WellQuest Living

I have had friends ask me and I am highly encouraging them to consider the Grove. I'm speaking to one about it tomorrow. The staff at the Grove is incredible. The fact that a large part of the staff are still there from when my father lived there from 2012 until he passed to heaven in 2015 is a testimony to the type of organization and caring in that community. To be hugged on and loved on by staff when we moved my mom in was so helpful in our own stress of finding the right place for her. She made her own choice but we were so happy she chose the Grove. Already the staff has been incredibly flexible to my mom's needs and [name removed] the chef made a special gluten free meal for our family in the family dining room the day we moved her in... that kind of special attention can't be found everywhere! And the fact that the Grove has cared for my dad's cat for the last 8 years is a testimony of their "people centered" services!

The staff are all very helpful and truly appear to love helping the residents. Facility is dated but always clean. Very comfortable for mom.

Moving my dad into Carmel village was one of the best things I did for him. The value for the $ was unmatched. He was well taken care of and his $ lasted longer than in other facilities. .

I actually was acting telling a good friend about it yesterday, how it's a nice place. It is very clean, very nice, the staff is nice and there is a pleasant atmosphere.They do a lot of activities there. They are doing some remodeling, so it's looking good. Also, they do wellness checks which is really good. I would recommend this place to whoever that's looking for a seniors place to live.

Their compassion and care is unmatched. Carmel Village is so professional and everyone working there is so very kind. I would recommend this facility to others.

My mother recently passed away and so I am writing this review for someone considering Park View Place. If you are seeking an engaged Executive Director and team, you will find it here. While there is no perfect place anywhere, PVP is a beautiful facility with staff that engage in conversations with their residents. There is a hairstylist, a gym, a game room, a bar, a movie theater. And, you can eat meals with others in the dining hall or in private. You can live as independently as you choose or you can request additional services. For me, knowing my mother was surrounded by people who genuinely cared about her and who could support her physical needs was most important. Our family found Park View Place to be a wonderful place for our mother.

I most definitely recommend the facility. Every single staff member we met were extremely friendly. When someone heard me walking behind, she stopped and turned around to acknowledge me. I originally put my sister in law into a one bedroom apartment for assisted living. However, after the first ten days, [name removed], the on-site managing nurse, and I agreed that memory care would be better. So we made another move. The transition was seamless and the quality of care she is receiving is exceptional. My sister in law is so happy as they get her up every morning and she is engaged in a full day of activities. I cannot say enough about the quality of the entire staff. The food isn't great, though there are options to choose from. I expected it to be relatively bland to meet most dietary needs, but it's basically institutional food. However, it is restaurant style which makes for a pleasant overall experience. I looked at several assisted living facilities and found many were previously hotels, which is exactly how it felt inside. Carmel Village was initially an apartment complex, so it feels more homey and permanent.

Visited this facility not knowing what to expect… I was wowed by the professionalism of the staff and the cleanliness of the grounds. I appreciated the timely manner I was attended to and then the cheerfulness of the marketing director and the willingness to answer all of my questions was a major plus for me. Without a doubt I 100% recommend you to visit and consider Cardinal Point for your future home.

My mom been living here for over 10 years. Now as she is aging she started to receive care service. The level of attention and support provided to residents is truly commendable. The staff’s dedication to ensuring comfort, safety, and genuine happiness is evident in every interaction. From personalized attention to fostering a vibrant community, their commitment to individual needs is remarkable. Highly recommend cardinal point for their outstanding care and warm, welcoming atmosphere!”

My wife and I have lived at Cardinal Point since March of 2020, and have been very happy here. Our 1100 sq. Ft. apartment is very comfortable, and the staff is congenial and competent.  We participate in numerous activities that keep us well entertained. We take great pride in serving on the culinary committee and are able to make suggestions to our head chef on menu options. We feel safe , heard and happy.

At Cardinal Point Senior Living, the kaleidoscope of activities available is nothing short of remarkable, offering residents a vibrant mosaic of enriching experiences. The staff, embodying warmth and dedication, turn daily routines into cherished moments, fostering a sense of belonging. The commitment to cleanliness is evident in every meticulous detail, ensuring a pristine environment. Amidst this background the community buzzes with infectious joy of happy residents, making Cardinal Point not just a place to live but a haven where life flourishes in a symphony of activities, attentive staff, cleanliness, and resident happiness.

I have lived at Cardinal Point for seven years. I am 94 & love the staff, the food, my apartment, the ability to walk to a big shopping area, the lovely little movie theater & much more that makes Cardinal Point MY HOME !!

My mother has recently moved from a home in Walnut Creek to Cardinal Point in Alameda. This brings her close to family and friends and we couldn’t be happier. The staff has been wonderful. Supportive and empathic. It is a great move for her. She is settling in nicely, taking advantage of exercise, gatherings, excursions and making new friends.,

My loved one is currently a resident at WellQuest of Elk Grove and everything has been great at this facility so far. They were very patient with explaining options/details. The move in was super easy. The food is decent and it smells good! I would definitely recommend WellQuest of Elk Grove to others.

I would absolutely recommend this place to others!Wonderful, [name removed] was great to work with. The staff is great! We picked this community because of the location, and friendly staff.

Pasadena Highlands is expensive, but it is well worth it. I was expecting our loved one to be depressed with the move, but he is happier than he has been for years. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to others

It's very expensive but Pasadena Highlands is so nice especially with the private outside patio on the room. It was less if a challenge finding a suitable place for mom than I thought it would be. It's taken 2 months but I think all the kinks are ironed out.

The tour at Villa Capri was a wonderful and helpfull .experience. We covered all of the public areas on both the first and second floors. The lunch on the patio was outstanding and delicious. The apartments that we saw were spacious and had excellent views of the surrounding area. The staff could not have been more accommodating and informative. We came away with a very positive feeling but not yet ready for the transition at this point in time.

The move in was very easy. Easy moving my loved one from Assisted to Memory Care also. Food has been an issue. My loved one does not eat pork, chicken or meat. They knew this going in. The current chef is really trying to make things there better. He has new recipes and I do think the food has been better since he came. Housekeeping is great. They empty trash and keep rooms clean. They do my loved one's laundry (I used to do it in Assisted Living). I think the staff are nice. They probably need more staff, but I think they try. I would like more activities on a daily a basis. Sometimes they have things written on a calendar, but the activity doesn't happen. I do think that it is extremely important for families to visit. Very few residents in Memory Care have visitors. I think they may treat my loved one better because they know my family is there everyday, at different times. I do think they should communicate with families more. They have recently raised the rent almost 10%. That is a lot. But, they have been painting and planting and making the building more inviting. I like the Memory Care Director and the caregivers. It is a very challenging job. The Memory Care Director, [name removed], is always smiling. The new Executive Director, [name removed], is trying to organize and make things more efficient and pleasurable. Overall, I would place my loved one here again, if the choice were for today.

It's very pricey but if you can afford it then I would recommend it, unless your loved one is a foodie. Complaints about the food from day one. Best suited mom, more like a resort. Loved the staff. Friendly and caring. Beautiful environment.
