I was visiting a friend at Lakeside Park. It was a very nice facility. It was well run. They were very friendly and very attentive to the people who lived there. They would take them out for walks in the neighboring park along Lake Merritt. They were very supportive of their patients, but also very concerned about their safety. The staff was competent and caring. They had a nice courtyard outside and they're also half a block from a big park along Lake Merritt. They seemed to have several activities going on every day.

AgeSong is an incredible eldercare community. Elders with dementia are treated with love and compassion and above all, respect. The elders come from all different backgrounds, sexual orientations, socioeconomic statuses, and so on. The motto of the place is "Freedom to Be". That says it all, to me. The staff is warm and friendly, and truly loves what they do. I have never seen the caregivers, medical staff, or mental health interns treat the residents with anything but loving care, even in the face of challenging behaviors. I've been to other care facilities, which seem so cold and depressing. The staff at the other facilities I've visited don't seem to enjoy their work, and it makes it sad. AgeSong does so much to give their residents a wonderful quality of life-outings, beautifully decorated common spaces, apartments furnished with personal belongings of the residents, mental health interns who do individual and art therapy, live music - it's just so nice to see our elders taken care of so well. I highly recommend an AgeSong community if you're looking to place your elder with dementia in the Bay Area.

Our family was very fortunate to finally found a place were we felt peace and assurance for ourselves and for our loved one's safety. We are all very thankful and proud that we are all now part of AgeSong family.
