Choosing a memory care home is never easy, and after visiting several places, I felt that Concord…read moreRoyale was the right choice. I was looking for something smaller, more personal, and as close to a home-like environment as possible. What stood out to me right away was the ratio of caregivers to residents; 3 caregivers for about 12 residents, which creates a level of attention and care that is hard to find. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. Connie, the executive director, is attentive, kind, and truly cares. We immediately felt comfortable there. I visited frequently, about five times a week, at different times of day, and consistently experienced the same level of care. The staff was attentive, supportive, and genuinely present. I always felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. The food was also very good, which mattered a lot, as he really enjoyed his meals. I would especially like to recognize Miguel from the memory care unit. His care and presence are truly exceptional. He has a natural gift for what he does: compassionate, professional, and deeply attentive. He truly stands out because he genuinely cares, and you can feel that in the way he shows up every day. I always felt I could rely on him completely, and his support made a meaningful difference. I'm truly grateful for the care and environment provided here.

Not sure why Connie emailed Grace to tell her to look at my review and Grace text me telling me…read morewhile you were on the phone with her. I actually left a good review for your place and was just saying what we have been dealing with. You told her i shouldn't have put what she has etc but this is not some hippa violation this is saying what we went through as a family with her. So I'm not sure what you were trying to do with emailing So far this place seems nice and the staff there seem nice too! My ex partners mother moved into the memory care unit here and was told they got her to shower! Which is amazing because she would get physical and argue with her daughter and I to not shower. She has a room by herself right now and they have her get up in the AM to sit in the living room with is great so she's around everyone and not isolated in the room. She never wanted to do anything we would try to get her to come out but she just wanted to sleep all day. So far she's played bingo, they got her to shower and change her clothes. She would get mad at us for having her change but I'm glad they got her to. She would pretend with us when she didn't want to do anything that she can't walk or she's weak but she's really strong she's climbed over a metal baby gate, pounded on windows and has left the house, police involved so it became harder for everyone to take care of her because she was always trying to leave the house and she has dementia. Here they said she was full of energy and danckg to music which is great because we could not get her to do anything! Right now she does not have a roommate, kinda afraid when she does get one how she will treat them but the staff there I'm sure is well trained to handle that. She speaks English but pretends to only speak Tagalog and they have Filipino caregivers there which is good because they speak Tagalog! She's made comments that she will run away but it's locked with a code so she's safe and can not leave. So far this place seems great. When she went to visit the brother in Texas he said the first week she did great and showered, ate etc with no issues and then it went downhill after that. Hopefully she continues to thrive here and I think the routine and activities are helping keep her busy. Her son Glen brought up some alarming stuff to Grace he said he found out from a while back but I'm sure they have fixed whatever issues and the staff seem caring and attentive. When we moved her in the staff were friendly and caring. Much better than the place in Castro valley that Eden hospital sent my mom to for rehabilitation. ( they almost killed my mom) To the staff here just becareful because she has been violent and is smarter than what she makes herself seem and we've seen here watching when they put the code in the door! She's mentioned she's going to run away too. It's a good thing Gloria is there because Grace looses patience fast with her mother and the people there are better trained to handle her Just be careful too because she will say she's being abused and scream for help. She did that and thankfully neighbors saw but staff should be aware I couldn't say anything when Connie came because her daughter told me they will deal with it if it happens there but that's something you guys should know too!

We've partnered on dementia education and discussions around senior isolation, and the staff's professionalism and willingness to engage really impressed me.

But with turnover of staff and the loss of their amazing memory care…read moreactivities director, Mune, over 18 months ago it has left their Traditions (memory care) residents without engaging activities. This position was left either unfilled or not filled with the correct type of staff. My mom has lost her want and staff does little to help reengage and affectively know how to coax her out of her room where she's left to talk to herself because it's easier. I'm so saddened. I know dementia is a progressive disease however she's still able to get around and hold conversation and joke. I see little effort to help reengage my mom when I'm unfortunately not able to be there as much as I wish to help reengage her. For the price of care, I'd expect more. My mom did get that the first couple years she was there. However this memory care is definitely not what it use to be or what you'd expect from a high end senior living facility.

So you can imagine how reluctant I felt about leaving a love one in the care of strangers. I called first to ask about the facility and the type of care they offer. The person I spoke to, I believe her name was Natasha was so lovely and answered all my questions with patience and understanding of all my concerns. She suggested I come tour the facility to see the space and help put my mind at ease even though I wasn't ready to make the move. I thought to myself wow typically when people are not ready you can easily get swept to the side. To my surprise, I was greeted with smiles, well kept common areas, a staff that was seasoned, professional and passionate about their roles. Even though I may not be ready to put my loved one in an assisted living community at least I know there is a community like the Kensington that will care for my family the way I do.
