Recent reviews of Memory Care in Gonzales, CA
Whispering Pines Inn, LLC in Hollister, CA
5.0 / 5.0

Whispering Pines Inn has devotedly served the San Benito County for over 26 years. The management & staffs are caring & very responsive to their elderly residents. Being a caregiver is not an easy task. You have to have the heary & compassion which I have seen with the employees as well ad the owners who are there even on weekends. They are hands on in all they do!

Carmelo Park in Monterey, CA
5.0 / 5.0

It is smaller than the community next door. It depends on the individual; however, they have been able to accommodate a friend of mine into this community. The staff's communication and proactiveness about my friend stand out to me. They have been amazing to work with. The staff is nice, has a clean community, provide good care, and healthy food. I would highly recommend this community to others.

Brookdale Scotts Valley
4.0 / 5.0

My dad likes the security that the facility offers. He knows he's in a safe environment that can scale with his needs. He likes have the meals available and brought to him if needed. He is still very independent and mobile so not a lot of car needed. Therefore, I don't have a lot of feedback.
