Creekside Healthcare Center sits in the San Pablo area and offers comprehensive care for older adults who need help with daily activities or medical conditions, and they've really updated the place with recent renovations so you'll see furnished rooms, private bathrooms, air conditioning, and things like cable TV, Wi-Fi, and kitchenettes, and there's a garden outside and a few good spots to sit and relax. This facility has 8 certified beds as of June 2025 and provides both short-term and long-term skilled nursing care, and you'll find licensed staff on site like registered nurses, LPNs, and certified nursing assistants, all giving care 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with a focus on keeping patient ratios manageable to offer more personal help. It's a for-profit partnership, not a non-profit, and accepts Medicare and Medicaid, so most insurance works here, and you get access to things like IV therapy, wound care, in-house rehab, pain management, occupational and physical therapy, mental health support, and even memory care and post-surgery recovery.
Daily help includes bathing, dressing, eating, and transferring, and there's feeding assistance with plans set up for each resident. They have a registered dietitian coordinating with doctors for meals, which are prepared by professional chefs, and the kitchen serves food all day with different menu options for allergies or diabetes if needed. You won't find a resident council or family council here, and it's not set up as a continuing care retirement community (CCRC), so the services focus on nursing and rehab, not independent living steps. Creekside got flagged for abuse in the past year, and they continue to have inspections with tracking of quality measures, and policies are in place for infection control, especially around COVID-19 with a dedicated unit for that and set visitor rules.
There's a strong set of activities, both indoors and outdoors, with things like fitness programs, library time, movie nights, music, community activities, gardening, and special events, and staff help arrange these based on what each person likes. Creekside staff include social workers who give counseling to residents and their families, work on discharge planning, offer community referrals, and can do home assessments before or after a stay. Services also cover occupational, physical, and speech therapy, restorative nursing, psychological support, pain management, cardiopulmonary care, and orthopedic care. There's a 24-hour call system for safety, housekeeping, laundry, and move-in help for each person, and the facility tries to provide as much comfort as possible through tranquil outdoor spaces and amenities like on-site recreation and community-sponsored events.
