My mom is in MuirWoods Memory Care. The community is vibrant, caring, attentive, and flexible. My mom's room is comfortable and able to make it like home. I think they have good quality food. They are attentive to dietary needs or requirements for food. The dining area is kind of the center hub of the community there because, after meals, they do their activities there. They have exercise, mentally stimulating games, and games that keep them physically moving. They have enrichment-type things like music, old movies, celebrations, and art. On the weekends, they take the bus and drive around the area, which is nice to get a new change of perspective.

We chose MuirWoods Memory Care for my husband. I liked the staff that checked him out. It looked very good. Everybody looked kind of happy. He was able to get his own private room. They have a bus system if you have to go to appointments and stuff. It's frequent communication with staff if you need something. They have a courtyard. The hospital is less than a mile away, everything is close, and it's smack center. Very close, very good location.

I visited MuirWoods Memory Care. It was a very nice tour. It's a good facility because it is only memory care. They got their act together for that. The staff were very good. The lady that manages it gave me a great tour. They had a sign out with my name on it when I came there. Welcome, Eric, which I thought was very cool for my visit. We spent about half an hour looking around the facility. The rooms seemed pretty standard, they seemed fine and well-designed, nothing special. There was an activity going on. I think it was some kind of bingo or something, and their activities director was there taking pictures of it. It seemed like they were having a good time. It was a very good design for memory care, they have an open courtyard in the middle, and it allows people to go out there and do what they need to do, and have free access to the whole place.

I went to MuirWoods Memory Care. I like that they do activities every day, and everything was very clean. I like the way the building was structured, so that the residents can look out, but it's an enclosed area with a garden, so it's very pretty. It was a good tour. The staff was very professional and just answered all the questions that I had.

Everybody at MuirWoods Memory Care was very helpful and kind. The woman who led me on a tour was very knowledgeable and very friendly. The environment was nice. They had pictures of the residents when they were young on the walls outside their rooms. It is totally designed with the objective of reminding you that these people are still human.

MuirWoods Memory Care struck me as being the most family-oriented, warm, and friendly environment I stepped into. There's a group of men who loves to work in the garden. The sales director would greet each resident by name and they seemed to brighten up because they knew him. It felt very homey and good. The custodial director said it's the best place he's ever worked in. It's a really great place. It's older, but they're renovating it.

He's staying at Adobe House Memory Care Community, and it has been wonderful. It's for memory care, only so it's restrictive in that sense. It's relatively small, and it's very nice. They've been working really well with him.

My overall impression of Adobe House is very good, so far. I went to take a walk around and meet some people, so it was really nice. There was a gym, but I didn’t see a pool. There were quite a few activities, which was really neat, like art, aerobics, and singing.

We've been at Adobe House Memory Care a couple of times for a visit. It's a nice facility dedicated to people with Alzheimer's. The staff is very friendly and have been good with doing follow-up calls.

Adobe House has the most loving care staff. Many of them have worked there for years; there is very little turnover which makes a big difference for me and my family. They have great knowledge and understanding of dementia and had plenty of resources to help me and my family through the journey. My loved one was happy and always in the activity room with her "neighbors". Even when she was no longer able to communicate, she was still part of the daily activity. It was a great experience.

I am looking for a facility for my father who has dementia. I toured Adobe House and was very impressed. The whole facility is dedicated to Dementia and Alzheimer's . There are 35 units and there is courtyard so the patients cannot get to the door that leads outside. I was also pleased that they introduced me to the chef. They have a real emphasis on nutrition and use all local produce. The staff is very nice and friendly. They go around and check on the residents every hour.
