Memory Care Communities in Brentwood, CA

"Walnut Creek Care Home didn't have any openings, but the house was spotless. It was very, very clean. The staff there was great. There was no smell of urine or something like that. For me, this particular home just needed some remodeling. It was dated, but that doesn't detract from the fact that it was spotless and the people that were working there were wonderful. They had very caring and long-tenured staff members."

"During my visit to Emeritus, I saw that the staff working there was absolutely outstanding. They really reached out to me. They gave me a tour and explained everything that was going on in the facility. Emeritus was specifically the facility where my father can move in. I liked the facility, but it would have been restricting for my mother. However, they offered some alternatives for her. They said that they would consolidate assisted living down the road for her to have social interaction with people. I thought that it was extraordinary. "

"We toured Watermark at San Ramon. It was very comprehensive and clean, and the person who toured the place with us was very knowledgeable. The food seemed okay because we ordered from the menu. The facility was a very well-run place, but it was not suitable for what we were looking for."

"Creekview Statement - Pleasanton, CA Moving to Creekview Assisted Living was the best decision for me. I feel safe and comfortable here and started calling it “home” soon after moving in. I especially like the medication management where the staff handles refills, prescription changes, doctor instructions and timely dispensing. There are three good meals each day. Housekeeping services include personal laundry done weekly. The Creekview facility offers spacious community rooms, wide hallways, and rooms for many activities. And the people – both Residents and Staff – are caring and supportive. It is a very good home."

"It had enough space for 26 residents unlike the other facilities I have seen. The place had a formal dining room, a professional kitchen, a nutritionist and a large staff. I knew they would be able to provide better food and better care. There was also a garden outside where the residents could take walks and a large activity room complete with big screen television. The shared bedroom was very spacious and it had a private bathroom as well. "

"I've had quite a few clients there"”in the dementia unit, assisted living, and independent living. I've also had hospice patients there. And it's been a very good choice for them. It's a lovely facility, with both private and shared rooms in assisted living and shared rooms only in the dementia unit. It's in a nice residential area close to downtown Pleasant Hill shops and restaurants and close to the Pleasant Hill senior center. They have lovely garden areas and good parking. The staff is VERY caring. I've seen them deal with a lot of difficult problems"”family issues, legal issues"”and they've handled it all beautifully. They have an RN on staff who provides diabetic care, too, which is unusual and a real plus. There's little turnover. And it's family owned: high quality, hands on. The food is excellent, and they have many, many activities. They're always celebrating something, and there's always seasonal décor. "

"I toured The Kensington. It is probably the most luxurious facility I've seen. They have a very large dining area, a very big menu, and very luxurious rooms. They did show me the layout of the rooms. The rooms were a little on the larger side, and they were good-sized rooms, probably more than 500 square feet. The one bedroom is a pretty good size because I've seen some places with smaller rooms. There's an alarm in the bathroom. So if someone fell, they could set the alarm and get some help. I was able to get around with the director through the whole tour."

"The staff at Chateau are very thoughtful and well trained. While the building may be in need of some updates, overall the facility works very well and has the amenities the patient's need. We had a family member here at this facility for several months until their passing and I cannot recommend them highly enough. The love and compassion they showered on him and the way the staff worked with my family was outstanding. "

"My church got involved with Eden Villa as a sort of adoption project. We we started out by taking them cookies, lemonade, ornaments, flowers, etc. just on special holidays like Christmas, Halloween and Easter. Gradually the program evolved to a once a month project where we would bring lemonade and cookies the last Saturday of every month. Our purpose was to provide company and companionship to those that many people in society had forgotten about. Fortunately, the people at Eden Villa were very well cared for. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly, the facility was extremely neat and clean. When we mentioned we would like to come every last Saturday of the month, the facility director was more than happy to accommodate us. They even provided the lemonade and cookies. All we had to do was show up with smiles on our faces. There was plenty for the residents to do there from movie watching to courtyard sitting. There was a shuttle service that would take them from place to place as well. "

"I toured Oakmont of Brookside. The place was nice. I didn't have any complaints about the place. It was a beautiful location, and they answered all my questions. The customer service was great. The only issue was the pricing, we can't afford to come out of pocket that much. They don't accept any insurance because they are a private place. It was a one-bedroom apartment. It was nice, spacious, and well-lit, and that cooling system wasn't great. It gets really hot."

"Carlton Senior Living Pleasant Hill is very nice, very friendly, and comfortable. I have a positive feeling about the place. The staff is very friendly and very informative. They gave me a lot of information. I asked about something legal, and they gave me information about elderly law and which office to go to seek any help. They gave me lots of help beyond the assisted living community letting me know where I can access different information. They showed me around the area. It looked like a very vibrant community. I saw them interact with the people living there, which was very nice."

"I want to leave a review regarding my mother. My mother passed away recently and The Parkview was always so incredible to her. I would like to give a special shout out to the Activities team. Deborah, Jim, Leland, & Obed. They always kept her doing fun things everytime. They are an incredible team that constantly helped my Momma out even when i was not there. The Activities director , Obed, always made me feel welcome and would constantly check up with me to give me updates about my Momma and even check on us after her passing. Building a relationship with the people who took care of my family member was key to me before enrolling her into anything & now I see just how important The Parkview does that and how much they care. Thank you Parkview we will never forget the hospitality"

"I visited Sunol Creek Memory Care. The staff was interacting with the residents, and it looked like everybody was involved in something together. It was very positive to see that. Daniel was wonderful. He's very detail oriented. I was looking for respite care at the time, and he let me see the room that they would stay in. It was very clean. He was very pleasant and eager to help. He called me a couple of times, and he's been great. They go on tours to places on a little bus. They get to have barbecues. They are involved in fixing the food a little bit. They try to keep them oriented and their brains working. They do puzzles and games and everything. It's great. It wasn't depressing."
