Outstanding care and service
Communication with the family about schedules, medication, etc has been great. Staff members are caring and kind. I would recommend them to others who are searching for care for their loved one.

Conveniently located northwest of San Jose, California, is the sunny, lively city of Santa Clara, home to Pacific Gardens. Our assisted living and memory support community is nestled in a quiet neighborhood south of the hustle and bustle of Santa Clara. As the entertainment capital of Silicon Valley, there’s plenty to do and see in our little piece of The Golden State.
Surrounded by beautiful flowers and palm trees, the path to Pacific Gardens is colorful and welcoming. Our spacious sunroom overlooks the entrance, just above the awning, and the exterior facing windows allow natural light to fill every room with its welcoming warmth. When you’re here, you’ll feel right at home.
Helping residents maintain their health and wellness through our thoughtful collection of activities and amenities is our top priority. Professional staff is available around the clock to offer the assistance necessary to bring residents the care and comfort they need.

Everyone on the staff has been incredibly kind, patient and helpful with the onboarding process and they are kind to my grandmother as well. The room is large and well-equipped, an excellent value for the price compared to similar places in the area

Very friendly and caring staff, responsive when questions arose, studio apartment was kept clean (I think it was around 400 sqft), nice activities like bingo/movie nights/gym.

I would give them a 5 out of 5. The staff is caring, supportive, kind and thorough. They make sure her needs are met and the staff goes all they can to not only care for the residents but that they are also heard and nurtured.

My grandma is in the memory unit and the staff in the memory unit are amazing. They are kind, caring and interactive with the people staying with them. They are very aware of the wants and needs of the patients. They are accommodating to the family of the people there and its easy to contact them to communicate. Yes, we would recommend Pacific Gardens to other families based on the experience.

The facility is more homey than some of the more modern facilities and my dad appreciated that environment. The front desk staff was very friendly. The nursing staff was also very caring and easy to contact and kept me well informed. My dad was able to stay there under hospice care and the Pacific Gardens staff coordinated well with the hospice staff. My dad said he felt like the staff really cared about him. We were very happy with his time there.

We have been very pleased with the decision to move mom into Pacific Gardens Memory Care. Starting with the welcome card at the front door on the first day, to the greetings from everyone we see every time we’re there, it is clear the people there truly care. The hands on caregivers are extremely patient and I am confident in my mom’s safety and enrichment.

It's a " smaller" facility where everyone knows each other. Everyone calls my mom by name, and engages with her in passing . Covid protocols in place and well monitored. They are very responsive to family / support personnel. I would recommend Pacific Gardens to others looking.

One year later, I am absolutely convinced I made the correct decision. PG exudes a welcoming and friendly vibe, which I immediately noticed when I first stepped foot in the place. My mother is very happy there. Any issues were dealt with in an appropriate and caring manner ( a time when she wasn't getting her mail; her call button disappeared from a tray at the front desk; her doctor put her on a pureed diet). The executive director, a computer wiz, even came up and fixed her printer after all of us were stumped. Their motto, "it feels like home", rings true every day.

I can't recommend Pacific Gardens highly enough! I think this is an outstanding facility with caring staff and caregivers. I just recommended it to a friend who is checking it out today. I would definitely recommend this facility to others.

The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They have a genuine interest in the health and wellbeing of residents. I think the facility is showing its age and needs some updates I would say they just need to do more activities. I go there about 2x a month and most of the time residents in the memory care unit are just sitting watching TV.

I would definitely recommend this place. Staff is extremely friendly and everyone seems to know my dad (staff and residents). They have daily activities and weekly lunch outings. We see my dad every week, so we have gotten to know the staff. Food is good and healthy. Holiday buffets are prepared by a chef, and families are included. Again, this is a great place for the elderly.

Pacifica Gardens is a tad more expensive that we would live, but available, excellent quality of care works for us. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to other families.

The staff at Pacific Gardens is very friendly and welcoming, and if you pass anyone in the hall ( staff or residents) they smile and say hello. The food is excellent and they offer many alternate choices. My mom loves their soups that are always served with lunch and dinner. She frequently brings a wrapped dessert back to her room to save for my daily visit (must still think I'm a little kid). The Activity Directors have gone out of their way to find out what interests Mom, especially when she told them she was bored by Bingo. The game of Rummikub is more appealing to her. Pacific Gardens had a BBQ and invited the residents' families, I was impressed by its organization. I wondered where we would all sit? No worries- each resident had a reserved table and Mom and I invited a single to join us and share gossip about the place. The food was superb. I love how they decorate for holidays and I already have an idea for Mom's costume for Halloween. I would recommend Pacific Gardens to others!

The staff is extremely friendly and everyone says hi to my dad. The facility is very clean and they try to have lots of entertainment. Pacific Gardens saved us over $[removed]a month, which helped with my dad's finances. I really do love this facility and the staff. I would strongly recommend this facility to anyone looking for a safe and healthy place for their loved ones.

Moving my dad to Pacific Gardens was the best thing I could have ever done for him! The entire staff, administrative and medical, are outstanding and very caring! When my dad presses the button on the pendent he wears, his caregiver/nurse comes to see what he needs. It gives me a lot of comfort and peace of mind to know he is getting this kind of “around the clock” care! The meals offered to residents are OUTSTANDING and unbelievably DELICIOUS!! There is a lot of variety and they are nutritious. If my dad doesn’t want or like what is being served, there is an alternate menu for him to choose something else. My dad is a WWII Veteran who earned a Purple Heart when his plane was shot down. There is a Veterans Wall where veteran residents can have their picture hung on the wall as a tribute to them and to all veterans. If you are looking for a GREAT place to move a loved one to, you won’t regret checking it out. I HIGHLY recommend it!!!

This is a nice community and well run. The staff seem very knowledgeable. They are easy to speak with the staff if there are questions or concerns about my loved one. Card playing, bingo, theater, exercise classes, gym, celebrations, and more are some of the activities offered to the residents. The food has been okay for my loved one. There are some meals that are better than others.

We have been very happy with Pacific Gardens and mom is doing well and receiving great care. I see wonderful activities going on, but she is not able to participate. It is a smaller facility so the care is very personalized. The staff are very thoughtful and considerate. they know all the residents and the family personally. We can go at all hours since we work different schedule and they are very flexible with us. I would absolutely recommend them to others looking. We have also had others we knew who had loved ones here and had great experiences as well.

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.
