Northstar Senior Living

We had our setbacks, but it was just getting things set up, so I'd give them a five. They are very clean community with a very friendly. I wish the memory care area had a larger outdoor area. I wish there were more activities. Alzheimer’s patients really benefit and need access to the outdoors, places to walk.

They are very loving and organized and caring. We haven't seen anything they need to improve, as of yet. They are flexible in working with families. They are communicative. They have been willing to work with us. We really like their flexibility and we chose them for their geographical location.

From the moment I stepped into the lobby I knew I had found the right place for my mother. The interaction between the staff and clients was friendly and caring. The people eating in the dining room seemed to be engaged in interesting conversations. I was particularly pleased with the building. It was beautifully furnished and very clean. The grounds were well cared for and there were places for clients to garden if the so chose. Mom moved in and everyone made her feel like a queen.

Overall they've done a very good job here so far. I'd give them 5s across the board, its a very clean and nice looking facility, the staff have all been very friendly, and the services they provide here are good. The only issues I've noticed is that they had issues with transportation for a while when one of their buses broke down, and it took them quite a while to get it repaired. This caused some issues with scheduling appointments and off-site errands.

Pacifica Senior living is a super place to put a loved one. The staff is very courteous, caring and professional when it comes to personal care. Very willing to help wherever needed and will go beyond the call of duty if needed. My mother would still be there if she wasn't in long term care.

clean, great place. Certainly one I would consider for my mom

Somerford Place in Roseville has superior staff that is respectful and kind to the residents, their family and friends. My father (Leon ‘Ray’ Rhea) had attended the day program previously. Now that his memory issues have progressed, he lives in a shared room at Somerford Place, though he currently doesn’t have a roommate. The staff understands memory loss/changes/progression, and work to stimulate the resident appropriately and individually based on their needs. If you have a family member with memory issues, this is a 'peace of mind' place that honors, stimulates, cares for, and loves your family member, like they were their family. They engage the resident 7 days a week in daily activities appropriate to the individual. You will not find your family member sad or alone. Everything from nursing, general hygiene, meals, exercise, activities, mind stimulation, and simple conversations (though sometimes one sided) helps honor and respect the resident. I thank God for Somerford Place for my dad.

My husband is here now and I love it! The nurses and staffing are on top of everything. They communicate greatly with the doctors that are affiliated, with each other and with me. They're very attentive, I find, to all the residents. They know what's going on all the time - I don't know how the do it. I'm very pleased.

We loved it, but it was farther away for me from where I wanted to look. If he were able to go to more independent living I would look into this, I was really impressed with it. It was very upscale, a lot of things to do there and with independent living I think he could have gotten out a little more and the kind of people there were not as debilitated.

I would rate this community a 6. They are just a great community. They really know how to care for my loved one. It is very clean and well maintained. The staff is very friendly. The food isn't great but when I visit I make sure I bring a bottle of hot sauce if I plan on eating. Overall it is a great community that I am happy my loved one is in.

I am pretty pleased with them A Place for Mom recommended them she has a room share a bathroom but are private room value for what they had to offer. Keep open line of communication lunch with her the food was pretty good impressed they have two entrées per meal. Extremely impressed with the staff they have there. The staff is always present when the residents are eating. They have a really fast response time. Staff knows everybody there. They offer really good activities for the residents. They have people from outside like musicians come in and entertain the residents. The staff is always there supporting the residents and really getting to know them. I would recommend them to anyone.

Beautiful and perfect. Price may be a difficulty if long term placement.

Very nice place! LVN's and RN's on staff 24/7. Also, they will feed the patients, take them around in their wheel chairs, etc. if they cannot move around thereselves. Very carring atmostpher. Nice yard. They BBQ, and have lots of events. Works with Kaiser, and can provide transportation to and from Dr. Appts. I am approx. 5 mins. from the place too.

Very nice place, people very nice and helpful. Gina was great. Lots of activities, good food choices, can have pets, good personnel to resident ratio.

Toured on Monday. Approximately 75 clients in two story building. Food was tasty, low salt and healthy. They have entree choices and a salad bar. Fresh fruit always available. Rooms were a nice size. Particularly impressed with shower unit. There is a foam edge so feet do not have to be lifted over ledge. A chair will easily fit. Lots of activities. Clients seemed very happy. Clean facilities and well maintained. Small frig. and microwave included. Large closet(s). Space to turn around with walker in bathroom. Impressive, concerned about price.

Great place - friendly, lots of activities, good food and some amazing services for a good price. I love that families can come by and eat for free and that they will give you furniture to use, if you need it.

Very wonderful people and the residents seem so happy . Was nice to the see the folks who work here, engaging with the residents and lvoing their jobs! Awesome!
