VerifiedExcellent Board and Care Facility
My Mom lived at Britannia house for just a bit over two years. She was treated with the utmost compassion and care. [Names removed] run a quality business with the best staff. Mom used to fall a lot at her last location, she was much safer here. The environment is homey and is immaculate. The location is excellent, near 280 and Woodside Plaza. There is a lovely bright sun room for privacy/meetings and a gorgeous backyard with a nice patio. Mom especially liked the home-made applesauce from (name removed)'s apple tree. The staff are very attentive and patient. The food is thoughtful, healthy and there is a good rotation of items. I also referred my neighbor to Britannia House II for her mother, but I personally haven't seen that location yet. I was very happy to have had Mom as a resident of Britannia House.

Spotless and Tidy
The care that is given at this community is outstanding. I really, really like the care that my mother is getting. I can not speak highly enough about the owner and her staff. It looks very nice and it is kept spotless. I have recommended family and friends to this home.
