"We like Carefield Pleasanton Memory Care. The only downside was (it's not that big a distance), but it would take us 45 minutes to an hour to get there because of traffic and stuff. The Bay Area traffic is a total nightmare and you're only going a few miles up the freeway and that can take you an hour. In the event of an emergency, I don't want a place that's far away. The staff there was very nice. We saw two people and we also met the chef that came in and gave us samples of their food which were excellent. My sister especially liked the rooms. They were much larger. It allows you to bring more of your own furniture and personal belongings from home. Even if you're sharing a room, it was much, much bigger. These rooms were large enough to bring in a recliner, an extra chair, your dresser from home, put up your own TV on the wall. It was a newer facility and it catered to much larger rooms so that you could have a living space. If it was a private room, you had room for a lot of furniture in there if you wanted to bring personal items. There was room there for tables and chairs, a sofa if you wanted visitors and that kind of stuff. We like the facility. I saw a room where people were playing bingo. The downside for me was the facility was too big. I like the idea that these rooms were large, but in doing so, it also meant you had large corridors and I was afraid that my mother would never find her way back to the room. I love the birdcages. I walked in and they had several birds in this birdcage. My mother is a huge fan of birds. She always has birdfeeders out and feeds all the birds in her yard. This large cage with four or five little parakeets or whatever just filled up the whole room when you walked into the lobby. The lobby was bigger than my house. I would be very happy eating there, but we only had some appetizers and a dessert and I took the rest of the dessert with me. I just thought it was too large to navigate for somebody that has memory issues."
