Memory Care Communities in Sonoma, CA

"I toured Windsong of Sonoma. It was very nicely appointed. It was newly upgraded and it seemed like a very nice community. The people that I saw there were friendly. The rooms are quite spacious. They were newly painted and newly carpeted, and they looked very clean and nice, and very comfortable. During the tour, the staff were very nice and personable. The manager that we spoke to was very knowledgeable and had some good suggestions, and it seemed like the few that we were introduced to knew what they were doing. I liked the fact that they were all in the same type of uniforms and that sort of thing. It was very good."

"I toured the Nazareth Rose Garden of Napa for my mom. We chose it because it's close to home. She's closer to her family. The director is a caring person. I liked the facility, it was intimate. It's not a really big facility. Something that my mom can grow older in. Their dining room is exceptional, the food preparation is exceptional, and the quality of food is exceptional."

"I toured Atria Tamalpais Creek. I thought it was the best fit considering the activities and homey feel. It seemed like it was the best fit for my mother's personality. Her room is a typical studio with a small kitchenette. It has a high ceiling, a balcony with a view and trees, and a parking lot. The staff has been very friendly and helpful. We had lunch there. My mom was happy with that, it was not too fussy, and it's appropriate for where she's at right now."

"I went to see Oakmont of Novato. It was very nice, very modern, very clean and very new. I didn't get to interact with the staff, just with the director who took me on tour and she was very nice. The room I saw was very nice. I saw that the residents had just played a particular game but I wasn't there long enough to see any of the activities. I went to their memory care portion so the amenities are a little bit more limited. I didn't see the assisted living part of it, which I believe has all of those things. They have a patio area for the memory care people but I think they have a larger area for assisted living. I liked the director who toured me. She seemed to be very knowledgeable and very caring. I also saw the guest menu and it seemed fine. "

"My visit to Vista Prado was very good. The facility was clean and it had friendly staff. I liked that the residents were active during the day. They had activities going through the day and they were in a big common area to do those activities. They had wide hallways. The thing that stood out to me was that they try to keep the residents active and not just sitting in their rooms. The rooms were of ample size and very clean. The facility was nice. It had an outdoor area and a deck area, which was very nice. They had physical activities and creative activities. They also had music and arts."

"I liked the location of Brookdale Chanate. I liked the staff. The people were very, very professional, kind, and compassionate. I was very, very impressed. The facilities were clean, and it was very quiet. At first, I was going to pick Brookdale Chanate because of the location, but I decided to go with the other place because it had more lighting and it was brighter. Brookdale Chanate is in amongst the redwoods, so it's darker, and the view out of the room was just a big redwood tree, but it was nice. I was impressed with the size and layout of the rooms, even the shared rooms. They were good-sized rooms."

"My dad liked Brookdale Paulin Creek a lot. The staff and the residents were all very friendly and welcoming. The tour was nice. The lady, Miro, was very, very kind, very thorough, and answered all of the questions. My parents were able to sit down and sample a meal and they were both very happy with the meal and the selection of food available. I, and the health aide that was with us, ate as well and everybody loved the food. The rooms were pretty large."

"I'm very familiar with Brighton Gardens, which recently changed owners (it's now run by Emeritus). It's an excellent facility with three levels of care: skilled nursing, assisted living, and memory. It's located in central Santa Rosa, up on a hill with a beautiful view. Even the skilled nursing part of the facility"”the part I mostly see"”doesn't look institutional. It's homey and nice. The rooms come in a range of sizes (some singles, some doubles) and are light-filled and feel warm and inviting. The staff is great. They're loving and sweet--genuinely attached to the residents. And the new owners seem to have the same good standards of care. The food is good, too. The memory unit is especially good, with one of the best activity programs I've seen. It's one of Brighton Gardens' best selling points. They have a full program of activities and the residents also have the option of going on an outing in a bus. There's always music there. And all the staff members are engaging and loving. End of life care is very good"”so loving. They step up and really care for them through the whole process. The only downside is the cost. If one can afford it, it's a good choice."

"My husband has moved into Villa Capri. The atmosphere is very quiet, calm, and clean. There's a lot of staff for the residents. I like the location. It just seemed very organized and the people love working there. They have been so helpful because there were times when I didn't know what to do. They were professional, kind, and caring. The food is very good. It's laid out well. He's on the first floor. It has a nice atmosphere. They told me they have all kinds of activities. They were doing bingo. They had a guy come in to talk about hot air balloons. They do TV aerobics. The size of the room is pretty good."

"I liked Drake Terrace. It was a smaller place and I think the employees have worked there a long time. The residents were friendly during the short time my husband was there. The food was really good. The staff was very good. I was very happy with them. Although the facility was not new, it was still nice."

"We were able to visit The Vincent. It was not a building that was converted, so I liked that it was built originally for seniors. The walls are soundproof. The food was excellent. The amenities are great. The staff members that we met were knowledgeable. They train their caregivers there at the facility. It's not a corporate facility, but they have everything a person could want. We actually left a deposit to hold a room, but the only problem with them is that the room is on the third floor. My friend has mobility issues, and so he is afraid of being on any floor in case there is an earthquake or a fire. He is afraid that he would not be able to get out of the building, and that's his only hesitation. I was going to call back to see if there was any chance that they would have a resident that wanted to move up to the third floor, and so my friend is definitely looking for a ground floor. They offer a discount on the community fee. The building had a very warm and natural feeling. The grab bars looked like chair molding around the walls. They had linen tablecloths and a full table setting service. Everything was just top-notch and clean. There is a library, and they have what's running in the theater now in their movie facility, so it's not old movies. At The Vincent, it was like eating in a restaurant. It was pizza day the day that we were there, and they had their own brick pizza oven to cook pizzas. To order from the menu, everything was fresh, and nothing frozen. It was a totally different experience."
