A place to care for the mother of our family.

I am always amazed and extremely pleased at how caring the staff is with all of the memory care residents. The facilities are always well maintained and kept clean. The meals are tasty and sufficient, Our family can depend on the staff to support our family member to have a clean surrounding and clean clothes and to be given her daily medications as requested by her doctor.

Exceptional

My grandfather moved in recently (2 weeks) and it already feels like home. My family and I do not feel like guests when we come in but like we belong here. My grandfather and his dog have many new friends and everyone gives a warm welcome. This community felt like a beacon of light when our family was in the middle of the storm.

I am a recent resident and these are my impressions

Thank you for accomplishing the move into the Oakmont Senior Residence Apartments. The Senior care here is unquestionably fine with various care providing activity areas, managed under a team of senior care advisors. Terrific management is no wonder why the daily activity roster is full of interesting fitness, walking, and club events to find oneself involved in. We played balloon volleyball for an hour on Wednesday, while sitting in 8 chairs, rallying the balloon over the court net. Hearing the musicians at the piano is above any level of attainment I could hope to pursue, though they are practised soloist, musicians on guitar, on the keyboards, and in acappella choir leader coordinations. There is a persuasive level of audience singing in harmony with the recalled lyrics and phrase verses. The waving arms conductor of the acappella choir turns about and uses the entire room, while both of his hands are letting the audience know, when to sing vocal verses back to the choir.

A hidden gem

The care given is with warmth and caring. Very beautiful modern clean community. Communication is import and they listen and adjust to the needs of the resident. The first month I was my mom's advocate and able to customize her care. That was very important and to ask questions that pertain to your needs. Everyone is always available to support.

A pleasant facility with a caring staff

My mom moved into the Oakmont in [date removed] (so she has been living there for about a year now). The facility is bright and light. It feels like a nice contemporary hotel and everything is kept immaculate. The rooftop garden is a great amenity and in general there's a good variety of different spaces (bistro, activities room, movie theater). It feels spacious and never claustrophobic. Her apartment is also pleasant and gets lots of natural light. The schedule of activities is full with daily walks, movies, discussions, bridge sessions, exercise classes, and more. I think lots of people have images of senior facilities as grim and sad, and that's not been my experience at the Oakmont at all. I don't live in the Bay Area but have visited maybe eight times over the last year with each visit to California including four or five days of dropping by the Oakmont for meals and to spend time there. A few days ago I stopped by during a trivia competition with margaritas or mock margaritas for an

What an amazing facility and staff

This place is amazing!!! I can't say enough about how welcoming this facility is. The marketing director [name removed] was very accommodating and very insightful. I really appreciated her vision and understanding about what we are going through with my Mom. The building is in perfect condition.... like a Ritz for senior living. The staff is friendly and very attentive. I can't recommend this place enough.

Caring and thoughtful

We are so very fortunate to have found Oakmont. The apartments are well-designed and the activities stimulating. But the real blessing is Oakmont's caring and lovely staff. From the very first day, they have taken in our mom and welcomed her into a warm community, which has been wonderful for her and a godsend for our family. We are very grateful. Thank you!

Great Relocation from a Home of 60 Years to The Oakmont!

We had to relocate our 92 year young mom, just about a year ago, from a home our dad built 60 years ago and although it was a tough emotional transition The Oakmont staff made the rest of the move almost painless. We all know moving can be tough but once mom was settled The Oakmont staff was and still is amazing in all aspects of her care. Mom loves the food, the wait staff is so kind and thoughtful and when we visit we enjoy getting a meal with her in the beautifully appointed dining room. The health care staff is very thoughtful, attentive and we are assured she is being properly looked after. The concierge, maintenance staff, activities staff and ALL others have been so kind to her and she is happy in her surroundings along with all the beautiful residents that she sees daily. Lots more could be said, but for now, Thank You to The Oakmont!

Highly recommend!

The staff is very welcoming when we visit. They encourage us to visit at anytime. We see the staff being nice to other residents as well. Staff seems to like their jobs. We've been there about a year now. They were very helpful throughout the move in process. We felt they were honest, professional and kind during a very stressful time for our family. They do a good job of encouraging residents to engage in the many activities they offer.

huge waste of money and energy

this was an awful experience for our whole family. The cost versus the care had such a tremendous difference in quality. The care was well below what we would have anticipate and the food and activities were the worst. My mother sat all day with very little to do. The television is used to babysit it seems. We had to move her. The company seems to be going from bad to worse.

Our Experience

My loved one is a fall risk and doesn't sleep much at night due to Dementia/Sundowners. The fact that it has taken 5-6 weeks with 4 falls to figure out a routine has been extremely frustrating. I not only pay Oakmont, but a night time caretaker- which I'm in the process of weaning so Oakmont can be the sole provider - which will raise the price due to needing more care. Reading the contract thoroughly is imperative. Ask exactly how much care can be provided according to your needs. Everyone has expectations that our loved ones will receive the care that we provided for them. Building a team with the Administration and the Caregivers is critical.

terrible

I had lunch today with the daughter of a close friend who had her mother here. She shared with me that they moved her from Oakmont to another facility because of the lack of proper care. In chatting, I mentioned that I had read on a popular, neighborhood website a family describing their horrible experience with Oakmont including residents from the memory care escaping. I realized it was she that wrote the tremendously popular article describing her experience. The public comments to her article were filled with gratitude as to the warnings and experiences shared. I shared what I witnessed when I had visited her mom and that it left me deeply concerned. When we arrived, we could not find any employees to help locate our friend and the door to her room was locked. We finally found someone to open the door. She had been locked in her room. I don't believe legal? We are a race that doesn't typically speak Spanish and apparently this left two workers comfortable making degrading comments

Oakmont Review

The staff caregivers are very kind, but there needs to be more of them The management team is just OK. I think they have certain protocol that they need to abide by which is not always good because in memory care there are people like my mom who is just starting to forget a few things and then there are the people who are disasters and can't do anything and yelling scream all the time, even in the dining room, and it is hard to control them . The med tech are great. They do a very good job at administering medicines to the residence that is not overwhelming for them. Sorry to have to report this but I think it's important. My mom has now lived there [number removed] days and she has fallen 4× one in which we probably should've taken her to the emergency. She hurt herself pretty bad her doctor at Kaiser can't keep up with my calls and emails so they just recently put her in hospice. We are currently using , the Hospice company that Oakmont Sr Living has recommended that they use Best Hospice Providers and they are doing a pretty good job

make this your last resort

The time money and stress caused by my grandma living here was extreme. Poor quality of care, lack of staff, lack of experience and training, residents locked in their rooms with staff claiming ignorance about how that happened when they hold the keys. Escapes not reported. All around a complete mess of a facility and at a tremendous cost The positive reviews should absolutely be ignore especially "[name removed]" who tried multiple times to post a fake review on another platform. Many many families have fled this facility due to horrendous care. please look at reviews on all platforms you can as they are honest and awful. No experience is required to be a caretaker despite paying top dollar for care. Staff shortages mean the actives never happen and your loved one will be walking around aimlessly or seated in front of the tv for hours on end watching some show they never wanted to watch. Please look elsewhere.

Horrible place. Horrible

Oakmont has had ample opportunity to provide incredible service and care to the residents but ignored the many complaints. New uniforms do not suddenly mean better care when the care givers are still the same. Employees provide care with unrelated backgrounds such as McDonald's. Not for these prices. Your reputation is terrible for just cause. Even when the alarming reality of what was happening in Oakmont was fully presented to you, they ignored the facts, including that your employees speak horribly about management, residents and even families in Spanish. Do you really believe that these people are providing quality care when you're not around to watch? Let me assure you they are not. Food was so awful that we supplemented my moms food constantly. A friends mom on assisted living has meals brought in daily because of same complaints. When we asked for meals to be adjusted in any way we were advised that they are frozen meals reheated. All in all a horrible experience

Shocking quality of care

Oakmont took over a mess from Sunrise and somehow made it worse. My family member arrived in April and I am relieved to say that we moved out last week. While there are a handful of caring and competent caregivers and staff, it is wholly inadequate to compensate for the absent leadership, structure, process, and communication. The range of issues we've had span a wide array of critical safety concerns: 1) Unresponsiveness to pull cords and pendants 2) Confusion & miscommunication on medication orders 3) Unreported falls/injuries 4) Inadequate food resulting in rapid weight loss 5) Failure to test symptomatic residents for covid, to immediately provide isolation space, to notify families. Given the price tag, I was hoping for not just the above safety and aspects of care, but also enrichment and activities as well. Unfortunately, I feel like we've wasted months of precious time (particularly for someone with dementia). No loved ones & families should have to go through this.

A Great Place to Retire

My loved one is currently a resident at Oakmont of Redwood City. Overall, the care team is excellent. The sales team is excellent, as well. The facility is clean, fresh and new. They offer lots of activities for the residents to enjoy. Oakmont of Redwood City is a great place to retire.
