Summerfield Senior Living

Joseph

Summerfield Senior Living was a clean and well-run facility. Everybody was nice. I spoke to a lady by the name of Brenda, and she was very thorough, very thoughtful, and seemed to be genuinely interested. It was just a little dated because it was probably built in the 70s, but the rooms were fairly large. It's just that some of the rooms I think had half hard floor and then half carpeted floor, so I was surprised. Being an assisted living place, I thought it would just be all carpet making it easy for people with walkers and stuff to move around in. They also had med techs who would do the medication monitoring. Meals were provided. They had activities, a garden, scheduled tours to go shopping, and a lot of games and activities. I think it was a clean and an affordable option. This was kind of in Marysville, which was 40 miles north of Sacramento. The pricing was a little bit more competitive or more budget friendly.

We looked at the apartments at Summerfield Senior Living. It was very good and clean. They had a social area and dining room. The staff member who showed us around was good. She showed us two different sizes of apartments, and they were both good. The facilities were clean, nice, organized, the dining area was nice and big, and they showed us the area where there could be gardening. It was well maintained.

My father will be moving into Summerfield Senior Living. We chose them because they were the first ones to call and tell us that there was an opening. The staff has been very gracious, very caring, and they called me on a numerous basis. The activities seem adequate. They have bible study and other activities.

Summerfield Senior Living is an older facility, but it's well run. The food is good, and the staff is good. They're all very caring. It's a very nice place, but they will not allow pets. It's large, but it's pleasantly laid out and residents can wander up and down the halls. The halls are well appointed with many paintings and statuettes. It's all on one ground floor. The dining area is upscale. There's a game area that's bright and cheerful, a sitting and computer area, a library, and an on-site hairdresser. It's a nice community. I have a friend that's in their memory care section. Medications are administered by staff. The food is very good and well presented on nice China, there are goblets, nice silverware, cloth napkins, and the residents are served at their table. They have a chef. I had a nice dining experience.

The people at this facilitated have become my valued and competent partners in helping me and my family meet my mother's very specific needs during this difficult time in her life. Summerfield staff and administration have listened to me, guided me, laughed with me, and hugged me when I needed it most. They obviously love my mother. They graciously accept her, no matter what her mood or behavior is at any given moment. They handle all of the work associated with her long and ever changing list of mediations with apparent ease. I could go on and on about the literally dozens of people who have helped me with unique and distressing challenges I was having with my mother on a given day. I jokingly tell everyone that I am planning to live there in a few years when I need some extra support in my life, and I expect them all to still be there for me the way they have been there for my mom. I could not give them a higher recommendation.

The staff at Summerfield always go out of their way to ensure that residents and family are treated with dignity and respect at all times. Staff communication with family regarding resident status is proactive and clear. Issues raised to management are addressed fully and quickly upon notification. The facilities are exceptionally well maintained and tastefully decorated. A large range of activities are offered to residents on a frequent and regular basis. Staff thoughtfully ensures that all residents are engaged as appropriate and fitting with their individual needs. Regular activities include occasional bus trips to various restaurants for lunch and other viewing of other local attractions. The med tech staff does a reasonable job of seeing that residents receive physician ordered care and ensuring that prescribed meds don't run out unexpectedly.

My mother is a resident of Summerfield Senior Living. I have been very impressed by the staff. They are caring, helpful, friendly, and compassionate. They are a joy to work with. I live in Colorado. I sleep very well, because I am not concerned about my mother's care. The food that I have had at Summerfield has been quite good. Mom says she likes all aspects of being there. She gets along well with the staff and they take a keen interest in her and how she is doing. The staff is responsive to her needs and desires. Mom is happy and seems to be doing well at Summerfield for which I am very grateful for. All I can say is Thank You to the staff.

Dad has been at Summerfield for a number of years. He is happy, cared for and the family is glad he is there. I receive a call immediately if there are any issues. They have activities daily to interest and stimulate the residents. Also, they hold special events and bus trips of a broad variety. Dad is a Veteran, as well as many resident men and women. Summerfield honors them in many ways.

Summerfieldl's memory care community is very impressuve. They are less expensive with more staff members and more qualified staff members (medically speaking). The place is cleaner, brighter, and open, and everything about it is more welcoming and not depressing at all. The private room I chose for my mother is absolutely spacious, and it's very nice. They have every activity, from puzzles to games they play to try go get their memory going, to bingo, card games, and they have a library, and all kinds of activities for her. The residents always seem happy, clean, and have had no complaints about the place at all. The room has a lot of large windows for natural light to come in.

The staff was all very professional at Summerfield Senior Living. I actually put down a deposit for a room for my mom. It was the best option available. The room was small, but my mom doesn't need anything big, and it seemed clean. The residents looked fine, and I don't think anybody was unhappy or upset. The manager was very polite. The facility looked clean and everything looked fine.

Summerfield Senior Living was very nice, clean, had help close by, and had plenty of space in the rooms. The food was good and tasty. I saw the rec room where the residents could play pool and watch TV.

I was very pleased with what I saw at Summerfield Senior Living. The residents were like living at home with their own furniture. Everybody's happy, and some of them still drive. It was very clean, and it had a feeling of happiness, which made me feel good. I saw the activity room, and the dining room was very comfortable and not really formal. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The courtyard and sitting areas were open, fun, decorated, and clean.

I visited Summerfield Senior Living and spoke with the marketing director who was very gracious, knowledgeable, did an excellent job telling me how they operated the facility, and gave me the information about the costs and their facilities. I would recommend it to anyone who was looking for an assisted living facility because it looked well maintained and clean. I sampled the food, and it was excellent.

Summerfield was a very beautiful place, and the people were very nice. It reminded me of a high-class hotel. We saw the nice community room. They don't leave the people in their rooms; they take them out, which was nice.

I wasn't really impressed with Summerfield Senior Living. I guess the atmosphere was not very welcoming. The facilities were OK, and the rooms weren't lacking anything but at the time, I wasn't that impressed. I'm sure the staff is fine.

Everything my mom is going to need was at Summerfield, and it was close to home. They have ice cream socials, monthly eating, and dinner with people, and the room is adequate. The food is fine; she is happy with it. They have menu, and the food looked like they were home made.

It’s been a good experience with Summerfield. They’re very attentive, I liked the food, and the dining area was like a restaurant. The room is adequate for her needs. The staff has been very good, and we have no complaints.

We choose Summerfield for my mom mainly because it is local. I like this place. My mom is in a companion room that's large enough to each have their own bed, night stand or lamp, chair, and dresser. They have their own private bathroom and a kitchenette. The staff gives 24/7 care, and the service is fine. She has been there for a month and a half. They have a chef on staff who cooks three meals a day plus snacks, coffee, and juices, whatever they want. They keep them very active, which I like. They have a schedule of things for them to do all day long. There areexercise classes and games for everybody like memory games or watching a program together.

I visited Summerfield Retirement and the interior and physical was just gorgeous, pretty, new, very clean, and upscale. The lady who showed us around was very nice, sat down with us, talked, and explained their facilities and what they offered. The rooms were large and I have an aunt that lives there and she is well-satisfied with the food. We saw people mingling and interacting and my aunt is very pleased with the activities. They have outside activities where they take them in little buses to different events, and they have people come there. The director is willing and open to listen to their ideas of what they want and try to accommodate their needs. The pristine condition of the building is what I like the most.

My mother is in the memory care unit over at Summerfield. I’d give it a good mark all the way around. They take pretty good care of her. It’s very clean and it’s well staffed. They let me know if there are any problems or any concerns, or if I have any questions. They also do activities and stuff. It’s reasonably priced for the area, so I’m happy with it. I wouldn’t have put her in the other choices in the area. There was another place in the area that was a little bit less expensive and it’s also nice, but it’s a little further drive. So price is a big consideration but the convenience for us to be able to see her is also a factor. I’d highly recommend it Summerfield for the Yuba City area. It’s a good facility.

We went to Summerfield Retirement Community and it's such a pretty inviting place. We looked at the rooms and they are pretty new. It's a very nice and clean place. I was impressed with the facility.

It was the newest and the prettiest one we've seen in a while. Their rooms were in the halls. The staff was accommodating to us. They do not have skilled nurses.

I felt that this facility was a very nice place. It was clean and the staff was friendly. The residents all seemed happy and were friendly with eachother. When I walked into the building, I was greeted with a smile and asked if I was there to visit a resident or tour the facility. I stated that I was there to take a tour and they were very friendly about showing me around. The bathrooms were clean, the hallways were clean, and I noticed that all residents were clean and dressed for the day, whereas in other facilities I had noticed that most residents were still in nightgowns and appeared depressed. I felt good about the fact that there was an alarm on the door in case any confused residents walked out the door without being buzzed through. This is important to keep track of alzheimers patients. I know I spelled that wrong, sorry. Anyhow, this place is in the top running for places for my grandfather to live as he will soon need assistance.

On 10/06/1011, I visited relatives at this assisted living facility on Plumas Street in Yuba City. This is what I observed: Cleanliness: generally good, individual bathrooms were clean w some odors. Generally spacious and orderly hallways Meals: 3 per day Residents: "Everyone treats us good" "food is good, some cooks are better than others" Activities: encouraged, large room w big sceen TV This facility is a little hard to find, tucked away behind a Senior living facility. It is licensed for 99 residentsand currently is home to about 70 persons.

I really loved this place and had no regrets when i placed my mother there when her dementia started increasing. The staff has very nice and it felt like a home to my mother and the food was not to bad the cooked 3 meals a day and provided snacks to her whenever she wanted. They also would transport to all of her appointments so I didnt have to worry about her missing any appointments. They also had activities for her to join in like bingo and card games and lots of stuff to keep them active and there mind working. I really enjoyed summerfield everytime I came to visit my mother. The place was also very safe and secure they have a buzzer system for people to come in and if you are not buzzed out than the alarm goes off so staff can check to see who went out the door. Which comfort me to know if my mother was to get confused and think she was younger or try to take off they would know and stop her and comfort her so she wouldnt be running around the streets or get hurt.
