Astoria Gardens sits about 2.2 miles outside Vallejo, California, in a spot with easy access to parks, restaurants, seven doctors nearby, and three hospitals within a short drive. This community includes a range of care types for older adults, like independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, respite care, and in-home care, so folks can get help with daily tasks or medical needs, or live independently if they're able, and there's a bunch of named communities included like Cogir of Vallejo Hills Senior Living, Truewood by Merrill Pinole, The Lodge at Glen Cove, and others, each with their own style and options. The setting feels like home, with cheerful staff, a central fireplace, courtyards, bright trees, lots of roses, and a water fountain, plus outdoor walking paths, raised garden beds, a butterfly and hummingbird garden, and patios where residents and their pets-dogs and cats with some restrictions-can get some fresh air. Folks have access to many activities, with a game room, billiards lounge, movie room, fitness center, arts and crafts space, woodworking shop, and music or organ room, and there's always something planned, including group outings and trips, devotional services, and programs for exercise and cultural enrichment, all supported by staff who speak many languages.
The dining room serves meals every day, offering private or shared seating, and they work with special diets like vegetarian or diabetic at no extra fuss, and the kitchen staff try to keep everyone healthy and happy. Astoria Gardens covers a good span of living arrangements, from detached homes to studio rooms, one or two-bedroom apartments, condos, and townhomes, so folks can pick what works best, plus the rooms have Wi-Fi, TV options, and easy access for folks with mobility needs. The community helps with housekeeping, laundry, and transportation if needed, including rides to appointments or errands, and there's covered and regular parking for the residents. For more serious needs, residents can get assistance with bathing, dressing, medication, and more, and there's skilled nursing, memory care for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, rehabilitation, wound care, and hospice care available with nurses on hand around the clock. Security stays tight with features like a Wander Guard system, safe gates, and enclosed courtyards, aiming to keep residents comfortable and secure.
Amenities include a beauty salon, barber shop, library, park, and nearby pharmacy for convenience, and friends and family can visit during broad business hours all week. The community also offers support through the move-in process, with a senior living advisor to explain options, costs, and services, which can include extra care for an additional fee. Social activities and off-site events help folks stay busy and connected, and respite care means short-term stays are an option, too, so there's flexibility for different needs over time. With a focus on comfort, safety, and friendly staff, Astoria Gardens tries to make day-to-day life as smooth and pleasant as it can, with honest options for care and living, and plenty of space for pets and visitors.
