    Good respite stay for mom!

    Apartment size was adequate size. Staff were excellent and very friendly and professional. We enjoyed being able to visit her and eat together in the dining hall.

    disappointment

    I assume you know the management at Emerald Valley has changed. It is still transitioning to Sunrise, so things are a bit chaotic. The best one-word description of our experience is "disappointed." Many commitments have not been kept. If you wish further information, you can set up a call with me.

    I love the facility and the people I met were very friendly. I’m not sure if it is the place for me though. The price is pretty high and you won’t consider Medicare payments. I haven’t made up my mind. Thanks [Name removed] for showing me around.

    excessive staff turnover. Food was great initially, after several staffing changes the food has declined. Continued price increases but quality in general has diminished from when our family member moved in. Hoping they will resolve their staffing issues, retaining quality staff members so they may return to the quality/level of service they had initially. Staff is usually prompt in responding to family questions or concerns.

    Room for improvement

    Communication and overall experience was great in the beginning, under original management team. They had a complete mgt turnover and then raised prices at the same time they brought in new managers who knew -0- about my mother's condition. Over billing took weeks to resolve. Serious lack of communication during a norovirus outbreak. We complained and I did get a call from someone from a regional office who said all the right things but never followed up...

    I would give all categories a 5. Been very happy. The Med techs are great & caring. Reception and med techs are very responsive to family requests. Food is very good. Everyone takes the time to know the residents names and meal habits.

    Emerald Valley

    The level of individual residents care is very good, and customizable. The facility has both assisted living and memory care so in the event of serious memory loss a resident can just move to the memory unit with limited disruption. The facility is new and feels like living in a high end hotel.

    I toured Emerald Valley. It's $10000 for the two-bedroom. It's a decorated and luxurious environment. I like it, but I can't afford it. It's a very convenient area, which is a huge difference from the one in San Ramon. It's very easy to go to all kinds of outside environments, and traffic-wise, it is a more convenient location. The lady who introduced me is very good. She did her job very well. The place is like a five-star hotel. It's very bright and very new. The room is very beautiful and better than the other places. It's very high-end. The refrigerator is a large one and new, too.

    We did a walkthrough at Emerald Valley. Everything was great, but we didn't choose it for my parents. The rooms were good. The sizes were fine, too. It's a brand-new place, so it's a good facility. They offered us to come and try the food, but since we weren't going to move in we didn't. The dining area was fine though.

    All staff is caring and attentive to residents needs, food quality and choices are excellent, facility is very clean, bright and airy common areas, very responsive to family questions/requests. Lots of daily activities and weekly events for all. Care team reminds them of meals and events, encouraging participation. Transportation to appointments is available. I am so happy we chose Emerald Valley for my parents! It gives me piece of mind knowing they are safe and well cared for!

    Would recommend community and facility.

    The food rating is low because they use a lot of spice, black pepper and heavy garlic which my mother cannot eat. the support staff are kind but many of them do not speak good English - combined with hearing loss in most older adults, communication things are often lost in the translation. They have also had some staff changes that they do not share with the residents. Good thing are that they frequently check on guests but due to staff shortages, adhering to a schedule for showers and other tasks is difficult.

    The response time for caregivers to show up to the unit is very long. It can be up to any hour or sometimes even longer from the time one presses the button. The facility is well kept (clean, lighted, etc). The staff is courteous. Management is not very responsive to emails or messages.

    Nice facility but experience was that it is not a good fit for elderly with increasing medical needs.

    This is not the place for my mom's failing health. The majority of staff is friendly. One of the management staff needs to learn compassion and understanding. If you have medical conditions, this is not the place to be. A special request diet is not honored. The menu is general. The menu should list low sodium, fat, etc food options. If you have good health and mobility, there are great trips. The place is very expensive and keeps increasing in price. If you are in good health, it is a nice facility.

    Friendly and caring service works.

    Staff is very friendly and responsive. Building is very clean, and well maintained. This is a smaller community, so staff seems to know (or know of) all the residents and families. There seems to be as many activities as my mother wants to do. (She doesn't do many). She reports that the food is good.

    The rooms in Emerald Valley were beautiful. The one that I looked at is a one-bedroom. I liked everything except the stove. They had a stove in there that only had two burners, one in the front, and one in the back. I did not like that. You should have both burners in the front. They have activities like gardening, and my mother loves gardening. I saw the food and it looked good. The staff members were nice.

    I have been here at Emerald Valley for three weeks now. There's not a lot I like about it. I have yet to get a meal come in hot. But the people that work here couldn't be any better. The staff are excellent. Food would probably be good if it's warm. They have quite a variety and everything else. There is a microwave in here so that I could heat it up, but I can't walk over there to do it. There's a refrigerator and a microwave in my room.
