Recent reviews of Memory Care in Lafayette, CA
The Ivy at Golden Gate in San Francisco, CA
4.2

Most staff are very friendly, with occasional lapses in service (too busy to help dress; slow, slow kitchen sometimes); coordination of offsite pharmacy and medicine technicians could be better; like in any health care setting, patient advocacy (usually a family member) is essential (especially during the initial period) to insuring that the care is appropriate, complete and timely. Supervisory staff & management are very responsive.

Cogir of Brentwood
5.0

We just moved in and everyone is so friendly. The staff is super helpful and the residents are most welcoming. People have been extremely kind. I have an extensive list of food allergies and the servers and cooks are accommodating.

The Point at Rockridge in Oakland, CA
4.7

We chose The Point community because of the location, it is very close to us which is convenient. The staff members are very friendly and the care that we have been able to see is immediate and pretty good.
