patients, and it is very close to where I live. I also have good reviews of it, and those are the main reasons why I chose it for my dad. He is fine there, and he really likes it. They all have Parkinson's, and my dad doesn’t do too much. Most of them are just bedridden, on their wheelchairs and around 90, so they just watch TV. I see what they eat, and, as all of them have Parkinson's, they have soft food, like casseroles, and the meat is so tender. Everything is fresh and of good nutrition. His room is fine, and it is a good size. The staff is very good. They really take care of him and help him take showers, help him in the bathroom, and they have an intercom so they can hear what is happening in the room. They have video at night so they know if they are up at night. "

"I toured Redwood Senior Living Santa Rosa, and I thought it was a good place. It's not as fancy as others, but the man who ran the place was a very good person. I walked through the facility, and it seems to be very clean. Everyone seemed as happy as they could be. The rooms are a little small, but price is a little bit more reasonable. Staff seemed very efficient and concerned about their patients."

"This is an assisted living facility in the heart of Santa Rosa, in an older Victorian neighborhood filled with pleasant, upscale, well tended homes. The facility itself is a Victorian home that was recently remodeled. It's really beautiful--a large home with communal space--and it has a very homey feel to it. The 8 rooms are huge, all doubles. Residents can bring their own furnishings, or the owner will provide furnishings. The grounds are nicely landscaped, with a communal terraced area and an outdoor room with all glass walls. Most of the residents are fairly high functioning; there's no memory care. I know the owner, and she's very dedicated. Her philosophy is to find homes in nice neighborhoods and convert them to assisted living. She hires CNAs--many have personal experience as family caregivers--and also has a nurse on duty 24 hours. The food is excellent. They have a licensed chef to cooks for all three of the facilities owed by Loving Care Homes. They don't offer much selection, but the food is good. The food is cooked at this home in a nice, large kitchen (that's also used for some cooking activities) and then catered to the other two homes--Elfa's Home and Victoria's Place. They offer daily light activities: exercise, field trips to the mall or movies or similar outings, and arts and crafts. "
