WON'T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR

Overall = 4.5 Staff = 1,000,000/5!! Everyone I interact with is amazing. Very impressed with their care team. From the janitor to the Director - they are all exceptional and really care about their roles in these elders lives! Facility = 4/5 (This may have a lot to do with change of ownership - doesn't make sense to update something if someone else is going to come in and change it anyway). It is in need of an update. It is always kept very clean. But some of the furniture and fixtures could use some updates. I'm interested to see what the new owners will do! Food = 4.5/5 I think this is just how it goes for the style of food they have to make. Hard to accommodate so many different diet restrictions, I'm sure! They do offer a large variety for any meal. So if the main option isn't appealing, there are always multiple other choices to make. Meal time seems to be everybody's most anticipated daily activity. It truly is the only guaranteed unique thing each day. I think most don't pay attention to the menu ahead of time and enjoy the surprise of what's being served that day. I think there should be more activity centered around food prep and menu planning. A lot of these residents are really bored and would probably enjoy washing fruits and vegetables. Sorting different sizes. Sorting dishes and silverware, the possibilities are endless! But that requires staff, which requires funding, which is unknown until the new owners step in. Activities = 4/5 Activities are only as successful as the participants are willing to make it. It really does depend on the group demeanor at any given time. Certain residents can certainly raise or lower the enjoyability of things. They do offer consistent activities. I wish there was more focus on physical movement beyond the daily exercise class. I feel like it should be incorporated in everything, throughout the day. Just for general core strength and mobility improvement. But again, that requires staffing, which requires funding. Room size = 5/5 I think the rooms are a perfect size! You really can personalize however you choose. And I think it is awesome that everyday, everyone is up and dressed and beds made. I really think that is key in keeping people's moods uplifted and helping keeping them engaged day to day. Most people spend a lot of time outside of their rooms and interacting with their neighbors. Side note- there's a lot of great outdoor spaces that aren't used as much as they could be. But they do a great job of having beautiful landscaping and bird feeders throughout the property. There's always something blooming, or a cute creature foraging. They also have a perfect location in Livermore. Extremely close to multiple medical facilities and services. There's even a grocery store right next door.

My Experience..

I would give a 5 rating for all categories 1-8. So far I've been happy with the experience at The Watermark. The staff is always available to speak with and pleasant. Yes, I would recommend the community to other families based on the experience.

Happy with our choice

The care givers are fantastic. They really try to help the residents have the best life they possibly can. The facility is a bit on the old side though it is generally well maintained. The only real issue is heating and cooling. They can only do one or the other so sometimes the room is too warm.

A Lovely Livermore Lifestyle

All caregivers are angels and have difficult jobs. I would recommend Rosewood for very elderly patients who don't need much hands on care or attention. It's a nice place for singles to live out their final days. I would recommend it for people who don't have many health issues. Love it. One mile or less from a major hospital and medical offices plus they have weekly outings to Trader Joe's and other grocery stores and they go to museums, plays, restaurants (like Olive Garden) . They also have field trips across the parking lot to the independent living side to use the gym and swimming pool. One of the chefs worked for Princess Diana... There are also cottages for independent living. We didn't look into that at all because we needed assisted living. It has worked out well.

Disappointed with care received

The administrative staff, intake person was very pushy and difficult. We went to check out the facility in mid-December. She immediately told me they had just one room available and o needed to put down $[removed] to hold the spot. Then we had to move my dad before the end of the year. I told her we couldn't move him until mid January. She insisted we had to live him within two weeks of deposit. She didn't give us the paperwork needed to get my dad admitted. She refused to send any paperwork to our father's doctor. The previous facility in Modesto helped with every aspect of paperwork. Not pushy. And we're really helpful. [name removed] at Rosewood is really their only bright light. She was VERY helpful and caring. The caregivers were incompetent. And not at all qualified to do the job they were doing. My dad's health declined dramatically after moving him to Rosewood. The caregivers let my dad sit in respiratory distress for hours. They finally called me saying he was "nonresponsive." I sent my sister to check on him. The state he was in prompted my sister to call 911. The paramedics were appalled that it took numerous hours for them to even call his family. And that they didn't take the initiative to call 911 themselves. When [name removed] was there she was very good, but the caregivers were not. Granted my father was difficult to deal with and had acute dementia. But the care was less than adequate in my opinion.

The Watermark at Rosewood Gardens, review

They are all 5s this place is the best fit for our mom. The staff treats all residents like their own family and knows everyone's name even the family members that come in. Treats the residents with respect and dignity. Everyone is always happy. They work really hard to make it easy for the residents to live an a wonderful environment

Welcoming and supportive

We chose The Watermark at Rosewood Gardens because it was very close to me--less than a mile and we knew 3 others who had or do have a family member there. the front room of the apartment is spacious in comparison to some.

Great staff and facility. Would recommend.

There is a lot to like. The caregivers are great. They keep me informed when anything happens. We moved my dad to the assisted living side and he is getting great care. Meals are restaurant quality and he likes several of the activities. The only negative is the high cost. Of course it's one of those "you get what you pay for " things.

Our Experience

My loved one's previous facility was much better. Having said that, the Nurse [name removed] at Rosewood is quite amazing. The sales director was not that great, in my opinion. She was very pushy, only concerned about getting money into there ASAP. She never gave the final monthly fee once my loved one was assessed for care. She gave no guidance with regard to paperwork needed for admittance. I did complain to the facility director. It basically went nowhere.

Peace of mind knowing that my husband is well taken care of.

The staff in the memory care unit treat the people in their care with kindness,affection and respect. They are truly a godsend for people with dementia.

Communication, in the beginning, was an issue as we were all new to the environment and facility. Communication has gotten better and we think we are moving in the right direction. We do think the the staff has the residents best interest first and foremost.

Great Community

The caregivers at this community are nice and treat my grandma who resides there kindly, even though she can be difficult at times. Communication has been great with the care team. They have always called me with any change to her condition, even if it's a minor skin tear. I can trust that she is well taken care of when I'm not there. The food they serve is amazing. However, we would like to see more outdoor activities. I could not have chosen a better community for my grandma than this.

Great Place to Live

We just attended the Father's day branch in this community. Home like feeling, the people are great. We met with the directors serving food to the residents, very approachable seemed like a fun group. The building itself is old from the exterior but nicely done on the inside. Our aging parents feel right at home here. The staff are super friendly, easy to approach and very welcoming. Our family would definitely recommend this community to others looking for a home like environment to retire.

Rosewood Gardens

My mom has lived at Watermark at Rosewood Gardens for two years and the care she receives is exceptional. She lives in Memory Care and the nayas are always very friendly and compassionate. They always take time to speak to my mom and show her they care. Kelly, the director, shows concern for my mom’s well-being and quality of life and she always reaches out when my mom needs something. The facility is cozy and clean and creates a great home-like atmosphere. Cynthia and Dianne are friendly and helpful. I highly recommend Rosewood Gardens.
