The caregivers listened to her, were respectful, and promptly attended to her needs and requests. She ate fresh organic food that was cooked everyday. She was able to walk in the large, calming backyard with beautiful trees and flowers and sit and relax in the comfortable outside seating. I truly had peace of mind knowing that my mother lived the last months of her life in such a tranquil and loving place. The leadership of Home Sweet Home, the owner, Ali, was always highly engaged with the residents, enjoyed talking to and interacting with the residents, and ensured that a very high standard of care was implemented everyday. God bless them all!

Hand down the best facility of its kind that I've ever seen…read more Sheryl and Vivian, their directors, are amazing. My mother stayed here for three weeks respite care after a difficult recovery from a hip replacement. She has had similar sojourns in assisted living facilities on three previous occasions. None of those facilities even came close to Pinole Senior Village. This is first and foremost because of the superlative staff at Pinole. In many other facilities staff are a combination of pushy, saccharine, aggressively salesy; and disgruntled, grumpy and clearly unsympathetic to the seniors in their care. And I get it - caring for seniors with varying degrees of physical and mental ailment is about the most demanding work there is. Some of the seniors here are fully capable, even drive. Some require a lot of care. I witnessed staff treating all residents with respect and kindness - and never anything less. The staff at Pinole make their work look like a pleasure. They smile sincerely. They're patient, polite and still real - and they work their butts off. They're really the best I've seen. They treat the facility like a community and work hard to foster connections among the inhabitants. The facility is clean and in good repair. There are a few patios including a small dog park. They have a daily exercise class for seniors and lovely lounges throughout. The food is good - sometimes great. I visited my mom nearly every day while she stayed here, often with my small children and a giant off leash Labrador (my mother's). Staff went above and beyond tolerating us roaming through the halls and making space for us at meals. Vivian often had popsicles for the kids at the ready. Sheryl worked through her birthday weekend to admit my mother on a tight schedule. I know assisted living communities vary greatly and money can buy almost any degree of comfort. Sadly, for most seniors money is a very limited resource. The prices also enable real people to live here and secure comfort, security and around the clock assistance.

She is truly caring and loving yet professional as well. She is a skilled nurse so our family felt very confident regarding the physical well being of our mother. We felt blessed to find 7th Heaven as it is a warm, caring, loving place and as close to being at one's home as we could find. Olivia made sure mom had healthy, tasty food that she liked to eat and kept her clean and comfortable. She also makes sure the residents don't just stay in their rooms or beds but has them in the living room which is open to the kitchen so it is a very inviting environment. As I mentioned, Olivia does all this with such care, love and grace. We are forever grateful for Olivia and such a wonderful place.

Funny I just read the review recently posted by another person who coincidentally has same name as…read moremy mother, who Olivia cared for during the last 6 or 7 months of her life as well. Well into her 90's, my mom was a bright, cheerful and intelligent woman. Her last couple years were characterized by the typical and in her case rapid diminishing of her ability to communicate and function as an adult. In spite of having no prior history with her, and my mom's increasing irrationality and at times downright stubbornness, Olivia cared for her like a loving daughter would her own mom, allowing us to see her progress to her recent departure with dignity and comfort. It gave us tremendous peace of mind to know that, unlike the facility we moved her out of to be at 7th Heaven, our mother got the best care anyone could hope for, both physically and emotionally. I and my siblings cannot recommend her highly enough, and thank God there are alternatives like 7th Heaven around (and they are not all alike!!)

It quickly became obvious that I was going to need full-time in-home care for her during my absence. That evening, I made a phone call to Visiting Angels of Livermore. They offered to provide a full no-commitment assessment, and I accepted. The next day, Mr. Keith Beck, Executive Director, came to my home and evaluated Mom's situation and needs. Mr. Beck was on-time, professional, organized and efficient. Following the assessment, we were introduced to a recommended caregiver who, assuming my approval, would be responsible for Mom. She was professional, very conversational with Mom and an experienced caregiver. By the end of the appointments, I was confident that Mom would have good, comforting care while I was gone. I was extremely impressed that Visiting Angels responded so quickly, and was also able to provide and dedicate quality staff in a timely manner. I continued the caregiving services on a part-time basis after I returned home as Mom was still not quite stable. Another caregiver was introduced and assigned. After a couple of weeks of continued part-time care, Mom became much better and I was comfortable with stopping the services. I highly recommend Visiting Angels of Livermore. All of my experiences (and my Mom's) were positive. It is a very well managed business with a reliable, kind, and supportive team: owner, office staff, and caregivers. Thanks to Visiting Angels I was able to enjoy my vacation. I will definitely use them again when and if the need arises. If you are considering in-home care for a loved one, Visiting Angels of Livermore is it. An excellent Yelp score....5 Stars all the way!
