Assisted Living Community in San Francisco County, California

I wasn't that impressed with The Village at Hayes Valley. The people were nice though. I went to both assisted living and memory care facilities. The main facility was pretty nice and airy, but I only went into the atrium and up to the administrator's office. I didn't get to go around and see where the people live. Across the street was the memory care, which was a really cute Victorian from the outside, but it was a little rough on the inside. The people were nice, but it had a rundown feeling to me. Where my father had been was up to $10,000 a month, and the memory care facility at this place was even more than that. The rundown-ness of the place didn't justify the price. One of the buildings was a lot nicer, looked a lot newer and cleaner, and didn't have that funky or that diaper smell. They had basic activities like bingo, and the memory care residents were engaged in a game or playing music in the kitchen area.

The Village at Hayes Valley was very average. They were very limited in their amenities. Most of the rooms were shared. It was a nice location. It's central city and a good neighborhood.

We got Honor for my mother because of their price and how they're easy to get started with. It's all app-driven and easy to manage. I get reports on my phone on each shift. They do light cleaning, cook, and assist mom in personal care. We are working on getting a team, and the caregivers are all wonderful. I would recommend that their care manager come and do a home visit to see how things are going.

I'm using Honor In Home Senior Care for my mother. They have caregivers who come into the house. My mother doesn't really need that much but my main thing was companionship because she has dementia. She could do a lot of things, but she needs companionship and a little bit of direction. I'm extremely happy with Honor In Home Senior Care. They are very good; I'm very satisfied with them.

We used Honor in Home Senior Care before for my husband. The service was for companionship when I was out. There were too many of them, they sent a different caregiver every time, and it just wasn't working. They had to have more than three days' notice to have anybody come out.

Our tour at AlmaVia of San Francisco was good, but we wanted to put my mom in a place that is more agreeable with her personality. She likes being active and engaged with people; however, it didn't look like there was a lot of communication with the other clientele. They had a lot of art and craft activities, television, and music. The staff was very pleasant and engaging. From what I saw, I didn't see any problem with the food. Everything seemed to be fresh, and the dining hall was very clean.

Overall, Honor In Home Senior Care San Francisco was fine. Ee were very pleased with them. They did everything from helping my father-in-law shower to helping him with his physical therapy exercises to getting him around using a strap making sure he had his balance. They also helped a little bit with meal prep and laundry. They were really good with whatever they were asked to do. The one thing we really liked about them was that each of their caregivers will type up notes at the end of every shift about what they did, how it went, and the pain level. We could give them all of our email addresses and all of the family members get those same notes. That was a very nice feature of the company. They were able to give us more hours right away when we needed it and were willing to change caregivers if there was one that my in-laws didn’t care for. They were very accommodating.

We've been getting help from Honor for about a month now. They assist with getting out of bed, toileting, delivering meals, and very light housekeeping. Their scheduling is really good. I like that every caregiver who comes looks at the specialized notes of other caregivers, which helps direct them. I think they're doing a good job.

Providence Place is a converted home and was three or four stories. They seemed so cluttered and kind of stuffy. You don't have your own room or shower. You have to share it. The staff seemed nice.
