Over the last few months, I have researched a variety of care/living options for my uncle,…read moreincluding at-home care and senior community living. I was immediately impressed when I researched Springfield Place in Petaluma, CA. The staff went out of their way to answer questions and to provide any help needed before, during, and after the decision-making process of whether or not this was the right location for my uncle. Once he decided that this was where he wanted to be, the staff helped in every way possible to get him moved in and set up in his new home, including personally going to Kaiser's medical offices when we were having trouble getting some of the required forms signed by the doctor. Without their help to navigate Kaiser's medical system, I think we would still be waiting on those forms long after I had to return home on the East Coast. The staff had excellent covid protocols in place that made me feel like my uncle would be as safe as possible. They had a great set of documents to help me organize what was needed to move him in quickly and efficiently. Their facilities staff was helpful in hanging a few pictures that I couldn't manage. The front desk had a welcome sign up for my uncle during his entire first week there. The other residents made a point to come introduce themselves and to say hello. There was a notable mix of residents who were at various stages of care and mobility, and they were often out in the common areas talking and socializing with each other. There was a guest room that I was able to use for a couple of days to help make the transition a bit easier. The food was surprisingly good, and I'm rather picky. I was expecting cafeteria level food and was delighted to find that the food was restaurant quality....and better than a few restaurants that I went to during my stay. They have a variety of rooms layouts available, all at different costs. We went with a large studio with a large den, and we used the den as a bedroom. This apartment that we chose doesn't have a window in the bedroom/den, but it does have two large French doors that open into the living space making it feel bigger and brighter. We were able to fit a lot more furniture and "stuff" than I had imagined due to the extra closets by the bathroom. I know a lot of people are concerned about the costs of senior care facilities, but at Springfield Place we got the apartment, the assistance of the facilities team, the nursing staff, laundry assistance for towels and sheets, the front desk staff, three meals per day, heating, electricity, and community activities all within the price of the monthly payment. When you add all of that up and then add on top of it the fact that you know that your loved one is not alone and that there is someone always around to make sure they are okay.... the price seems more than reasonable. The price does increase a little depending upon the level of care that your loved one needs, but even that seems reasonable, especially after seeing how well the staff cares for those who need additional levels of care. All in all, I am very happy with the experience and am really glad that we found Springfield Place. Plus, as my uncle says "It's close to the golf course!"

I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere for hospice care. Continuum Hospice added stress to an…read morealready stressful situation--my mom passing. Care was inconsistent from the start. After enrolling on a Saturday, no nurse visited until Friday, leaving us on our own for five days. The nurse who did come called (with poor reception) to suggest stopping all medications, then never followed up--I had to track down the physician myself for guidance. I wasn't given the blue book--"Gone From my Sight" that explains the dying experience until the day before she died. Communication and clinical judgment were unreliable. When she had a severe reaction to morphine, it was dismissed by a nurse, and I had to escalate to the physician to get her medication changed. The day before my mother passed, I was told she was not transitioning. She died the next day. There were also clear signs of understaffing. They repeatedly offered help with bathing, but no one showed up for weeks--too late to be appropriate. After her death, the nurse who arrived to declare her death had her name wrong and lacked basic information we had already provided. So I was having to correct the spelling of her name and get my phone to give her the name and phone number of the mortuary. I had given this information to the social worker so it should have been in their system. A small thing one could argue. But did not make me feel cared for. Compassion for my mom passing was absent. It was totally transactional. I regret not changing providers earlier. I tried to initiate a change, but the paperwork was not sent in a timely manner. If you are not happy with a Hospice change at the first sign of trouble as transfers once someone is close to passing are more difficult. I should have been able to focus on my mom and dad during these difficult final weeks--not manage gaps in care.

Angela agreed to provide servicing of my mother's medication throughout the night every four hours. We even discussed the hours that they would provide care during the night. Angela put none of this information in writing. This organization and head nurse cannot be trusted to do what they say they will do. Continuum says we did not call for help throughout the night. Of course we didn't because we were told by Angela they would cover us.

There is so much to say. First, the people who work there care deeply about the people who live there. When we met Lisa, we met someone who listened deeply, helped us solve any problem we could think of, and suggested solutions only after really understanding Jackie's needs. The tour she shared made us feel so comfortable with what life is like at BC. She was so thoughtful and considerate with helping us find a charming apt with a deck and outside area where Jackie's wee dog could get outside whenever she needed to. When Jackie's needs shifted, Lisa found a special place for Jackie in the memory care area, a bright, cheerful room, where she can look out at beautiful redwoods from anywhere in the apt. The attendants encourage her to engage with others and she feels quite at home there. When we met Robert, the GM, we knew we had met an advocate who is very flexible and such a problem solver that literally nothing seems like a problem for long. We know we can go to him with anything and he will find a way to "make it so." He has been wonderful to Jackie and us. When we worked with Stephanie to create Jackie's personal care plan, we trusted her thoughtful, comprehensive recommendation because it reflects just what Jackie needs, nothing more, nothing less. Her recommendations helped us make decisions we are very comfortable with, decisions which get Jackie just what she needs. Virtually everyone in the facility shines with a spirit that we did not see in other places. It is a spirit of love and focus on possibilities and what is best for Jackie. We feel so lucky.
