    Clean facility but limited engagement

    I appreciate the spotless, beautifully decorated facility with a clean smell and a grand piano in the common area; staff are generally kind, dedicated and made my mother feel welcomed with personalized attention, clear pandemic communication, and real concern for residents' safety and dignity. That said, it's not very stimulating-residents often sit around a large room-and access and communication can be frustrating: entrances locked, phones sometimes unanswered, contact largely through relatives, and one staff member (Tom) was brusque. Occasional entertainers come but won't include bedridden residents; overall I'm grateful for the care but disappointed by limited engagement and communication barriers.

    About Somerset Senior Living

    Somerset Senior Living is an assisted living community located in San Jose, California, and although a server error made access to detailed information difficult, there are still some things that can be shared about what folks can expect there. The place offers round-the-clock care, with support staff and healthcare workers on hand 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so residents have someone nearby for any needs at any time, which brings families a bit of peace. There are private rooms for those who want their own space, with comfortable beds and linens changed weekly or as needed, and the staff also takes care of laundry and housekeeping, making sure common areas and rooms stay neat and clean. Somerset gives three meals each day that are supposed to be well-balanced, plus snacks between meals, and if a doctor tells a resident they need a special diet, the kitchen will follow those instructions. The staff helps with daily routines, like getting dressed, eating, bathing, and handling medications, and they keep an eye on everyone's health and mood, letting families and doctors know right away if anything changes. For those who have health concerns, Somerset offers ambulatory care, diabetic care, non-ambulatory care, and incontinence help, and the care team will even lend a hand if someone's feeling under the weather for a short time. There's a planned activity program with things going on inside the building and some offsite for people wanting to get out, so that covers social, physical, recreational, educational, and even spiritual needs, while indoor common areas let residents relax or meet with each other. When doctor or dental appointments come up, Somerset will help arrange transportation, making medical care outside easier to handle. The staff talks about respect, dignity, and compassion, working to help each resident feel at home, stay as independent as possible, and keep their self-esteem. The monthly fee covers everything mentioned, so it's simpler for budgeting, and the place focuses on care rather than frills, doing its best to fit what seniors need most. Directions to the community are part of their welcome, making it easier for families to visit. All in all, Somerset Senior Living has services for seniors who need extra help, with an emphasis on keeping life comfortable, safe, and as engaging as possible.
