The staff here are responsive for the most part and they do their best. This is definitely a very clean and professional environment. My mom had been treated well, but it has come with lots of advocacy on her behalf. This is true for any healthcare system. Thank you, Piedmont Gardens.

My mom spent a few months at Piedmont Gardens this spring as she was recovering from an accident. We found the staff, from medical to administrative professionals, to be caring, kind and helpful. My mom improved so much under their care! The facility is clean, bright and welcoming. I would not hesitate to recommend Piedmont Gardens!

This is a world class facility with excellent staff and services. My Dad has lived here for years and been in the Skilled Nursing unit as well. Highly recommend!

The single best thing about Piedmont Gardens is the people who live and work here. No question: what makes Piedmont Gardens such a great place to live is our fellow residents and our staff, who we call our team. The location in a vibrant urban neighborhood comes in second on the virtue scale--so much, so close. Third is the physical space, indoors and outdoors, and that is getting better all the time. Life is good!!!

Piedmont Gardens is a safe, comfortable, convenient, friendly place for seniors to live.
April 2025
The staff are very helpful in giving direction when needed. The residents are friendly and willing to help any new folks. There are many activities to keep our minds and bodies active.
February 2025
Having spent 12 nights in Skilled Nursing in December 2024, I would like to thank and commend all the staff who work there: nurses, CNAs, cleaning staff, activities staff, dining staff, case managers, physical and occupational therapists, and anyone else I may have forgotten to list. Everyone was professional, patient with patients, kind, and helpful as they went about their duties. My stay enabled me to gain back some strength and mobility after hip replacement surgery, so that I could climb up the 20 steps leading to my front door. The dining choices were a welcome change from hospital fare, with fresh vegetables and fruit always available.
November 2024
I would like the elevator to be in working order for the residents who live in a building 15 stories tall. My Mom likes the services safety and building, but needs to allow 10 extra minutes due to elevator availability.
November 2024
I have lived here 6 years. Piedmont Gardens is a thriving community of interesting people who share active lives in an attractive urban East Bay setting. I chose well when I chose Piedmont Gardens Here the staff is the key to how well we live.
July 2024
I’ve had the opportunity to visit several facilities over the the past year and I can say, without hesitation, thi s community is hands down the best I’ve come across. I have to drop a couple of names befor leaving. Georgia, in admissions(or similar) is a saint. Kenyada was equally outstanding.
May 2024
Piedmont Gardens is a welcoming, friendly community of interesting people from around the world and next door. The apartments are spacious and full of light, with nice views. The food is tasty, with multiple choices at each meal, and the servings are generous! A resident here can choose to be involved (or uninvolved) in the many and varied activities that are offered. There are opportunities to share interests and use skills. The musical programs are of high quality and a pleasing variety. The location is delightfully close to good shopping, interesting restaurants, and a multi-screen movie theater. We're glad we chose to move here from Oakland's Rockridge neighborhood five years ago.
May 2024
Piedmont Gardens is a treasure. The management makes every effort to provide a safe, convenient, enriching and respectful experience for us. Our fellow residents share their talents, experience and willingness to help. I feel so fortunate to be able to live here. I can’t think of a better place to grow old.

My mother was a resident of Piedmont Gardens. She was not the easiest resident and at times had difficult dietary needs. Rachel and Simon from the Dietary department provided excellent care for my mother's, sometimes difficult, dietary requirements. They also were diligent and provided the family with constant updates concerning her condition and ensured her weight remained constant. Piedmont Gardens had regular video family meetings with representatives of all departments to review my mother's condition so the family was kept informed during limited visits due to COVID visitation restrictions. My mother was very well cared for and I highly recommend Piedmont Gardens to anyone who asks for recommendations for senior care.

Our family was blessed to be referred to Piedmont Garden in 2019, our father needed a skilled nursing facility for rehabilitation services. Piedmont Gardens was the first place we contacted when our mother recently required rehabilitation services. Administration was professional and personal. Both of our parents have received excellent care here!
May 2023
It combines high quality care and operations with a stimulating community and opportunities for new horizons.
May 2023
Piedmont Gardens is a community of caring, interesting residents and responsive staff, who clearly want to provide outstanding service to our residents. Piedmont Gardens’ top management sets the tone for high expectations, and the staff steps up to meet them. With all levels of care being offered, we don’t have to worry about relocating in the future (and skilled nursing is always available for post-hospital rehab care). And being around the corner from Piedmont Ave is wonderful, whether you want something to eat”the choices, oh my”or see a film or just walk along the avenue. (Plus, the location couldn’t be more convenient for Kaiser members.)

Piedmont Gardens is a superb retirement community, with wonderful, educated, active residents, a compassionate, caring, excellent and respectful staff, a very open and communicative administration who generally have a finely tuned customer service attitude, in an exciting neighborhood with great restaurants, interesting shops, book stores and wine shops. I could not be happier about my choice to live here.
May 2023
Thanks to the residents as well as the staff I am more active here than ever before outside my profession. The care, the activities, our terrific neighborhood are beyond my expectations.
April 2023
I was very happily surprised when I accompanied my friend to visit a resident here. From the outside, I was like uh oh, but from the minute you walk in, it's clean and looks very nice. The security at the front desk is strict (great!). The rooms are a good size and there seem to be a lot of activities. Overall, I was very impressed. It wasn't the depressing scene I anticipated. Quite the opposite!
October 2022
My 87-year-old mother has lived at Piedmont Gardens for over 6 years, initially in assisted living and now in the skilled nursing unit. We have been extremely satisfied with the genuine and skilled care, the variety/quality of activities, and the warm, respectful, resident-centered community.
October 2022
We have felt welcomed from the beginning. Staff, fellow residents and programs have been all we have hoped them to be. We recommend Piedmont Gardens without reservation.

Piedmont Gardens has been an excellent choice for us because of the welcoming, interesting and active residents and because of the dedicated, well-trained and upbeat staff. We love our freshly renovated apartment, the walking distance proximity to great restaurants, shops and almost all the commercial and retail services we will ever need.

Since this is a challenging time of life, with changing personal capabilities, many personal questions were hard to answer. Piedmont Gardens provides for personal satisfactions as well as an out-of-family-and-away-from-familiar-friends can be expected to do--and creates opportunities to develop new friendships.

Lovely place for retirement

Piedmont Gardens is exceptional in every way. I experienced its skilled nursing for three weeks after a knee replacement surgery. It is spotlessly clean and exceptionally well managed. The Nurses, CNA’s and other staff are immediately responsive, cheerful and able” as are the fine physical and occupational therapists. The rooms are large and each has a separate TV with earphones. Each room has large windows looking out on greenery. There is a roof terrace garden. AND The food is fresh, varied and delicious. A wonderful place to rehab and heal. Highly recommended.
July 2018
UPDATE 2018-07-28: After being contacted by Kevin and discussing our complaints, efforts were taken by higher ups to help rectify the situation and amendments were made. We were also contacted by Daniel, one of the executive directors at Piedmont Gardens. Using a translator, Daniel conversed with, and was very attentive to, my mother-in-law's complaints, and he took the situation very seriously. He took extra actions that we very much appreciated as a means to makeup for the mishandling of her earlier treatment. Thank you, Daniel and Kevin, for taking our situation seriously and working to improve it. We hope that Daniel and Kevin will continue to improve the care of their patients and to put in place measures that will prevent such occurrences from the future. ORIGINAL Review: Highly discriminatory staff with poor training. Mother in law only speaks Cantonese and Mandarin and is recovering from an invasive surgery where she is in a neck brace for at least 3 months and needs to relearn to walk. Discrimination and racism from staff includes (as witnessed and confirmed by her roommate who understands her limited English): - Saying "no" to requests for a spoon to eat yogurt. Seriously, how else do you eat it... - Saying "no" to requests for soy milk in the morning, and responding to "the kitchen's closed" when it is not. - When her toothbrush fell on the ground, one of the nurses told her to pick it up herself and did not help her. This was confirmed by the nurse educator (the one who manages the nursing staff) and a staff member did admit this. Kudos for integrity, at least... - My spouse, who speaks English.. asked the staff to provide a new clean gown and to change her bed sheets. Nurse said they would, but they did not. Her mom has been getting rashes/bug bites and they DON'T change the sheets until then. - They woke her up at 5AM to feed her pain medicine when she is sound asleep. - The don't have a translator on site when the surgery and long term care was scheduled months in advance. I'm wondering if a lawyer will read this and if we can file a lawsuit... This is America, after all.... I'm sure there will be more incidents, but what a pity.

Wonderful staff makes a world of difference! Minus one star for the aged facility but the folks that run this skilled nursing and senior residence more than make up for it.

I cannot reach my friend by phone, not by being transferred when I called and they would not even take my name or number to tell her to call me. So if you go there your friends outside cannot reach you. I was told I could visit. I am in Denver!

Time to update my review: My parents have lived at Piedmont Gardens for almost 5 years, and they are very happy there. Depending on which part of the facility (i.e. independent living, assisted living, or skilled nursing) you live, it has its pluses and minuses. The independent living facility is very nice and ideally located right off of Piedmont Ave. The residents there are an interesting group of people with varied life experiences, and the available selection of daily activities is excellent. Piedmont Gardens is owned by ABHOW, which presents itself as a non-profit organization, but in some ways seems to function more like a corporate real estate organization. That said, there are many good and caring employees. ABHOW is pretty good at managing the facility, but sometimes seem to be as focused on the budget as the well-being of the residents.The primary downside to Piedmont Gardens for the independent living residents is the quality of the food, which is fair and instituional, more akin to the food you were served in school than that of a quality dining establishment or home cooked meal. (The service crew in the dining room, though are really very good.) Under a new Executive Director, Kevin Smith, some improvements have been recently made. I think most residents would say there has been a slight improvement in the food in the last year or so, but the trend is slow and there is still a long way to go. My parents report he is sincere about taking care of both the residents and his staff. A few years ago, residents asked for ABHOW to hire a social worker to address the needs of the many in the community who are in transition (death of spouses, changes in health, and other issues of aging). Initially the former management declined to do so, even though about 50% of competing facilities use the services of a licensed social worker. Happily, when the former chaplain retired, he was replaced by someone with bona fide social work credentials. This was a smart move. This next part is only hearsay, but I am more than a little dismayed about the reports I have heard from people with parents in the assisted living, memory and skilled nursing areas. Some people feel they are understaffed, under qualified, undertrained and under budgeted. They complain there has been a lukewarm commitment to providing excellent care and service in these areas. I have heard these reports a enough times to worry that there may really be some fundamental problems and I hope my parents can remain in their Independent Living apartment for as long as possible. It's been about a year since Mr. Smith, who seems to be well intentioned, was hired. I am anxious to see if he is able to correct the problems in the dining, assisted living and nursing areas.

My parents, retired professors from the University of Chicago have been living at Piedmont Gardens for the last two years. They and we (their children) love the intellectually stimulating activities for them: discussion groups, movies with discussion, fitness groups, and physical therapy. Mom and Dad especially like dinner in the dining hall with their lively co-residents who also have retired from significant and interesting professions.

I would echo Bruce Kaplan's sentiments. My aunt is in the assisted living section. What that means is the section where she is charged more for less in that she is now in a single bedroom, much like a hotel, with no shower because she is taken down the hall to be bathed, and is charged extra. I wouldn't eat the food they serve and I did not like the look of the kitchen when I had to go down there to look for some creamer when making my aunt a coffee. She is billed for every service, isolated in the Assisted Living unit when I would think that a better option might be to mix residents up so that the more able might form friendships with the less able and actually assist them out of friendship and kindness ( but that might impact profits ). It is the Motel 8 at Ritz Carlton prices. I have been trying to convince my aunt to make a change but it's hard work. She enjoys a cup of tea in the evening and they say they will bring her one if she asks. She shouldn't have to ask. At the money she is paying she should be drowning in tea. I was asked to buy her Folic Acid over the weekend because they won't provide that. She is paying $7k a month and they can't stretch to a $4 bottle of vitamins. The staff appear sparse, subdued, downtrodden. There is a price to be paid when staff are underpaid and barely motivated. There are activities, quite a lot of them and they look quite promising. My aunt has memory issues and needs support in getting to these activities ( especially the musical ones ). I am not aware that she gets that kind of support. I am making a point now of getting a schedule and calling her when activities are about to begin. The location is great for those who are still fully mobile but I would recommend a move for any senior beginning to lose mobility or cognitive function. What is truly awful is the lack of visitor parking. How could they set out to build a facility in this location and not provide adequate parking. You can pull up and sit at the door while you fetch down your resident but that is not good enough. It makes a "quick visit" all but impossible.
