While it seems to be normal for caregiver turnover (especially during the Covid years), the vast majority of those caregivers were gentle, loving and genuinely loved what they do. We all made many friends of the staff, even the kitchen staff and med techs. The facility is well maintained, clean, attractive and orderly at all times. The setting up on a hill in the Sierra Foothills in north Auburn is wonderful and quite convenient and easily reached just off I80 and State Highway 49 in the California Gold Country. The rooms are either private or semi-private, so residents can feel independent Many of the administration staff were also very kind. The housekeeping director and staff were very responsive and nice. Even the maintenance staff were so helpful and compassionate. The activities director labors tirelessly to provide many enrichment activities for the residents. The receptionists are also very nice. Even the business manager is very compassionate and she attended mom's Celebration of Life. We were very appreciative of that. While expensive as it is everywhere, our mom's experience was quite good. Many staff expressed their love for our mom to us after she passed away. We were very touched by them all. Our family recommends Oakwood Village for senior care.

Solstice was a GREAT place for my mother-in-law until it was time to move her to full memory care…read more9/2024. I can't say enough good things about ALL of the staff. From the Director Joyce Perkins all the way to the maintenance and housekeepers, everyone one truly cares about the residents (at least this was our experience while mom was there). We visited the facility at least 3 times a week and at all hours of the day and night so we feel we had a good idea of what goes on there. We constantly participated in resident activities of which there were many. We even started a Kummikub group on Sunday afternoons which was a big hit with the residents and mom got to play the game she loved. It also helped residents keep their minds sharp. Kathleen, Activity Director is also a rockstar as is Paula and the other ladies that staff the front desk. Everyone keeps an eye on residents as if they were their own family members and communicated to us any issues they felt were important for us to know in our mom's senior living journey. When mom started having memory issues Joyce was there to help guide us and give us support in making the decision to move mom to a memory care facility. My husband and I both cried the day mom moved from Solstice as we felt we were leaving our family. I encourage anyone with a family member in ANY type of senior facility or memory care facility to visit your loved one (or have someone you trust visit them) at bare minimum once a week. It doesn't have to be a long visit - just show up!

We actually tried to place my mother inlaw here first but it was full. Most of the time there is a waiting list I get in. I absolutely loved this place & their caring staff & the director (Wilma). My mother inlaw would comment on how nice it was. They are kind and patient and treat their residents with respect and dignity. My mother inlaw would comment on how nice it was. It feels more like home & family than a care home. It houses a small group of residents. Staff cooks them breakfast in the mornings, make their snacks and treats. A lot of home baking. Lunch and dinner come from The Villa (one of their care homes near by). Residents can participate in the crafts they do or watch. They have a couple of Canaries the residence enjoy. There is TV in the open living space with recliners for them to enjoy. Some rooms are small (perfect size for twin bed) others are a little bigger. There are private and shared rooms. They like to encourage residents to be out and socializing. They have a lovely patio outside. The facility is nestled in a nice quiet neighborhood. My mother inlaw passed away here and staff and hospice we very kind and compassionate to the very end. I can't express how thankful we were to find this place. I could sleep at night knowing she was being well cared for.

Short term rehab resident rooms are so small a family member can barely fit a chair to sit with loved one. One TV for 2 people. At 7:00am when I went to see my mom, she was without her walker (6 days post hip replacement), call button under her bed, bed a mess and attempting to get out of bed by herself. It was apparent no one had eyes of her for a substantial period of time. The sliding glass door to outside was literally open about 24", bugs, critters, people, anything could have entered, not to mention how cold it was. It took all my strength to even close the door it was so old and not functioning properly. You also need to be aware they use a "Jack & Jill" bathroom. My mom would have been sharing a bathroom with her female roommate but also the 2 men next room over - Totally unacceptable. The CNA who came first after we arrived had no idea why my mom was there, asked me is she could walk to the bathroom - what the heck? What if I was not there, what if my mom did not have capacity and did not answer correctly. SO many red flags with Rock Creek, be aware and causcious.
