Oakmont Management Group

We had to find a place for my father-in-law under an extremely tight timeframe and tricky circumstances. There were some facilities we toured that felt overly salesy in their approach, others that were wildly disorganized or felt chaotic, and places that just felt dismal for the memory care side where there was no secure outdoor space for dementia/alzheimer's residents. Oakmont of Concord was none of those things. From the moment we first stepped in for our first visit, through our myriad questions, signing docs, intake process/exam, and to move-in, everyone at Oakmont was absolutely incredible. When we stepped through the door for the first time, we knew that we had very fortunately found a place that was very different and a cut above the rest. It's a smaller facility (around 55 apartments, I believe), so the staff knows each resident well and provides caring and attentive service. The place is sparkling clean, the quality and selection of the food in the dining room is excellent, the services provided are top-notch, the secure outdoor garden is beautifully tended & enjoyed by many residents, the activities are well attended and have a high level of participation, and truly every staff person has been remarkable in their help, care and guidance. [Name removed], [name removed], [name removed], [name removed], and [name removed]. We couldn't have navigated the process without all their help. And even my father-in-law, who felt a bit "iffy" about needing assisted living, has happily agreed that everyone there is really nice, friendly, helpful and caring. Highly recommend.

Sunflower Gardens came to my Fathers rescue at a time when we needed to make a change at his current board and care. They were wonderful in every aspect of his transition. [Name removed], the Director, [name removed], [name removed] and the RN made sure my Dad was taken care of with dignity and compassion. They couldn’t of been more kind, and willing to meet my Father’s practical needs, as well. I am grateful for the staff, the beautiful grounds and accommodations as well as Angels Hospice. Although my dad passed away not to long after, he was made comfortable and the care he received was more than I could of ever asked for or imagined. God Bless Sunflower Gardens. [Name removed]

Sunrise staff are the most kind and caring people I have ever met. My Mother's caregiver stays in touch with me and lets me know weekly how she is doing. My Mother has been difficult, but they are patient with her and re-direct her to activities that she enjoys. There are so many activities to keep their minds active. The facility is beautiful. It looks like a five star hotel when you enter the lobby and a luxury residence when you enter the floor my Mother lives on. The food is gourmet and the field trips a lot of fun for the residents. I would certainly recommend Sunrise to anyone looking for a care facility for their loved one. You can leave them at Sunrise with great confidence that they are bein cared for in the best way possible.

Luxurious,beautiful,high end amenities. Knowledge and friendly staff.

Was one of our top choices but they didn’t have an opening. Loved everything about it.

Great facility! We are so happy to have our Mom live in such a caring place.

I find all the staff very attentive to my mom [name removed]

Very nice staff. Very clean and in a beautiful neighborhood. My Dad has made a lot of friends and likes the staff. He says the food is usually very good. He says there are not enough activities such as field trios. Otherwise he and my my family are very happy with Sunrise San Marion.

The facility is lovely and does not feel like a nursing home. It is clear that each individual, staff through residents, is treated with dignity and respect. The building is clean, inviting and I especially enjoyed [name removed]'s candor and ability to communicate clearly and openly.

Love this Place! Really hope it works out for my father-in-law. I think it would help him feel at home and get better.

I had a lovely visit, meeting with [name removed]. She was very knowledgeable. We toured the facility, currently under construction. I’m looking for respite care for my father in September. We are hopeful that being new, there may be something available to accommodate Dad during that time. The property will be beautiful and the staff I met were attentive and welcoming.

We liked this one better than the one in Folsom because of the larger amount of outdoor space & general layout of the facility. Just not sure if Mom can afford this one.

Very, very nice, but probably too pricey. With only 40 apts., it was almost TOO quiet!

Very friendly staff. Couldn't have been more helpful. Went out of their way to help and make Mom and Dad comfortable in their new home! Excellent food service including a welcome dinner that included our family! Nice touch! So much good to say!

Very clean and fresh smelling and looking facility. Everything well maintained. Very friendly staff who was able to answer all my questions. Will be revisiting facility with my grandma so she can make the decision (with memory care patients it helps them make a transition)!

We love this community. There are many activities to choose from daily and wonderful excursions! The food is delicious and has many options. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Excellent staffing in all respects. Open to hearing from residents and family. After looking at many, many other communities, Oakmont proved to be the cleanest and most well kept. I like that the hallways are wide and well lit and ceilings high. The food is excellent.

Very nice staff and the residence all seemed very happy. The living spaces are nice and clean. Beautiful location with many activities. Pets are welcomed with approval.

After a year at Sunrise, for both of our 91 and 92 year-old grandmothers, we still have great things to say about Sunrise and their staff. One grandmother is reasonably independent and can take care of her basic daily needs (with a lot of help from the Sunrise care team). While the other requires additional care because of her mobility and memory challenges. Both have been able to successfully integrate into the Sunrise community, make interesting friendships, participate in most of the activities, and enjoy the weekly outings (parks, museums, casino, restaurants, beach and mountains). They have come to realize that simple exercise, a great diet, and social interactions are key to creating a happier life-style. One noticeable change is their focus on what they are going to do today, as opposed to what they can no longer do, i.e. driving. We get a lot of questions about what it is like at Sunrise now that over a year has passed and we have had an opportunity to experience their services and community. Here are key examples of what we have experienced: • Their medical team quickly diagnosed an upper respiratory infection that was causing her blood pressure to drop to unsafe levels and rushed her to the ER. The were completely on top of the situation, monitoring her vitals every day and took decisive action. • Every time we visit Sunrise we are greeted by name. Why is this important – the staff takes the time to get to know us and how they can better meet our needs and concerns. Sunrise has had very little staff turnover, so it is much easier to build a relationship with the staff that is used to communicate what is going on with the grandmothers each week. • We still receive the monthly status calls from the care director updating us on the care they are providing and how well the grandmothers are doing – socially, physically, mentally. At every opportunity they seek our input – how are we doing? How can we improve? • Prior to coming to Sunrise one grandmother lived at another local assisted living facility for over a year. During that time, we had nothing but monthly issues with the billing. We were constantly over billed by $100-$1,000 each month. It took hours of my time each month to correct their mistakes. At Sunrise we have had no billing errors. They know what they are doing, and the support staff is competent. • So, what don’t we like? Honestly, I haven’t found any issue that impacts the care my mother is receiving. Sunrise has earned my respect.

My husband has been here for a little over a month. It’s sad for both of us after almost 40 years together. I take great comfort in knowing he is getting a level of care that I could no longer provide. I visit 2-3 times a week. I am always greeted by the friendly staff. Lunch and dinner are real treats, reasonably priced for guests, creative and delicious. I don’t know the full range of activities so can’t give a fair rating. However, my husband is not a Bingo, jigsaw puzzle or board game fan. Nor is he interested in any kind of physical activity. His loss.
