Memory Care
It has been wonderful for my parents - my wheelchair-using mom and dad who needs memory care. Very important for them to stay together in the same room and SonomaGrova was able to accommodate it. The staff is excellent, treating parents with total respect and sensitivity.
We toured a few different communities and this one seemed to be the best fit for my mom. She is doing well here.She is starting to meet new residents and make some friends. She is participating in some of the activities. She really likes the food. The community is always clean and well maintained.
My loved one thinks highly of the food. I have talked to the caregivers that assist my loved one. These caregivers call me and inform of anything going on with my loved. I believe the staff is very friendly. The community is taking care of my loved one. I am able to drop in and see my loved one through a window. My loved one always seems to be clean when I visit her at the window.
