Independent Living Communities in Manteca, CA

"Oakmont of Lodi is the best match for my father. He likes being outside and they had a large outdoor area in the memory care that he could go to and that he could utilize. They don't have a washer and dryer in the apartments in memory care. They don't have any appliances at all in memory care. They do their laundry for them. The dining area was great and the food choices looked good. The staff was very friendly and informative. They showed us around and it was during dinner, so we saw the food, but we didn't try it. We looked at a private room and a shared room, and they were both pretty spacious. I saw the pool. In memory care, they just have a little patio they can walk out on."

"Solstice Senior Living at Lodi was very nice. Their little studios were quite small but you could go out any time. They had a nice living room area and there was somebody there playing music which was nice. They also had a nice dining room, a laundry room, and a library. Since its independent living, I didn't see a whole lot of staff members, but the lady that showed us around was very nice."

"Lodi Commons Senior Living was very clean. The people were very nice. The rooms were small and older, but they were very clean. They had balconies, but they were small. They didn't have large windows. They had darker windows, and they had limited lighting. The staff had been there for 25 or 35 years. They were very good."

"My mother will be moving into Covenant Living of Turlock. It was a very well-established place. It has independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing. They have like 200 residents because it's 23 acres. They have apartments for retirees, too. Everybody was very happy and sociable. The facilities were very well kept. The dining halls were excellent, and we ate lunch there. It has a 24/7 nurse on staff in case my mom needs something, so that's very good. We toured some two-bedroom rooms, but we chose a one-bedroom with complete appliances. Every time a tenant moves out, they replace all the flooring. My mom was impressed with the amount of space. They have physical classes, aerobic swimming in the pool, and chair yoga. They have a large variety of activities that are all included in the price. They have a full gym, an indoor heated swimming pool, steam rooms, and spas."

"Westmont of Brentwood was a nice facility, but their memory care rooms were really tiny, and they didn't have closets. I didn't think that would be appropriate for my mom. They have a good menu system and food available all day. They have activities and the staff was fine. Their dining room was very nice and the grounds were beautiful. They have nice gardens that are very private. The residents can't leave the area when they're in the garden because it's surrounded by buildings. Their memory care is locked, so they're not able to get out. The location is great. It's right down the street from my house."

"Everyone here was very friendly. Since I was working, they came to my house to do the paperwork, so I didn't have to take more time off work to do that. They made it very easy for me. Everything was very nice. My mom's room is a very good size for her needs. They have field trips, bingo, some sort of happy hour, and barbecues. There were quite a lot of things to choose from."

"The staff are very friendly and helpful in making our lives better and helping,"

"My sister is living in a 55+ community called Woodbridge. They have individual houses, and most of them have two-bedroom and two-baths. They have bingo, cards, swimming, and a gym. It’s not a gated community, but I haven’t heard of any problems, and what impressed me the most is the open floor plan of the home. "

"My parents are residents of The Park at Modesto. They have lovely care there. It's a very nice place; very clean. Everybody's very friendly. The food is good. Everybody's cared for well. I like the place. I just wish it was closer to me. My parents are in a one-bedroom. It has a full kitchen. The bathroom is very well-fitted for anybody with disabilities. The facility is just good. It has a grand piano that my mom could play and it's a nice place. The staff was very good, professional, kind, and loving. The food is very good. They change it up quite often and you can always order or request it if you don't want something on the menu."

"I went with a friend to check out the Plymouth Square Retirement Community to help him find a place for he and his wife. He still enjoys working part time and is unable to care for her on his own. At this facility, they seem to be able to accommodate most senior circumstances with a variety of living options available. We thought his mother would like the little park area outside, which was close to the main door. There was space enough to have parties, picnics, barbeques and other gatherings with friends and family. The receiving area was fresh and bright with a nice colors and furniture. The interior communal rooms were all designed with beautiful views in a calming, current décor and lots of light and fresh air. The social rooms offered easy ways for seniors to visit with each other, make crafts, play games, watch TV and films and participate in many other stimulating activities. Many outings include local sight seeing, nature walks and visits to all of the great activities that Stockton and its surrounding area has to offer. It looked as though the staff could easily manage all of the residents, which is important to us. Seniors can use exercise facilities at any time and also go on daily walks, with assistance as needed. Aerobics and yoga classes are offered and residents are encouraged to exercise daily. The menus all had healthy food options for all kinds of diets. Healthy snacks are offered all day and into the evening, and whenever requested. The dining rooms were nice and the food we saw looked and smelled delicious. Seniors may also opt to prepare food themselves in their apartments if desired. The well-designed units had balconies with nice views and lovely grounds surrounding them. Bathrooms and all areas were designed with safety in mind. All of the seniors living in this community seemed very content, in a living environment specifically tailored to their needs. This living environment would work for my friend and his wife, since it is designed as a retirement community with just the amount of support they would need. Definitely one of the favorite assisted living facilities that we've visited thus far in the area. "

"Escalon Heritage Homes was in a small town, which was out of the country. It was more open and they had duplexes, which were connected instead of three or four apartments together. They had one bedroom apartments as well as studios. I would have my own private front yard and it was close to the Senior Citizen's office, which was across the street. There was also a park nearby where I could take my grandchildren to play. They had great staff. There was an area to play bingo, a reading room and you could have your own pet. There was also a yard keeper to clean the yard. The residents cooked their own food. I liked the place a lot. "

"Rio Las Palmas is very nice, and the people are very caring and very helpful. The rooms are clean and much more spacious than the other ones I’ve visited. It’s good, and that’s why I picked it for my mother. They gave us a list of activities for the whole month and each day had things going on to meet all of the residents’ needs, whether they’re into movies, card games, music, or whatever. They had a variety of food, but I only ate there once. "

"We're leaving my mother at Casa De Modesto because it's affordable. It's really nice and they keep up with it. We're really happy with it. She's in the assisted living. It's not far from downtown Modesto. It's next to a suburban area, but it's also next to the main street of Modesto where there's lots of shopping. They have shuttles to take her to doctors' appointments. I like the community. They have a courtyard, and she's got a balcony that she can look out of. You can have a pet there. She has a two-bedroom for $2,100 a month, and it includes cable and utilities. She's been very happy with the nurse on-call and all the staff members. She's kind of independent. She had a car which she just stopped driving, so she didn't utilize the activities yet, but they do have a newsletter. They just had a band from Vegas that played, and they take them on field trips and out to dinner."
