Independent Living
I would highly recommend this facility. The staff is readily available and genuinely friendly from housekeeping to dining staff to the front desk and maintenance. Housekeeping picks up trash daily, cleans apartments and changes bedding weekly, and maintains the common spaces to an immaculate level. The meals offer a menu with a wide variety of choices for lunch and dinner along with daily dinner and lunch specials. Both meals include beverages of choice and a desert. There is also a M-F Happy Hour from 4-5 with a staff maintained bar (2 drinks max/person) just to allow another social opportunity. There are two shuttle buses and a schedule for taking residents to doctors, shopping and running errands. There are also trips to go out for dinner/lunch and special outings.
You guys have been such a god-send. {name removed} was well taken care of and I appreciate everything through the years that you have done for our family.
I am currently a resident at The Shores at Clearlake and the experience has been good for me overall, so far. They do seem to be short of help in the dining area a lot of the time. But overall it is a nice place. I would recommend The Shores at Clearlake to others.
