My daughter and I researched numerous facilities in and around Morgan Hill, California, for many months. We were looking for the perfect Assisted Living residence for my 90 year old Mom. A large part of our decision to select Westmont of Morgan Hill was due to the confidence we felt in its Nurse Director, Ria Hernandez, to deliver the level of care and service we were looking for. Ria does an amazing job of keeping her Care Team functioning at peak performance in providing excellent care and genuine concern for my Mom and all the residents at Westmont. We are at the facility several days a week and are so delighted that Ria and her team are constantly checking in on Mom to make sure that she is comfortable and is receiving all the services she needs to feel safe and "at home." The facility is very clean and well maintained and we especially appreciate all of the creative, decorative touches the team provides at each and every holiday event. The residents there all seem happy and well cared for. It's like one big, happy family! We gladly refer friends and relatives to reach out to Ria if they are contemplating moving a loved one into Assisted Living or Memory Care. It's been such a relief to know that Mom has a loving, caring team to look after her every need in this chapter of her life. Linda & Jeannie (Mom's daughter & granddaughter)

    We are beyond grateful to have found Cedar Creek. My mom lived there for 6 years until she passed,…read moreand the care she received was exceptional. We consider her being there a blessing. Cedar Creek is defined by its exceptional culture, which is anchored in profound kindness, compassion, and patience, not to mention top tier expertise and professionalism. Residents (and their loved ones) are treated like family. Throughout my mom's six year stay, we were greeted with genuine warmth. They know my kids' names, they know all about my family, my mom's history, what she was like before she was ill. They pay attention and genuinely care - this is the differentiator, why Cedar Creek is so magical. The loving environment this caring produces is incredible, and testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire team at Cedar Creek. In the weeks leading up to my mom's passing, literally everyone who works there, from facilities managers to nurses, front desk and kitchen staff to the heads of the entire organization, they ALL checked on us regularly to share their sympathies, give my mom and our family a squeeze, and offer their help. Again, they treat you like family. We could not have asked for a better environment.

    Since my last review there is an open dialogue with management towards improving my father's care…read moreand experience resulting in weekly status reports and weekly meetings with management. My hope is actual care improvement. Because Westwind services do not include basic medical care. I have included Sutter Health Home Care and a third party physical therapist to his care regiment. I have also added alternating air pressure equipment to his recliner, bed, and wheelchair to improve healing to skin degradation wounds (bed sores). Recently, Westwind has opted away from denture care for my father resulting in pureed meals. Not optimal on either point. Nutrition and hydration are a consistent conversation, to improve upon this concern I am providing nectar consistency fruit juice, protein shakes, and Ensure meal supplement. These meal supplements are supplied by me. The conversation is ongoing. I see some movement towards an improved experience for my father, but remain concerned.

    If you're thinking about placing a loved one in the care of Westwind Memory Care, stop right now…read more Looks can be deceiving and based on my experience with my loved one, Westwind could not have been worse. For instance, I observed; unsanitary living conditions, lack of room maintenance, toxic mold (in a new building!?!), mismanaged medications, constant staff turnover, bland and unhealthy food, inept (and untrustworthy) executive management just to name a few. Westwind is a large, 2-floor facility. Because of a lack of inadequate staffing levels, loving, attentive care is spotty at best. The best way analogy I could use to describe Westwind is that it is the Walmart of memory care, except that you'll be paying top dollar for poor care and supervision of your loved one. I cannot in good faith recommend Westwind Memory Care to anyone.

I'm particularly grateful for, and impressed by, Oliver's sincere compassion and care for the memory residents in the unit he directs. That's really what sold me on the place immediately, the first day I went, and he toured me through the memory care ward. I was scared to go because I had never been in a locked memory care unit before, and I imagined it would be some awful, dark, creepy, depressing, prison-like place full of anguish and suffering. It was anything but. Light, airy, clean, welcoming, with friendly staff being very attentive to everything that was happening. Every time I visited after my husband moved there, I had this same positive impression of the place. That very first day, I saw how Oliver interacted with some residents--one who was very frightened, and another who seemed very angry--and he just took the time to comfort them, listen to them, joke with them, and acknowledge them. He gave them so much dignity. It was very moving. Thank you Oliver, for doing this important work. Thank you Aegis for providing such a quiet and peaceful place for my husband to rest during his final days.

    My daughter and her friends perform music here on a regular basis, so I've visited this facility…read morenumerous times, and I've been pleasantly impressed by the kindness and humanity I've seen displayed there. As an outsider, I've witnessed how attentive and discreet the staff are when caring for the residents, and it's restored my faith in people. As a facility, it tries its best to give the residents a normal life filled with activities and events. The activity coordinator, Ms Julie Bello, does a beautiful job of coordinating events for the facility, making sure that everyone is entertained and occupied. From interacting with the staff, I also understand that many of them had parents who suffered from Alzheimer's, so this work has special meaning to them. My mother has advanced stage Alzheimer's, and I understand how important it is to be patient and understanding with Alzheimer's patients. In my opinion, Carefield is a home with a heart because of its people. They're all kind, amazing folks trying to do what's right for the residents. I hope this place remains the same when I need a place to go myself! Today, May 9th, they celebrated Mother's Day a day early with an MD brunch--a formal event with champagne flutes, live music, and a buffet style lunch for residents and their families. It made the residents feel special even if they didn't have any visitors.

    I am so grateful to Eunice, Narcy, and the care team at Carefield. My Dad stayed at Carefield for…read morethe last six months of his life. The Carefield staff was incredibly kind and attentive to him and did a great job communicating with me and the hospice team. He required round the clock care including incontinence, needing to be moved in and out of a wheelchair, and assistance eating. It was a lot. They have daily activities for residents as well as parties on major holidays such as Father's Day where they decorate the facility. One thing that is unique about Carefield Pleasanton is they only have memory care, no assisted living. At most facilities the assisted living area is nicer and roomier, and memory care is tucked in a back corner. Since Carefield Pleasanton is only memory care there is much more room for memory care patients to walk around, including an outdoor courtyard. I'm in the position of having both of my parents requiring memory care. I can honestly say if I end up in the same position I would want to have an experience like he had at Carefield.

From the Executive Director to the Marketing Director to the Activity Director & Assistant Activity Director to the Chef and ALL the caretakers and those who maintain the facility and those who clean the rooms, and the front desk assistant........they are all very professional and so caring! This is a very tough industry to work in. The kind care all the caregivers provide my Dad is amazing and honestly unbelievable. They are all positive and upbeat with the residents and very focused on providing appropriate care while also adjusting to their needs. They really work to bring some joy to the residents in this very trying time in their lives. The communication between all departments is quick, consistent and thorough.
