Ivy Park has been great for my mom

My mom moved to Ivy Park a couple of months ago and so far, we've had a wonderful experience. The staff have been very kind, caring, and responsive. The facilities are very nice and well maintained. The dining is also nice, with good selection and good quality food. And the activities are also great.

Review for Ivy Park at Palo Alto

The food is good and the overall environment is warm, friendly and clean. The rooms are on the small side though bathrooms are spacious. There are a variety of activities including an excellent chair exercise class and a beautiful backyard. The response time is sometimes up to 20-30 min after a resident presses the call button. Communication between the nursing director, med techs and caregivers is sometimes lacking. It can be hard to get extra care in a timely fashion when special needs arise.

Had a great tour of Ivy Park with [name removed]. The residence is newly remodeled and showed very well. The residents were welcoming and seemed happy to be there. There are lots of activities each day. I loved all the natural light in the dining room and each apartment has a good amount of light, too. The staff I met were professional and caring.

Review for Ivy Park at Palo Alto

I would say their communication could be more organized. I would have liked a step by step outline of the process. There was some miscommunication in the beginning and we lost an apartment that we liked and I could have used a more step by step for the move in and drop off. They are all very kind and professional. The folks at the front desk are kind. Kyleigh the medical director is amazing.

Our experience

The food is very bland, however the atmosphere was very pleasant with spaces to meet visitors in the back garden and the balcony garden of the locked ward. The outings were looked forward to. The staff were cheerful and very helpful.

Great care!

I help my friend find a great assisted living in Palo Alto and Ivy Park is the best! My friend moved in a couple months ago and has been enjoying the activities and great food. She has made several friends and is living her best life! I couldn't ask for more. Great staff and great location!

Review for Ivy Park at Palo Alto

They were fast and efficient administratively. They did not actively integrate my loved one into programs and activities which meant she stayed in her room a lot.

Absolutely Horrible

If I could give them Zero stars I would. For the amount of money they are paid to provide care for my Mother In Law finding that she was sleeping in her urine-soaked bed and had been for so long that the mattress was stained all the way through was horrifying! Then having the staff just casually mention "oh she's been doing this for a while" like it was no big deal blew my mind since no one mentioned it to us. We started looking for another place immediately after that. She also complained that her feet hurt and when we checked them it looked like she had not had her nails trimmed for many months! Some were pointing straight up! How this was not noticed during her assisted showers (when she actually got them) and brought to our attention is beyond belief. All of her clothes were dirty and stained event though we paid extra to have her laundry done. Place looks nice BUT the staff doesn't take care of the tenants as they need too.

We took a tour of Ivy Park at Palo Alto during our search for a facility for our loved one. This facility was okay. The cleanliness and friendliness was okay. However, I never felt a warmth from the facility or during the tour. We decided to keep searching.

Review for Sunrise of Palo Alto

We picked this community, because my aunt knew people who lived thereThe facility is very nice as are the services. Interactions with the team is somewhat challenging as there's no single point of contact. I would recommend to other families.

Sunrise does not pay its debts

My wife resided at Sunrise of Palo Alto until her death on [date removed]. The Palo Alto Sunrise agrees that it owes me a refund of $1,173.12 for the fees covering the period after her death. I have been trying to get the refund since [date removed] with emails, letters, and telephone calls, but have received nothing so far, and no explanation for the failure to pay!

Friendly, Helpful Staff

From the looks of our visits, my mom is experiencing a good, new lifestyle. She has made the transition just fine. We are getting the doctor set up and I am familiar with the staff. They are great workers and I think the facility is great too. The manager, staff, nurses, are all very nice, all kind and all helpful. She has a private room with a nice patio to sit out on in. We are please with selecting this community for my mom .

Positive atmosphere!!

I have been very pleased with my grandmothers transition into this community. [Removed] and [Removed] where very helpful with the move in process and made sure we got settled okay. I like that it is a smaller facility and she has really seemed to make some friends while she has been there. They have great activities and even have a beauty care team to make it so my grandma does not have to leave to get her hair or podiatry done. Overall I am very happy with the quality of care my grandmother has been receiving.

Make sure you understand what care level you are going to be getting. There's a level of unresponsiveness with some of their departments. I think the community is very, very cool. I love it! The responsiveness is the biggest concern.

not quite clear about how all the medical stuff works

We have no issues with Sunrise of Palo Alto. The only thing I would mention is we are not quite clear about how all the medical stuff works. We transferred him from one system to another so there has been some confusion. We got all of that resolved already though. Other than that it has been a really good experience at this facility.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know California’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about California’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
