Every interaction reflected genuine care and a commitment to making her final days as peaceful as possible. The staff was attentive, responsive, and highly skilled, always taking the time to address our questions and concerns. Their presence brought us reassurance and comfort when we needed it most.

The A Plus Home Health Care team responded to my family's urgent and ASAP needs on the drop of a dime and when my mom passed, they even attended her funeral services.

She got the ball rolling right there on the spot and had a list of people from P. T. and nurses I would be seeing for the next few weeks. I couldn't think of any other people I'd rather have taking care of me after surgery then the people at A Plus Home Health Care . There's Amareet, ( I don't know if I've spelled any of their names correctly ), nurse Cathy, Delma, Robert and Kathleen from P.T. Each one of these people were caring and skilled at their job. Kathleen was just the best. From my well-thought-out exercise regimen to answering all my questions which people tend to have a lot of after having surgery. She called Robert in to have a look at my hip for the amount of swelling I was having. It was great having someone to talk to that who was able to put you at ease and let you know that what you were experiencing was normal . I can't say enough about all of these people and the wonderful company that they work for. I honestly don't know what I would've done if if I hadn't had the help these people provided. When you're scared, unsure and overwhelmed with information, it's nice to have people that take the time to listen to you and provide the care that you actually need. Thank You.

Having a grandfather with Parkinson's disease deepened my understanding of the importance of patience, dignity, and compassionate care; values that Creekview consistently demonstrates. I am truly appreciative of the professionalism and empathy shown by the entire team, and I would feel very confident entrusting my own family's care to this facility. Overall, Creekview reflects excellence in both care and workplace culture.

It quickly became obvious that I was going to need full-time in-home care for her during my absence. That evening, I made a phone call to Visiting Angels of Livermore. They offered to provide a full no-commitment assessment, and I accepted. The next day, Mr. Keith Beck, Executive Director, came to my home and evaluated Mom's situation and needs. Mr. Beck was on-time, professional, organized and efficient. Following the assessment, we were introduced to a recommended caregiver who, assuming my approval, would be responsible for Mom. She was professional, very conversational with Mom and an experienced caregiver. By the end of the appointments, I was confident that Mom would have good, comforting care while I was gone. I was extremely impressed that Visiting Angels responded so quickly, and was also able to provide and dedicate quality staff in a timely manner. I continued the caregiving services on a part-time basis after I returned home as Mom was still not quite stable. Another caregiver was introduced and assigned. After a couple of weeks of continued part-time care, Mom became much better and I was comfortable with stopping the services. I highly recommend Visiting Angels of Livermore. All of my experiences (and my Mom's) were positive. It is a very well managed business with a reliable, kind, and supportive team: owner, office staff, and caregivers. Thanks to Visiting Angels I was able to enjoy my vacation. I will definitely use them again when and if the need arises. If you are considering in-home care for a loved one, Visiting Angels of Livermore is it. An excellent Yelp score....5 Stars all the way!

From the very beginning, they treated my mom with incredible dignity, compassion, and respect. They didn't just care for her medical needs--they cared for her as a person. Every nurse, aide, social worker, and staff member showed genuine kindness and made sure she was comfortable, supported, and surrounded by love. As a family, we were scared, overwhelmed, and navigating something none of us were ready for. The hospice team became a source of strength and comfort. They answered our questions with patience, guided us through every step, and provided reassurance when we needed it most. Their compassion extended beyond my mom and embraced our entire family. A couple in particular felt like family. The love, dedication, and tenderness they showed my mom will stay with us forever. They celebrated the good moments with us, sat with us during the hard ones, and helped ensure that my mom's final days were filled with comfort, peace, and dignity. Losing my mom has been heartbreaking, but I find comfort in knowing she was cared for by such extraordinary people. Hospice is not just about end-of-life care--it's about preserving dignity, providing comfort, and surrounding families with support when they need it most. Lifeguard did all of that and more. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us care for our mom and for treating her with such love and compassion. We will never forget what you did for her and for our family. Forever grateful.

I have learned a lot more now, but it's too late. The care was seeming good at the time. The…read moresupervisor that first came to my home and talked to me agreed with me my mom was not really needing hospice care. After talking to management she all of a sudden agreed with the office manager that she did need hospice care. It seemed as if the manager made her agree to putting mom on hospice care. It was a sudden turn around as if they would lose a patient. I'm wondering if they get paid big bucks if they get hospice patients, and if they pass, their SSA will no longer be given to them. I gave a good written review when they sent me the letter to give a review, but I have another friend going through this now, and it seems like they are encouraging her mom to pass. They keep telling her the mom is in transition, but the mom is still eating a little food and has no pain. I pray for God to forgive me for letting them come to care for my mom. It seems like they encourage meds to give to them. Same situation for my father in 2 months later. It was a different hospice, but all 3 of the care for hospice seem to have the same agenda.....I miss my mom!

The food was delish. Dad didn't love the coffee but he can make his own. :) The staff has been there a long time and the ownership is also long-term which I find stable. There are a lot of pluses, but the icing on the cake was that each of three different residents talked to us in passing, and they were very cheerful and appeared happy. My dad is excited to move in soon, and it's a relief to the rest of the family. We're looking forward to my dad experiencing the Men's club, weekly happy hour, and nightly movies.

My father lived in this facility for nine months, during which he fell 13 times, despite my clear…read moreand early disclosure that he had Parkinson's dementia. Rather than revising his care or offering support, the facility ultimately evicted him after his final fall, labeling him a "fall risk"--a fact they had known since day one. They violated legal eviction procedures by failing to give a 30-day notice, and informed me while I was out of the country, leaving my father in the hospital and me scrambling to find a new place for him. The lack of empathy during a vulnerable time was inexcusable. To make matters worse, the facility said the only way they would allow him back was if I paid for a private 24/7 nurse--an expense they knew was unrealistic. This was clearly a tactic to push him out while appearing cooperative on paper. Not sure if Aireen T. is still the director but she is not responsive, professional, caring, or compassionate at all. I had to involve Ombudsman to get responses from her on everything. There are also serious safety and staffing concerns. During a power outage in the heat of summer 2024, the facility had no backup generator. We overheard firefighters asking staff where the generator was, and staff admitted there wasn't one. During this incident a female resident was stuck in the elevator for literally hours on a hot summer day!! It was horrifying. Others, like the woman across from my father's room, were left in the dark yelling "hello, is anybody there?" My family and I went to her to calm her down ourselves as no staff member checked on her or other residents to reassure them during this electricity outage. They are clearly understaffed and many of the caregivers are not certified CNAs, and it shows. Staff routinely defer to residents' refusals for essential care, and hygiene, rather than providing informed, proactive support for those with cognitive conditions. Many times I showed up and I could smell he hadn't showered. When I asked staff why they would say that he refused so they didn't do it. Medication for my father was not consistently dosed at a consistent time which was also a huge problem. My father also experienced racism from two other residents, and when I raised this with the Director Aireen, they brushed it off--blaming the behavior on health issues such as UTI and did nothing to protect or acknowledge the harm done to my father. Aireen and executive management did nothing to soothe our concerns. This facility is not safe, not equipped, and not compassionate. I would not trust them with any loved one under any circumstances.
