Memory Care Communities in San Jose, CA

"My wife has moved into Carlton Senior Living San Jose. What I like best is its proximity to our home, so I can go visit her frequently without too much trouble. I have tried some of the food and it's quite good. There are plenty of activities she can participate in while she's there. It looks to be very well maintained inside and out. Everybody I have encountered there has been very pleasant and professional. They have a fairly large collection of books available to residents. Plus, they have movie nights and some other activities. We only looked at a studio because I was looking for the least costly option, but it is a reasonable space for one person to live in. They have a garden and an outdoor patio."

"I toured Brookdale San Jose. It has a nice atmosphere and friendly staff. I met half a dozen residents, and they have very positive feelings about Brookdale. What I especially liked was that utilities included water, electricity, trash, and two meals a day. There is a parking fee of $50, which is okay since I still drive, and they would assist in moving into Brookdale. They have an exercise and workout room, a nice library, and quiet reading areas. If I have guests staying overnight, they have arrangements for $150 a night for out-of-town guests. So, that's nice too."

"My relative has moved into Palm Villas of Campbell. We're impressed with the care that they're giving as he's getting more severe dementia, and he needs more care. Everything is excellent there. The facility is clean. They're attentive. They have many attendants. I'm just totally impressed with them. They cut his hair. It's near a hospital and a restaurant."

"I've toured Belmont Village Los Gatos' memory care and also looked at all of the levels. The tour was great, I thought it was a really beautiful facility. What I liked about the memory care is that they have a thing called Circle of Friends, where all the memory care unit residents get together and have activities every day, I like that. They were in a group at the time that we were there and they were just having a discussion, so they let us come in and say hi to everybody. And then we went to the actual memory care unit where they had activities individually with each person. The dining area was very nice. The staff who gave the tour was very, very good at her job. They had a patio, a garden with nice seating, and nice views out of their balconies. The place was just so, so clean."

"My wife has moved into Oakmont of Silver Creek. It is very presentable. The landscaping is very well done, and it's relaxing when you walk in. The front lobby is immaculate. The lady at the front desk always acknowledges me, and they greet you, and that's very good. When we first walked in for the first time, they had a big sign that said, 'Welcome,' and that was very impressive. The management is very good. They have lots of meetings with the residents to get their input. They are constantly trying to get information and input from the residents, which I think is a very, very good process that they use. The rooms are the right size. They're not too big, they're not too little. My wife has a studio. We were worried because she had to have a hospital bed in there, but there's plenty of room for the hospital bed. It's very spacious and clean. It is easy to get in and out if you're in a wheelchair. The showers are nice. They have a very small lift to get in. The hallways are very spacious, enough for two wheelchairs to pass. They have four or five elevators, and those are very nice and spacious, too. You could get five or six people there. The dining room is just unbelievable. The meals they cook are so good. They have breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They have menus, and if you want to go off the menu, they have things like hamburgers, sandwiches, and stuff like that. If you don't feel like eating a full meal, that's there as well. If you're sick, they'll send it up to your room. The people who work there are unbelievable. They remember what their preferences are, like whether they drink coffee or tea or whatever. The caretakers are very, very good. They're very caring people. My wife gets her hair done. The caretaker will braid it and put it together, so she goes down for breakfast, and she looks different each day. It's the extra time that they do for them. It's a wonderful thing. They're so loving. Every time I walk into the community, everybody knows my name. It's remarkable. It's very welcoming and very thoughtful. The med techs are very good. They have bingo, poker, and flower arrangements. All the flower arrangements in the dining room have been done by the residents who are taking the flower arrangement class."

"My mom was at Villa Fontana Retirement Community temporarily. She was there transitioning out of the hospital. She needed 24/7 care while she was recovering. After she recovered, we then relocated her to the other facility. If I had the option to keep her there, I would have kept her there because I think across the board, they were five-star. My only dissatisfaction was the cost, which was almost $8,000 a month. They have friendly staff and lots of activities for the residents and their families. They have ice cream socials, they have bingo, and they recognize the different holidays and celebrate them. I thought they were very engaging and very friendly."

"I went to Atria Evergreen Valley. I liked it. I have a friend that stays there, so I'm familiar with it. My friend is in independent living. The place was busy because they were about to serve dinner, but the staff took time to walk me around and answer my questions. They have an excellent concierge. They have a very nice and spacious area outside for them to walk. They have walking paths and different areas where they can sit and read. The inside was well maintained. The walls, the carpet, and everything inside were clean. It all looked nice. It seemed like it would make a resident comfortable. I also liked the prices. They were competitive."

"Westmont Milpitas is extremely clean. It has an indoor pool. The food is good. There's a lot of activities. Mom's apartment is great. She has a full kitchen, a washer and dryer, a walk-in shower, a walk-in closet, a good-sized room, and an eating bar. The staff is really good. I like them. The only problem we're running into is her apartment number isn't listed with the post office, which is weird, but they're working on that. They have a book club, a movie theater, field trips where they go shopping, and bingo, so they have a lot of stuff. Internet and cable are included, too."

"My wife and I moved to Ivy Park at San Jose. They take care of you very well, and consistently, and the care is very good. We have diabetic care and also personal care. The structure of the building is pretty good. They have excursions and travel. The size of the one-bedroom is OK. The dining area is good. The food is good. They accommodated me because I'm a vegetarian, and they tried to help me with my needs. The community has a friendly atmosphere."

"My mother-in-law will be moving into Belmont Village Sunnyvale. Tim, the sales guy, was very detailed. He asked a lot of questions as to what my mother-in-law's needs were. And I felt that because he was so detailed in trying to understand what her needs were, her needs would be met much better. They had a chef, so their menu was so ample and there was such a variety of food. I went into the dining hall, and I saw that there were a lot of seniors interacting with each other at the tables. They all looked happy and they were eating well. The quality of the food looked very good. They said we could join my mother-in-law any time, and it was $10 a meal for us. It was just so welcoming and warm there."

"The Parkview RCH#2 is very nice, and the people are very nice. It's assisted living, and my wife moved there. She is currently out again because she's hospitalized. They provide activities like taking them out a little bit. Most of the elderlies are in wheelchairs, so they put them out in the backyard and do some light exercise or things like that. They make them comfortable. The residents get 3 meals a day. If they have a favorite food, they can ask for their favorite food."
