The housing includes options like senior apartments, condos, and townhomes, and there are care choices like companion care and even nursing home support if that's needed down the line. Safety's built in, with things like home security, ID theft protection, walk-in tubs, and medication dispensers, and there are guides and reviews for medical alert systems such as Bay Alarm Medical, Medical Guardian, and ADT, so families feel a bit more at ease.

Nice facility but unreliable care
I moved into a newly opened, visually appealing facility and the staff were warm, attentive and helped me adjust, but the experience was mixed. Despite friendly caregivers, care was unreliable - missed wound care and medication discontinuations, poor PCP communication, inconsistent housekeeping/laundry, unfulfilled off-site activities, broken promises about Medicaid contracts, no ramp access, and sudden deposit/rent increases - so I can't recommend it until those serious issues are fixed.
