Good Decision

I thought I had already made my decision about where to place my mom and then I toured this community and changed my mind we love it here. Mom is doing very good here she is settling in and being taken care of very well. I feel much better knowing she is here. She is eating on a regular schedule which she wasn't before and she likes the food. The staff is amazing here super helpful and very nice. I would recommend this community.

Newly Renovated

This community was very nice we liked it.Since it was just recently renovated everything was new and clean very updated. On the tour, the staff was helpful and nice. My husband took time to talk to the residents and any of their family members to get a sense as to how they liked living here and everyone seemed to agree it was a good place. They seem to offer quite a few activities to keep the residents busy.

An Additional Tour

Considering the community is far away and it was not as nice looking, this was not the right fit. From the outside it looked like a dungeon but when you got into the building it looked nice. I noticed that it seemed crowded and I was not connecting with the atmosphere.

Not a good fit...

AlmaVia was a nice facility, but they were not for what we were looking for. They could accommodate one but not the other. We wanted my aunt and uncle to stay together as of we chose this community they would have to separate them because of their different levels of care.

This community would have been a good choice, however it was just a little to far away. The community was nice and the staff were wonderful when we visited. They had large rooms available.

Wonderful Community!!

There is resident parking available. I took a tour of this community and really liked it. Pets are welcomed. They offer a wide variety of activities. Meals are provided for the residents. It is very clean and up-kept. Great staff in this community.

Very nice people

She passed away in December. She was only there for a little over two weeks. The people there were very, very nice although I do not know if it was the right place for her because of all her needs. A Place for Mom was wonderful in helping us find somewhere for her and Thank You.

Nice but very expensive.

We considered this place when we were looking for somewhere to do a respite stay. They were adamant that my loved one needed to be in the memory care. We didn't think so and they wouldn't budge on that. They were also very expensive. It was a very nice place though.

Bathtubs

The reason that I didn't choose this AlmaVia was because of the bathtub. You had to step over to get into the shower and I just didn't want my mom to fall. I thought it was a beautiful place and the had beautiful grounds. It was just the bathtub that I didn't like. We ended up choosing the AlmaVia in Union City instead.

Nice and Friendly

I put my partner on the waiting list here. It seemed nice and friendly. He had been in skilled nursing before and this was much more refreshing. It was fine as far as I could see but we found an opening at another place.

This place was nice. It was clean. Everything seemed on comparable to the others we were looking at. One of the others was more competetively priced though.

Nice, reminds me of a mini-version of Monarch Village. Still liked another facility more so in terms of pricing and available perks but will keep this as a backup place.

More of a community for people that need a lot of care

My husband and I toured here when we were trying to find a place to live and we thought maybe we’d like it but when we went to take a tour, it seemed like the people that were there needed more help than what we did. However, from what we saw, they were keeping everything very clean. They have several levels of care available depending on what you need. They showed us around the whole place and showed us the areas where people needed the most care and then we went to the area where people needed the less care and they just really seemed to care for everyone. Just from what we could tell, they’re doing a very good job.

PLUS: Nice facility, large windows and lots of natural light. Good size one-bed rooms. Quite neigborhood, adjacent to green space. You don't hear the freeway. Catholic, with parish church on the property. Wide hallways. MINUS: Right up agains freeway on-ramp. Many of the residence have walkers and cane, some patients in wheels chairs sit in empty rooms. Dining room feels small and not very special. Building feels more like a converted hospital or SNF.

Work in progress...

I like the place and everyone is very nice, but my mother needs a higher level of care. The other day, my mother had not gotten any breakfast or been dressed and we I brought it up tp the director he was horrified. We are currently on the waiting list for memory care.
