I have been a resident of Brookside Retirement Residence for almost three years months. W must say…read moreI am very glad to part of this facility. It is my home and I love it here for many reasons First I would say the staff here are very helpful and friendly. They go out of their way to see to our every need. The residence is very clean. It is spacious with a library, game room and a laundry facility to wash your clothes. Once a week my room is cleaned and new linens and towels supplied The maintenance men are very attentive and immediately fix any problems The food here is excellent and the menu is varied. Everything is delicious and healthy. I am diabetic and the kitchen staff bends over backwards to help me with my diet providing sugar free alternatives. You can get as much food as you want and even take leftovers to your room There are many activities, a well equipped exercise room, a library with a wide variety of novels and reference books to borrow My entire family can visit me here. They can attend special events and dinners. I would highly recommend Brookside if you are looking for yourself or a loved one.

Our 82 year old Mother Barbara has been living here for a little under 2 years now and LOVES…read moreeverything about IT!! Unfortunately she fell recently and is recovering in the hospital but she mentions missing her pals and home almost daily. The staff goes all out to make their residents have a good time. Theres always something going on at Brookside. I was just there visiting (I am from Hawaii) this past Thanksgiving and there was a talented musician playing in the dining area. My Mom acted like she would rather be in there with her friends and neighbors than coming with me to our family gathering! hahaha. Below is my mom, sister and BIL at their recent Hawaiian Luau night. FUN. Is it contemporary modern with posh upscale finishings? No it is not. Does mom care? She could give a rip. Do we care? NOT ONE BIT. The price is right and the community there is EVERYTHING!! Thank you Brookside staff for all you do! And big mahalo for hanging some of my moms large art pieces in your common areas! Makes her really feel at HOME.

This place is off the charts amazing! I only have one experience with this type of place and that…read morewas with London house in the 1980s when my grandfather was there and the only thing I remember was that the whole place smaller like urine! Disgusting! Sunrise Villa is NOTHING like that though! This is a fancy pants place! When you walk in you are blanketed by the amazing smells of the delicious food from the kitchen, and the dining room has chandeliers, cloth napkins, crystal glasses, and table service with huge menus for every meal! It's literally like a fancy restaurant for every meal for the residents! That cannot be beat! The entire place is immaculate, with no dirt or bad smells anywhere that we can detect, and that's a huge plus. Just the idea of assisted living usually conjures up negative things but Sunrise Villa creates a whole different experience, a wonderful one. My folks have only been there for one month, having come from a beautiful hilltop home on sonoma Mountain, and they are both already saying they are happy there. There are tons of amazing activities scheduled all day long, and their amazing two bedroom apartment gives them a living room, a bedroom,and an extra bedroom for my father's computer and office. On top of all that, Grace, who helped us through every step, is the most kind, loving, understanding, and patient person to help your family through this difficult time. She is amazing! Thank you Grace! Sunrise Villa is not cheap however, and you'll need plenty of money in order to stay there, but it's definitely worth it, and they have created an assisted living facility that takes the sting out of the painful family process that leads to the need for it. I recommend it highly, if you can afford it.

I attended one of Healdsburg Senior Livings big fundraiser events they do for local non-profits…read more They brought the Rat Pack tribute Band from Las Vegas as a fundraiser for the Alz. Assoc. They had a full on Casino with live music, a buffet w/ deserts and champagne. After 2 hours of gambling for prizes and enjoying the food, it was time for the Grand finale. Everyone went outside to a big white tent that seated 300 guests. We were treated to a Vegas style show that had the crowd on their feet. Everyone loved it. It was so popular, they brought them back again the next year. No wonder the residents are so happy there. They really know how to throw a party.

Tony Fisher is an invaluable gift to Pacific Senior Living and to the entire senior industry…read more Tony is a pioneer and innovative visionary leader whose passion for the seniors is stamped on the culture he has created over the past 10 years at Pacific Senior Living and in Sonoma County. I am inspired by Tony's passion, dedication, and above all, his integrity to provide the best to our seniors. You can see for yourself the wide portfolio of programs Tony implemented at Healdsburg Senior Living! He created a huge landscape with a tactile and vegetable garden filled with exotic, environmentally friendly flowers which enhance the preservation of bees. He implemented an animal program with chicken coop and many other animals. He is an essential promoter of the "Alive Inside" music and memory program for those who are living with Alzheimer's and Dementia. In addition, Tony uses all these programs and his rich environment to promote his educational passion through his powerful Comm-University Program. This program brings in 300-400 students monthly from 13 schools in Sonoma County. With this program, Tony took his passion to the educational realm. He is giving students the opportunity to learn compassion and how to interact, serve and honor the wisdom of our senior population, specially those who are living with Alzheimer's and Dementia. In short, Tony's legacy in the senior industry is transforming the way we do business in this field. Tony, I am honored to call you as my friend!

Being a…read moreCEO of a Seniors Living company in Australia, we embarked on a learning journey of the offerings in America. I can honestly say that The Terraces memory care at Fountaingrove Lodge was easily the best memory care offering I have seen in my travels. Kelsey Irmer was a wonderful host and the team were outstanding. The person centred approach to the care for residents along with the fun filled activities, ensured the best outcomes for their residents. Well done to the the team at Oakmont, Fountaingrove and The Terraces for a world class offering.

They took care of our mom like she was their own mother. They made her feel loved and comforted, and always took extra time to just visit with her.

Chancellor Place in Windsor was such a beautiful place for my father in his last days. All of the…read morestaff were very attentive and compassionate and always asked me if there was anything that they could do for my father while he was there for 5 months. There is a beautiful garden area in back and the food was very good. When my father was declining rapidly they were always there for me. When I was leaving with him after his death the whole staff stood in a double line and they all placed lilies on him and gave me hugs. They all said they would miss him and I know they were sincere. I would highly recommend Chancellor Place to anyone seeking an assisted living facility for their loved ones. I will always be grateful for the care they provided my father for his recent final days!

My mom was a resident there until her death . The CNA that let my husband and I in her apartment…read more went back and stole jewelry from my mom's dresser. It was a good thing I had done an inventory. Spring Lake did not seal off her room to anyone but her family. When I confronted the Director about the theft, she told me I was upset about my mom's passing. I suggested she look at the log who went in and out of the room. I also told her that I had already notified Santa Rosa police , they took my report seriously. It turned out the CNA that took my Mom's jewelry also stole from others. If you put your parents there , make sure anything of value does not move in with them. Ask them for their policy on what happens when your loved one passes . It's bad enough to have a sudden death of your loved one , you also do not need to have a crime committed against your family .

It is expensive to live here, but if one can afford it, it is full of wonderful features,…read moreespecially the trees, the walking path by the Santa Rosa Creek, the kindness of the staff (several of whom we met that have worked here for over 34 years!), a skilled nursing facility, and the various options for apartments or cottages, many of which look out on to a huge lawn with trees that must be over 100 years old... or so it seems. And flowers planted with blossoms that last. And as you walk around, you may well be accompanied by the songs of birds that are everywhere. Also, if you're happy eating just breakfast and lunch, your monthly allotment will cover that. Dinner on its own uses up the daily points but is abundant, varied, and you can also fill up a container with your favorite things to take home. Why there are not more 5 star review of this amazing, 40 years old place, is really hard to understand. If in doubt, come check it out! :o) That said, there is usually a fairly lengthy waiting list.
