Ivy Park at San Ramon
5.0

I would recommend it to others. It's a nice community, the building looks good and they maintain it well which creates a positive environment for the residents. It has been very positive. The staff is kind and helpful and the residents are nice. I was able to get a bigger apartment with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. In addition it was a nice community and the staff was nice.

Atria Park of San Mateo
5.0

From the first phone call through placement, I always felt they were talking just to me. They listened without interrupting. I felt we were a team. I'm praying my uncle will feel that too when he gets adjusted.

I love Golden Care but having issue with A Place for Mom. Golden Care is great and I'm pleased, but I went on my own to the facility, not through A Place for Mom.
