A Gabriela's Villa

Cheryl

A Gabriela's Villa was cozy. They only take up to five people and that's good because you get to know everybody really quick. The staff was very nice and very polite. I just popped in and popped out. When I visited, they were eating lunch. I only looked at the one-bedroom that was available. It was very small, but it was nice. It was just a little bedroom in someone's house. It was a clean place. The outside looked nice.

My husband is at Gabriela's Villa. He moved in there on November 9th. I am quite satisfied. He seems to get the attention that he needs, which on some days it's a lot, other days it's not as much. Two young gentlemen, that are part of the staff, seem to get along very well with him and that's a good mix, or a good combination of caregivers with patient. They are such friendly and attentive male caregivers. He's satisfied with the food. I've asked him, "How's the food?", and he'll say, "Okay." He's not complaining. I haven't heard any raves about the food, but that's not due to their cooking. He's just not very communicative right now. Activities are limited due to COVID. Outside guests cannot come in and present activities right now. The staff, however, may lead some singing together, similar to Karaoke. The residents are encouraged to stand up and move or dance to the music. Residents also can eat at the dining table together, or play cards. Six feet social distancing is implemented during dining as well as activities. Visiting is limited during this COVID time at Gabriella's Villa as at all Board & Care Homes. I only get to see him twice a week for 5 to 10 minutes each time, and that's a window visit. I'm on the outside of the window and he's on the inside. Sometimes we have a door visit. A door to the outside is open several inches. We can speak through the opening and hear each other. His room is good. It's small, but has room for a TV, a dresser, a bed, a food tray, a closet, and one large window on one wall. The staff is very friendly, very kind, attentive, and is meeting his needs. The price for the board and care is very reasonable. Overall, my husband’s care at Gabriella’s Villa has been very satisfactory.

I visited A Gabriela's Villa, and it was nice. The room was fine and like a home. The residents were watching television, and they said they had activities during the day. Their staff seemed very nice, and the house looked well kept.
