Oakmont of East Sacramento

Oakmont of East Sacramento has been fine, it was just my mother causing drama day after day. It has nothing to do with the community, she's just not happy. The staff members are excellent, they put up with her moods and her giving notice to leave then rescinding the notice, then getting her to the doctor's office and trying to work with her in a wheelchair. It's just almost every day something with her, but the staff that are there are wonderful people. One of them came down with COVID over the weekend and that's caused some additional problems. Her apartment is quite nice, and it's brand-new. It just opened the week before she moved in. We looked at several and so far it's comparable, there was no comparison to Oakmont. Because it's new, the rugs were brand-new and there were no chips on the paint on the walls. There's no feeling of having somebody lived there before or even passed away, it's just a wonderful room for her. They have a full dining room, a hair salon, a workout room, and almost every hour from 10:00 until the early evening they have some kind of activity. Of course now, after last weekend with the COVID issue that's all come to a halt for now at least. They have a lovely patio to sit outside, just so many amenities, and they have a wine and beer bar and I was startled by that. It's like a party house, it's lovely. They have a grand piano and they have somebody come in once a week and put on some kind of a concert for the residents. They also have other kinds of musical groups come in and put on some concerts. They have a movie theater, they have a large gathering room so if the residents wanna have a big birthday party that holds about 50 people and a smaller more intimate dining room that can hold 20 people. I've eaten there, the food is good and you can order off of a menu. It's just a set menu they have every day like a restaurant. The layout of the facility is beautiful. The pricing is comparable.

We have chosen Oakmont of East Sacramento, but we're not moving in yet because of the COVID situation. We visited the place, it's clean, well kept up, and I like the idea that I can get there in like two minutes. I looked at all of the levels of care. My husband will be in the memory care and he'll have his own private room. The memory care building wasn't finished yet, but I have toured a building that's exactly like it. We also saw a room exactly like he would have that they had set up to show you what it would look like. The rooms all had nice views. The rooms were all clean since they're brand new, and spacious enough for one person. The dining rooms are beautiful, they have two dining rooms, and also a rec room. The staff was very gracious, kind, and helpful, so we have no complaints.
