Not perfect, but great staff
Staff is amazing (friendly, caring and competent), however there are never enough aides at night. Also the restaurant food is mediocre (bland and often overcooked), tho the staff there is also super kind and helpful.

Cleanliness of the facility-10! Well taken care of. Had snacks to take anytime... but no special needs diet for diabetics. Bingo, puzzles, group exercise, movies; large TV screen. Ivy includes free: 3 meals a day, Laundry service ,Vacuum room, Physical therapy/exercise room, Activities, Free WiFi, Transportation to Dr/stores. I checked other places; this is great price for an unfurnished studio. Not know what they offer to new people now. Good mixture of old people.

It's a wonderful place the staff is fantastic. It's always very welcoming as you enter the door Very clean The staff is always engaging with the residence with games or activities . As you walk down the hall, all stuff members always greet you with a smile and say hello it has a home atmosphere. Whenever you might have a problem or need help, you can count on them to be there for you.

My spouse is staying in an assisted living department. All the people I’ve interacted with have been wonderful. They are very caring and really active trying to get my wife well enough to come home. The parking is a little limited, and this is the only bad thing I have to say about the place!

Staff is very involved and has her best interests always in mind. Sachi in at level zero meaning an independent renter yet they will notice she has missed dinner and will check on her. Beautiful back yard just remodeled. Lobby is very secure with a sign in and name sticker to identify non residents. Food is actually excellent but [name removed] is Japanese and some of her desires aren't really possible from Ivy Park's cafeteria's perspective. It's really been a huge boost in [name removed]s quality of living

My loved one is currently a resident at Ivy Park at San Jose and everything has been great for her at this facility so far. She loves it! This facility was the best out of the 9 facilities that we toured in the area and it is way nicer/better and also cheaper. Ivy Park's tour was better prepared than the others and the studio apartment that they had available clinched it. When we sat down to discuss price, etc it was laid out very well and we just picked what we wanted/needed. No surprise fees.

Putting your loved one in assisted living is a really tough decision. But when it's in a place where the people genuinely care about the people they're serving, it makes it better. The caregivers at Ivy Park are lovely people. The meals are consistently good. They offer a lot of activities. It's expensive, but they do a lot for your loved one.

I toured this community and it was very quiet. I noticed that there wasn't a lot of interaction or even residents around or out and about. It was a clean facility, I just didn't get a good vibe here.

The staff is very caring and try to do the right thing for residents. The residents are very welcoming and friendly. However, they nickel and dime on services and don't live up to promises, e.g. we were told that cable was included in the rent, but after many weeks of trying to get the maintenance people to set up properly, we gave up and my dad ( a retired engineer) jerry-rigged a digital antenna so that they could get some television reception. The food is sub-par. They offer the same entrees at most meals. Quality of ingredients very poor , e.g. they use powdered eggs for scrambles. Offering of fruits and vegetables, especially in terms of variety, very limited. The grounds are well maintained, but location is isolating and shuttle use is very limited.

I toured Ivy Park at San Jose and it was a nice place. It was the furthest away from my home, so that was a negative for me. There were a lot of things I thought were good about it; but there was a glitch - which may not have been their fault. I had an appointment and they weren't able to facilitate me for at least 30 minutes, although I had arrived on time. So that sort of turned me off. It looked like a nice place, especially if its close to your home.

Ivy Park is a perfect fit for my sister, who I put there. The staff is outstanding. The only problem I have is they seem to have some turnover, and right now it's affecting their activities - but they have told us there's a fix in place with a new activities director starting this month. There's a little bit of everything when the activities are there. The apartments are a good size. From what my sister tells me, the food is awesome. She also tells people how good of a place it is during their tour!

We really like the facility and the folks that work there. We had some trouble with follow-through, so it required us to stay on top of them to make sure that we got everything we needed in a timely manner. I like the variety of activities they offer, and you could see the encouragement of the staff for the residents to participate.

We have been very happy with Ivy Park. We were leery at first and looked at many places. They really worked with us and made us feel more comfortable. She is in the early stages of dementia and after they assessed her, they felt that she was not ready for memory care. They gave us a perfect room in the very front for her. For what we were paying based on other places we think it is a really good value especially for the quality of care she gets. From the moment we walked in, all of the residents and the staff have been really welcoming. My mother is absolutely thriving here. She is able to be social and make lots of friends and doing activities. We think this was the perfect fit for her and it is a fantastic facility.
