"Sunrise of Danville has been very helpful in making my elderly mother’s transition from skilled nursing facility to assisted living a very good one. My mother requires a lot of help and care. Sunrise staff members have done an exellent job in attending to her needs. April the the Marketing Director has been exceptionally AWESOME in helping in making this transition for my mother and our family as smooth as possible. It has been a great experience for us. Thank you Sunrise!"

"Walnut Creek Care Home seemed nice. The staff was nice, too. My sister will have her own room with a wall and a sliding door to the outside. It's small, but it's a nice room and they allow cats. They only have six beds, so they don't have a lot of activities. Cleanliness seemed OK."

"I toured Ivy Park at Walnut Creek, and it's clean. The staff was friendly, and I liked the programs that engaged the residents. I can't find anything negative about the place. When I signed up for a tour and went at the appointed time, I saw my name in front of the entrance. I was impressed, and it's very welcoming."

"When we first walked into the building we felt at home. The staff was friendly and welcoming. Some of the residents were involved in a painting activity & others were reading or watching the television. The activity table had a good assortment of 'toys' to remind residents of how zippers & buttons work. The residents were group based on their level of ability for activities. It was a very good experience. The setting was very clean & open. The residents were clean & friendly. The staff was friendly and engaging. We knew this was the place as we got uo to leave. The 2nd visit 3 days later sealed the deal."

"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."

"Atria Walnut Creek is right across the parking lot from the nursing home where my husband is. I'm independent and I'm staying in a respite suite. My living space is very nice and very spacious. And because it's a respite apartment, it's very nicely furnished with everything you need. The food is good. I'm not doing the activities here because I'm spending a lot of time at the nursing home with my husband. But the building is very clean, and things are well cared for. The staff is very friendly. They make you feel welcome. I don't have anything to compare it to, but where I'm staying, it's actually cheaper than if I were in a hotel."

"My mom will move into The Watermark at Rosewood Gardens. My mom felt very comfortable there. They have a fence in the backyard where she can let her dog out and a nice bath. The staff is excellent. The food was good. The dining area is warm and friendly, and they have a free transportation service, which is nice."

"The rooms are clean, efficient, rather spacious, excellent access to the nurses stations. The staff is top-notch; attentive, caring, always available."

"The rooms are great and remodeled with a full kitchen no dishwasher but full refrigerator and an induction stove top and microwave. The food is great and the staff is amazing. Tristan and Lacey are fantastic. Very happy and my grandmother is very happy. Thank you Ivy Park San Ramon!"

"The staff was incredibly kind from the moment we walked in. We felt welcome and supported.The facility was clean and well-maintained and had a warm home like atmosphere."

"My mother was a patient here for 4.5 years, until she passed away recently. I cannot express how thankful I am to have had the wonderful staff caring for her all that time. The caregivers are kind, loving, respectful, and always looking to make life a bit better for the residents. There is very little turnover of staff. Most of the caregivers have been there since my mother arrived. They truly feel like family, and I will miss them."

"Carlton Senior Living Downtown Pleasant Hill is the place that I want to send my loved one. My wife is there and they're just really professional. It's a place that gives you warmth. There's no odor or any urine smell or anything, and they have separate dining rooms for memory care. So, it's a nice place to go. The staff is excellent and very caring people. They have a lot of things to do, like bingo, music, entertainers that come in, painting, little handicrafts, and different things similar to that. Both the food and their dining area were excellent, and they have waitresses and waiters that clean up for you. If you have trouble eating in memory care, they have people that assist you. They're also very persnickety about who comes in. You need your COVID shot and your mask. So, they just take good care of them."

"We toured The Kensington, which we are quite pleased with. Everybody was very nice to us. The people who run the units have all been just super. We're physically pretty mobile, we still drive, and we still go to all of our doctor's appointments and do our own shopping. We're just trying to downsize a little bit and get away from many responsibilities of home maintenance and that type of thing, so independent living is what we're looking for right now. The Kensington is very good. We like the feeling of the place, and we like the amenities that they provided. It's been several months since we went out to visit it, and I have an appointment in a couple of weeks to go back and revisit. The staff members were very polite. They're very attentive to the people that they have. We were very impressed with the fact that they seemed to know the names of everybody who lives there. They call them by name when we pass them in the hallway. We met with some people in the units, and they gave good reviews. They've all said that they enjoy being there. We have no major negatives other than the gut feeling that this doesn't seem like a good fit for us. We had lunch with one of the people who lives there, and he was very informative and very polite. Everything was fine. The facilities were all very nice."
