My Aunt entered the hospital on an emergency basis. Within days we realized that she needed to be placed in a caring facility. We contacted aplaceformom.com. They were extremely responsive and provided us with options near us. John at The Kensington Cumberland went above and beyond to help us. My Aunt was three hours away in Ohio. They facilitated getting her to the Kensington. Once there they were very helpful in assisting me with the paperwork and provided a tour of the facility. They take excellent care of my Aunt and provide me with timely follow-up calls. They have a lot of activities to keep the residents engaged.

This is not a fancy place but I was struck by the caring staff. They have worked to make they meet all of my mom's need, be it getting up in the middle of the night to use the restroom, making sure she puts clean clothes on every day, bathing, participating in different activities and just making sure she is happy. I felt it important that my mom did not have to move again, so the hospice wing was a comforting consideration. The place is old and a bit run down, but it is very clean and gradually being updated. The park like setting is very tranquil.

Mom loves living at TLC. The staff is wonderful and very loving. They recently remodeled and the rooms look like boutique hotel rooms now. When you walk in, you can smell the difference; it always smells fresh and clean. The food is great with the new Executive Chef. He personalizes the preferences of each resident. The new Activity Director has bought lots of fun activities and entertainment with lots of live music, field trips, ice cream socials, etc. What a difference!

our experience has been really good with them so far. They're very clean and compared to some places they're pretty reasonable, price-wise. We didn't really do a lot of shopping around because of Cypress Meadows' reputation and location. We also had a close friend who had someone there and they highly recommended it. We're pretty happy with the whole situation, So far, so good! I think the think that probably really kind of sold us on the place was the consistency of their staff. They don't seem to have a lot of turnover. That's always a good thing in a business. They keep in touch with us. If there's ever an issue with mom they call us right away. They're proactive in having us participate in her care and that's great.

We're pretty happy with them. It seems like a really great value. I know there are more expensive places that are none of it's cheap but I've heard other places are more expensive. They have a game room They have music, hikes they take, bocce ball, I believe. I think my mother-in-law has improved but at her age it's hard to change from one place to another. They're doing everything they can. They certainly come in and check on her all the time. I really don't have any complaints. We're very happy with them. They're close to our home and for me, that's huge. They're very helpful. They're probably not as fancy as more expensive places but they're certainly clean and provide everything. They're right by the hospital.

It’s a really nice community. This is what I wanted for my dad; it doesn't feel like an institution and feels more home-like. There is no odor and it is kept really clean. The girls here are really nice and they care about the residents. The girls have been working here a long time; the community has a very low turn over rate. They really like working here and they take good care of the residents. We are pleased with them and would recommend them to anyone.

toured on Saturday; really nice place; very warm and accommodating; a little far but definitely one to consider

My brother was in the Country House for 5 weeks. The Country house was excellent in every way.

Looked at both, reg and memory care area. Overall Nice,Clean no smells. Room is big, with room for dads recliner. Has kitchen type nook with storage for snacks and mini fridge. Building is showing some signs of wear. 10yrs old. Have asked different providers and all of them have spoke highly of the Staff, is very good. Residents were friendly and seemed happy.

The friendliness of the workers and the other residents. The food was good and it was clean.

Tour was nice and very clean with beautiful facility and very friendly staff.

our experience with CountryHouse has been so far so good. they offer a lot of activities, such as: making cookies, floral arrangements, trips out and about outside of community, and morning exercise classes - my sister loves all of these things. everything is located all on one floor and the although the community may be a little short staffed; they are still moderately staffed for the amount of residents they have. the food is great, my sisters likes it a lot. we have no complaints, she loves being here!

Great place for the value, very happy so far.

Mom has been here a little over a year. What a fabulous place. The staff and caregivers are wonderful. The residents are kept very active and mom loves their outings. I would recommend Sunol Creek Memory Care, with out hesitation.

The staff, especially [Removed] were warm and welcoming. The staff were all friendly and astute to my Moms needs. They all made her feel right at home. I highly recommend Astoria.

My husband liked this community when he visited. The people he met were nice and the community seemed clean. This is in a nice neighborhood. This community just did not seem like the right fit for his mom.

After reading a few of the reviews I decided to write a review of what I experienced while touring this community. I toured this community on 12/17/2016 and was very surprised at what I experienced. The building is a lovely building sitting in the heart of a neighborhood environment with the concept of making the residents of their community feel like they live in a home and not an institution. The grounds were beautifully landscaped with serene sitting areas, big trees and a huge back yard with pathways and a gated environment to accommodate the memory care residents. The inside was a warm inviting feeling. Several Christmas trees were decorated throughout the facility, staff interacting with the residents while decorating gingerbread houses and Christmas music playing. I was impressed with the community Manager greeting me on a Saturday and explaining to me that she was there to engage with the residents during their party. The environment was very clean and has recently been newly remodeled to give a home-like, warm, inviting feeling. The one thing that stood out and impressed me was how I was greeted and made to feel like my stopping in unannounced made no difference to the quality of services provided in this community. My husband was very impressed with the community and asked "how old must you be to live here!" The residents were smiling and the staff were very engaging in the Christmas spirit. After researching this company on line and asking questions during my tour, I'm very impressed with the philosophy of care and high standards to make every effort to customize individual needs and being dedicated to focusing on the needs of family members coping with a loved one who has memory loss, Alzheimer's disease and entrusting someone other than a family member to care for their loved ones and seeing first hand what this community offers in the terms of care, compassion, activities, down to earth family style living, a beautiful and quaint like atmosphere, a one story community vs a two story community, the posted Facebook activities that are provided to the residents daily & each holiday celebrated in a big way, put a smile on my face and a feeling of trust and gratitude to this community for the work they do that is clearly making a difference in the lives of those they serve. If you are looking for a place to call home for yourself or a loved one I would highly recommend you tour this community prior to making your decision.

My husband was the first person to move in to this new home. From our first tour and interview to today when they had Easter Brunch for the families...we have been very happy with the place and the people... They treat everyone as their family and customize their program for each individual... We couldn't be happier and thank A Home for Mom for finding this place for us ...

The facility was near to my mother’s residence and close to her known contacts in the area and the facility seemed to meet all her needs – care, therapy, dining and hair salon. I believe Sage Glendale is a viable and suitable option to assisted living for residents that are ambulatory. My mother is not in that category

Sunol Creek is a lovely facility with some very wonderful care givers. Unfortunately for my husband, it is not working. He has Parkinson's with dementia and has taken numerous falls while in their care. His needs are just too much for them so we are looking for something more intimate. I would give them a 4. We have only been there just shy of [time frame removed}
