Charter Senior Living of Martinez

Edie

I toured for my uncle. The room size was nice. They were renovating, and It will be really nice when they get done. The upkeep looked good. It was very clean. The staff was very good. She was very thorough. There were activities going on. I think it was trivia, and they had quite a crowd for trivia. They had transportation for shopping and to doctor's appointments. They had a happy hour. They had snacks, in addition to their meals. They do laundry. They help with medications. They assist with showers, bathing, dressing, and all of that.

My mom will be moving in. It was very professional and very clean. They have a lot of options and a lot of things for them to do. The rooms were a nice size. I like the care because they will check in on my mom every hour. It' s apartment-style. My mom will have a nice room with a queen bed, a dresser, a chair, and a bathroom. They have a smaller room. They have a beauty parlor, a theater, family night, and a big dining room where people eat altogether. They do activities weekly, like taking them shopping or to the movies. We have been there for family night, and the food is good.

Brenda

My brother is satisfied. He likes everybody. He loves the staff and the other residents. He seems to be doing well. If he's happy, I'm happy. They have bingo, painting classes, a happy hour, and movies. They stay pretty busy. They have special dinners, like they have taco cheese, once a month and he can invite anybody he wants. They have parties for every holiday. They have a library, and a laundry service, too. They'll clean their clothes and they usually do that at night. They'll give him his medication and help with his shower, and if you don't feel like going to the dining room, they'll bring your food to you. He goes, and he likes getting along, talking, and socializing. The staff is good. The place is very clean. It always looks nice and tidy. I went to the taco cheese and the food was very good. I think it's a good value. We went over what he would be paying at home and it was the same or a little less than what it would've cost.

Aimee

It was very homey and very clean. They had several big activity areas, happy hour, and lots of activities for the residents to get together. They had shuttles that would do outside activities like taking them to lunch once a week if you signed up for it or going to a park at least once a week. The lady that gave me the tour was very friendly and very knowledgeable. The rooms were pretty roomy, very spacious, and very clean.

Sandra

When we did the tour, the apartments that they showed us and their memory care, all of it was very nice. It was all very clean and everybody seemed very friendly. I had no problems. If we could have afforded it, I would not mind putting daddy there because it seemed very nice and the accommodations were nice. But daddy was not going to be able to do the assisted living type thing at that point, and with him being a 20-year veteran, we're using his benefits for the nursing home. But that's the only reason why we're not going there, it's not that there was a problem with it or anything. I was not able to taste any of the food, but the two people that showed us around, there was a young man and a lady, they were very helpful and very nice. That they explained the rooms to us, they explained the activities and what they have. They were very helpful, but it just wasn't going to work out for daddy. They were saying that they had this particular room where they had movie nights. Then they had a place where whenever we wanted to have a family dinner, they had a place set where you could have your own family dinner, which I thought was especially nice. Like if our brothers and sisters wanted to come down and we wanted to have dinner with daddy, that was very nice. And they did bingo and movie nights and things like that.
