I sometimes become skeptical over Yelp reviews wondering who is actually writing them. What I'm…read moreabout to write is from the heart and if anything, I've understated the facts. If you have ever had to go through the process of finding suitable care for a loved one then you already know what a nightmare that can be. Their are facility owners who highly exaggerate their level of care, unqualified staff and unsuitable living conditions not to mention abuse. After several disastrous and dangerous attempts at placements for my Great Aunt and Mother, God blessed our family with Genesis Care Home for The Elderly in Vallejo. My Great Aunt was in her late 90's and my Mother suffered from Vascular Dementia. We had removed them from an unsuitable care facility and moved them right into Genesis Care Home after just one meeting with Sharon, the owner. After what my Mom and Aunt had been through, I was very direct in telling Sharon what level of care we were looking for and Sharon was equally honest and forthcoming about the level of care she provided and her philosophy on the care for the elderly. Let me start with the word Compassion. No matter how disoriented, difficult or delusional my mother or aunt became, the entire staff always remained compassionate, respectful and loving. The staff came into their rooms with a smile and spent many hours just laughing and talking with them. They took the time to ask them questions about their lives and treated them like family. My Mom even gave them each nicknames. We are a very large family who would drop by all the time unannounced and always Mom and Auntie were clean, bathed and very well fed. The food that was prepared for them was spectacular....and I'm a retired Caterer! Anytime of the day, the residents can help themselves to snacks or fresh fruit. During the Holidays and their birthdays the spread they put out is unbelievable and all family members are not only welcomed but encouraged to stay and join in. Genesis actually took the time to find out what my Moms favorite foods and T.V. programs were and made sure both were provided. The staff regularly took the time to call and express their concerns over medications, behavioral changes or their general happiness and comfort so as a team, we could make whatever adjustments were necessary to make their daily lives better. Both my Aunt and Mom have passed now, but I will continue to stop by for a visit to Genesis Care Home, to visit this very special place, and this group of phenomenal ladies. I am forever grateful, Diana A.

For someone reason my first review did not post and so I am resubmitting because I want to share…read morewith all of you our experience with Sonata Hospice. In late October of 2025, our family was scrambling to find a hospice care provider for my mother in law. Finding a reliable hospice provider for a loved one is a daunting task often made under stressful circumstances. Our family, after extensive searching and disappointing recommendations from other sources, found Sonata Hospice through positive online reviews on Yelp. This review comes from a genuine family who utilized their services for a critical 10-day period. The level of care provided by the entire Sonata team to both our loved one and our family was amazing and far exceeded our expectations. We felt completely confident that our loved one was in excellent hands, and we as a family felt fully supported throughout this difficult process. Several team members deserve specific commendation for their outstanding professionalism and genuine compassion: Rachael (Nurse/Case Manager): Rachael was outstanding. Her work is a true blessing and a calling. She provided expert clinical care while simultaneously offering immense comfort to our family. The attentiveness she provided our loved one was consistent with the level of care one gives their own family. Her clear communication, explaining procedures, answering questions, and involving us in the care plan was a model of professional and empathetic care giving. Marsha (Home Health Aide): Marsha treated our loved one with dignity and affection, like she was caring for a member of her family. Her hands-on care was superb. Maria (Chaplain): Maria brought much-needed peace, love, and spiritual support during a challenging time, helping us navigate the emotional and spiritual aspects of the process and providing our loved one with that extra level of care. The Office and After-Hours staff were consistently responsive and efficient in meeting all our immediate needs. The support they extended through the difficult moment when our loved one passed, provided ease and compassion during our time of grief. And our hearts were warmed when at her funeral we saw Rachael and Maria present and still supporting us. Deciding on end-of-life care is perhaps one of the most significant decisions a family can make. Concerns about the quality of care, trustworthiness, and prioritization of patient well-being over financial considerations are paramount. Sonata Hospice put those fears to rest. They are a trustworthy, compassionate, and highly professional organization that we wholeheartedly recommend to any family navigating the hospice journey. I hope this review makes the post and can provide another family with reassurance.

Sooo, I don't know how your relationship with hospice started, but here is mine…read more Our loved one was admitted to the hospital with some very serious medical issues. The hospitalist (treating doctor), sent around a palliative care doctor (doctor who specializes in improving the lives for people with serious illness), who explained that our loved one would benefit from hospice services. The doctor went on to explain that it doesn't mean our loved one was going to immediately pass away, but just that hospice, amongst many things, gives more care to people who need it and it was the hospital's opinion that our loved one would benefit from this service. She went on to recommend a hospice service her mom had and left me with "Great!", we'll check in tomorrow and let us know who you selected. "Wait, whut?!" So I only get *24 hours* to select the service providing critical care to my loved one? So with that, I was off to find a hospice service, but not confident it would be *the best* hospice service, if only given 24 hours to find them. I was lucky enough to think of someone I trusted (the Executive Director of our loved one's care home), who immediately provided me with five hospice services. We ended up with the first service we contacted, Sonata Hospice, on the basis that 1) they were very local to our loved one's care home (2 miles) 2) most of the nursing staff was local to the office 3) most of the nurses were educated with the issues of our loved one (they had the specific speciality within their RN designation) 4) the very arbitrary fact that the owner was born and raised in Berkeley and lives in San Diego and our loved one was born and raised in San Diego and lived in Berkeley for most of their life. (That is to say, by that time, I had a good feeling about them). I will just briefly state what happened to the other four services - two were very aggressive and just turned me off, the other was outside of their service area, and one didn't answer the phone. Sonata turned out to be the right choice! Our loved one got such stellar care, that a significant number of other resident's families saw what good care our loved one got (full bathing in the shower every other day, not a sponge bath, consistent specialized care and respectful and compassionate communication) that they actually switched from their hospice service to Sonata! Sonata provided exceptional care to our loved one. From the beginning, when meeting with the very knowledgeable and very thorough Director of Patient Care who comes to you and takes a medical history and gives her patient the "once over". The Certified Nursing Assistants come to provide patient hygiene and are extra eyes for the nurses (looking for skin issues, etc) to the volunteers who sit with patients (because, let's face it, family is not the bomb all the time) to the social workers and religious personnel; they all provided seamless medical expertise, compassionate care and super prompt service to our loved one. Another thing that makes Sonata outstanding is the way they treat their patient's families. Having your loved one in hospice is so stressful! Worries abound - are all the patient's issues being addressed, HOW are all the issues being addressed? What if something comes up? Sonata treats all the people involved with the patient (family, caregivers) with comprehensible and simple medical expertise (they never speak above you), compassionate understanding and most of all, they are available and ready to go if something comes up or are there if other issues come up and more discussion or action is needed. If their patient passes away, if needed, they provide grief support for everyone, even after the patient passes. Hospice has one of the hardest jobs in the world. They help patients through what may be their patient's last time on Earth. Patients are not super bueno with their situation as is also their family. They are tasked with providing medical expertise, end of life care and compassionate attention to everyone concerned (patient and family) in very emotional and could be tumultuous times. We entrusted Sonata Hospice with escorting our loved one through the last phase of their life. What we got was exceptional medical expertise, the most compassionate and caring staff ever, comprehensive care, not only for our loved one, but for our family too and 24-hour open communication. Hospice care is an essential need in palliative care. For my family and for all the reasons stated above, we are forever grateful to Sonata for the service provided to our family in a difficult time. They are our only choice for hospice care.

When hospice became appropriate, it was Imelda who recommended another stellar agency to step into this roll. ComForCare and Imelda bring years of caregiving experience and a deep knowledge of the services available in Solano County to the table. I too have years of experience in caring for aging adults. Imelda is always my first call when someone asks for my recommendation. She has always over-delivered and has never let me down.

It is far better than the places we had my mother before. I wanted to get my mom out of the larger, louder, impersonal institutions. The great advantages of this smaller facility are: 1. The owner, Alma, is highly professional, and closely monitors the trained staff she has. The staff is excellent at spotting common medical issues in seniors which are frequently overlooked in larger facilities. 2. My mom is kept much cleaner than she was at the previous place. 3. They have customized my mom's care in a way that could not be done at the larger facilities. 4. Fewer residents at this place means less chance of catching COVID infection at the facility. 5. The better staff to patient ratio means my mom has the same people taking care of her each day which I am sure is more comforting.
