Personalized care

It is a relatively small facility, which we feel is a good fit for Mom. The staff are all friendly and helpful.

Has room for improvement

Administration does not like to be questioned about anything...becomes very defensive. Cleaning needs improvement. Cleaning lady for Memory Care is once weekly. Not nearly enough for that type of resident. Quality of care lacking. I believe most employees are very good but cannot always keep up with the needs of the residents. Some meals are better than others. Plates are small; therefore portions are small. Many times the meat is so tough it is very difficult to cut, especially for the elderly residents. Activities are very minimal on Memory Care. Assisted Living has a very active Activity Director whereas Memory Care activities are conducted by the unit's employees...providing there is enough staff that day. Residents of memory Care are allowed to join Assisted Living activities providing staff or personal caregivers are available. My loved one has been there less than [date removed] and his rent was just raised [fee removed] plus another [fee removed] for additional care.

I would recommend Discovery Commons to others. Overall, it is a great place.

Had a problem with one staff member. But she no longer works there. Over all the building is very clean. Some issues with my mom's room. But I believe it is because mom tells them they don't have to clean her room. (Wish they would clean her room when she is at lunch or something). Current staff is very friendly. Again I think it is because mom tells them she doesn't need help. But she needs help showering and is not getting help with that. The meals prepared for the residents are great. The activities are great. I think there is something for everyone. The price is Fair.

Never recommend

I would not recommend Discovery Commons San Pablo at all. They are short staffed, their director of nursing is incompetent, and their paging system does not work. My grandmother fell out of bed in March and nobody came to help her. My 17 year old son found her on the floor and had to get help. She was taken by ambulance to the hospital. She was on the floor so long she had pressure wounds and her kidneys failed. She died a week later. She moved to assisted living to prevent this EXACT scenario and I will feel guilty for the rest of my life that I chose Discovery Commons. I would like to add that there are some wonderful individuals who work there who truly care about the residents. But the turnover is awful. In the 6 months my grandmother lived there, all of the leadership turned over.

My mom is currently a resident at Discovery Commons San Pablo. We like the place because it is small and with mom's dementia, she can find her way around and get back to her room easily. The staff are all nice and helpful. We would recommend this facility to others.

A positive experience!

My mom really likes that the community is smaller. She was overwhelmed by some of the larger places we visited. Also the fact that everyone... staff and residents have been friendly. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to other families.

My loved one is currently a resident at Discovery Commons San Pablo and everything has been very good for her at this facility so far. The caregivers are all wonderful. Nurse [name removed] is awesome- patient, kind and hard-working. Communication with the family is decent. The move in process was easy. The meals are decent. The housekeeping is good. I would recommend Discovery Commons San Pablo to others.

Charming & Caring

My mother has lived here for 1 year. It's a small community which makes it easier for mom to get around. She has made many friends. She really enjoys the group exercises and I often catch her with the ladies playing Scrabble. We could not be happier for her. Oh and the staff here is amazing.

Tour experience

Discovery Commons was nice and homey, they had a different name when we toured and informed us they were changing management soon. So that kind of was a deciding factor, they said it would not affect residents but you never know. It is a little older, but still a lovely facility.

the closest thing to home

We really like the smaller scale of this community, it really has a homey feeling to it. We would absolutely recommend the Atria Park of San Pablo to other families.

A Great Place to Work!

It is truly a privilege and a pleasure to serve as the Sales & Marketing Director at Atria Park of San Pablo! I appreciate the culture of service, responsiveness, attentiveness, fun, and caring that is prevalent throughout the community. I love helping families and their loved ones through the transition of moving into independent living, assisted living or memory care. I also enjoy keeping connected with our residents by facilitating the Book Club and providing pet therapy with my dog “[name removed]”.

Best for my family

My mother was a resident at Atria 4 years before having to go to skilled nursing. She was loved and cared for there. The staff truly cares AND they know what they're doing. The smaller building was great for her because she didn't get turned around and confused. The interior of the building is dated, but it's clean and maintained. I had to remember who I was looking for-not me. My mom didn't need a new and modern building. She needed a safe, clean place with people who care. Atria provided that and more.

Welcoming community

Overall we are very happy with Atria Park so far and my mom is receiving great care, she loves it here. I went to a lot of facilities and this was honestly the friendliest, cleanest place. They also let me eat here on my tour and I thought the food was really good. They went out of their way and made me feel welcome. I would definitely recommend to others.

No Better Place

What a sweet place for loved ones. The staff is fantastic. They truly care. The activities person sends me pictures of my mom when I'm not able to be there. They are taking all of the precautions to keep my mom safe during the pandemic. I may not always like it but I know that she's taken care of and safe and that's what matters.
