    My mom was a resident there until her death . The CNA that let my husband and I in her apartment…read more went back and stole jewelry from my mom's dresser. It was a good thing I had done an inventory. Spring Lake did not seal off her room to anyone but her family. When I confronted the Director about the theft, she told me I was upset about my mom's passing. I suggested she look at the log who went in and out of the room. I also told her that I had already notified Santa Rosa police , they took my report seriously. It turned out the CNA that took my Mom's jewelry also stole from others. If you put your parents there , make sure anything of value does not move in with them. Ask them for their policy on what happens when your loved one passes . It's bad enough to have a sudden death of your loved one , you also do not need to have a crime committed against your family .

    It is expensive to live here, but if one can afford it, it is full of wonderful features,…read moreespecially the trees, the walking path by the Santa Rosa Creek, the kindness of the staff (several of whom we met that have worked here for over 34 years!), a skilled nursing facility, and the various options for apartments or cottages, many of which look out on to a huge lawn with trees that must be over 100 years old... or so it seems. And flowers planted with blossoms that last. And as you walk around, you may well be accompanied by the songs of birds that are everywhere. Also, if you're happy eating just breakfast and lunch, your monthly allotment will cover that. Dinner on its own uses up the daily points but is abundant, varied, and you can also fill up a container with your favorite things to take home. Why there are not more 5 star review of this amazing, 40 years old place, is really hard to understand. If in doubt, come check it out! :o) That said, there is usually a fairly lengthy waiting list.

    My grandmother was admitted to Park View around October, and I started visiting her pretty often…read more From the very first time I walked through the front door, I was greeted by Alana with a kind smile that immediately made me feel welcomed. Every time I visited, Alana was incredibly helpful in showing me where to go and helping me find my way around the facility, even at different times of the day. What really stood out to me, though, was the way she interacted with the residents. She always seemed genuinely kind, patient, and caring. It was very clear to me that she wasn't simply there to collect a paycheck -- she truly enjoys helping people and making the residents feel cared for. One day, I asked my grandmother if she had ever interacted with Alana, and she immediately told me that Alana was really nice. She even mentioned that Alana had taken her on a quick walk. Hearing that meant a lot to me because, as a family member, knowing that someone is taking the time to make your loved one feel comfortable and cared for is incredibly reassuring. Alana made a lasting impression on me and my family. Her kindness, genuine personality, and willingness to go out of her way to help others are exactly the qualities you hope to see in someone working with elderly residents. Park View is very fortunate to have someone like Alana on their team. I'm incredibly grateful for the kindness she showed both my grandmother and me. If you're looking for a place where compassionate people genuinely care about the residents, I would absolutely recommend Park View. Alana deserves recognition for the wonderful work she does every day.

    My father was a patient there for about a month last July to August. We placed him on hospice and…read morehe was arranged to be moved to a home care facility for end-of-life care, we were not present for the transport. The company that was booked arrived in a commercial vehicle and they claim Park View refused to give them a wheelchair to transport him. At this point my father was barely speaking and experienced drops in blood pressure whenever not in a laying position. They did not call my mother to inform her that he was being transported in what I would describe as a medically unsafe manor. In my opinion they never should have allowed him to leave their facility in such a way. He arrived extremely disoriented and weak and fainted once he arrived at the new home care facility. I would hope no ones loved one would experience something similar.
