    Compassionate professional hands-on dignified care

    I placed my mom at this East Bay board-and-care and couldn't be happier. The staff are compassionate, professional, and hands-on-providing 24/7, dignified care in a clean, safe, freshly renovated, home-like facility. Meals are delicious and balanced, activities are varied and engaging, and administration is responsive with strong COVID protocols. My family feels grateful and at peace; I highly recommend this community.
