Pleasanton Senior Care Villa

Pleasanton Senior Care Villa is the third board and care home my 100 year old mother has lived in. She moved into this facility in 2022 after the home she resided in closed. In my experience, this facility is the most efficiently run home of the three. One of the most impressive things about this care home is the extremely low turnover in caregivers. It is a testament to the ownership, Cristina, and the relationship that she shares with her employees. Another important feature is the cleanliness. I can tell you many of these places are not well kept, PSCV is. With my mother's advancing age, she has times where she becomes confused and accusatory. The caregivers have maintained their kindness, which I sincerely appreciate. The majority of the time, there are two caregivers present, which is not the case in other facilities. Caring for our loved ones can be a difficult journey, Cristina and her team have been very helpful along the way.

My mother went to live at Pleasanton Senior Care Villa in February 2022. The owner/ administrator Cristina Nica is the kindest most awesome person I ever met. She treats all of her residents like her family because to her they are. Her care staff is very attentive and interactive with the residents. This is the place that anyone would want their loved one to live. Cristina is very hands on and involved. My mother was recently in the hospital for a week and Cristina was there as much as I was being my mother's advocate. Because of her extensive medical background she is able to communicate with doctors in a way I never could. The residents interact with each other and they have all their meals together. My mother has made new friends there and they all care about each other. The house was recently remodeled and is beautiful. There is a deck outside with trees and flowers and plants where the residents can be outside. I am very grateful to Cristina and her staff for the loving care of my mother. It is a very difficult decision to put an elderly loved one in a care home when you are not able to care for them yourself. I highly recommend Pleasanton Senior Care Villa.

I would like to give my highest recommendation to Pleasanton Senior Care Villa. My mother lived there for five years, during which time she enjoyed the sort of love and close attention that we felt we could only expect from a loving family member. The genuine love, care, concern, and skilled help was far beyond what we could have remotely anticipated. Mom's eyes lit up every time a caregiver came into the room. The caregivers hugged and kissed mom, told her they loved her, and cared for her like one of their own. It made us feel so much more comfortable to know that the owner of the facility, Cristina Nica, was a licensed nurse in Romania, and even went beyond that to study medicine for two years. My brothers and I felt we had the best of all worlds: loving, personal and combined with the sort of sensibilities one gains from having studied nursing and medicine. Their understanding of what created a homelike atmosphere was an enormous plus, considering my mom was in her own apartment until age 94 and needed a space that felt like home. My younger brother and I both worked with Cristina, the owner, and the staff, to help personalize the experience to the specific needs of my mom and to give her the highest quality of life during her precious golden years. It was a comfort to learn that the facility is also licensed for hospice and could provide wonderful continuity all the way through my mom's life to the end, as was the case. I can't imagine a better experience than the one my mother and my family enjoyed during her stay at Pleasanton Senior Care Villa.

I moved my mom here in April, 2022 and she has been happy and well taken care of from day 1. The caregivers are loving and thoughtful, going above and beyond to make my mom and the other residents feel safe. The home is clean, food is good, and there is joy in the home. I am so thankful to have found Pleasanton Senior Villa for my 87 year old mom. She is thriving despite limited mobility because she feels safe and loved.

I began looking for a place for Mom in 2012 when I could no longer care for her in my home. I was so happy to find such a loving home with the best care possible. Mom is happy and loves her care givers. This is a home in a neighborhood with 6 residents and two full time caregivers. Cristina the most kind and caring Administrator who is always on top of the care and completely involved. Mom has to go out to dialysis 3 times per week and with the protocols in place the home has remained Covid free!!

I highly recommend this senior care facility. 5 stars in my book. My 94 year old father has been cared for here for the past almost 4 years. He has been cared for wonderfully. Prior to being cared for here, he was at a large independent living facility which he found impersonal and intimidating. This facility is intimate (6 residents) with two caretakers who have been great and a wonderful owner who is considerate, caring and very competent. This facility has been a godsend for my father and I recommend it highly.

My mother in law Mary lived here for 2 1-2 years before her passing. The care that Cristina Nica and her care givers provided to Mary was beautiful. Mary was treated with love, kindness respect, and dignity. We came to know Cristina and her caretakers on a personal level. They are all so kind and giving. The care they provide comes from their selfless effort to do everything possible to make their residents feel loved, safe and that they are home.

Our grandma stayed her last three years here. The care she received was second to none. We love Cristina and staff. It is a home, so it feels like home. At a certain point, sometimes the family cant care for our elderly members, which brings about a large sense of guilt. We are so grateful that we found this place. It was the best decision for all of us and we are so happy with the love and care she received.

Our mother was at Pleasanton Senior Care Villa for over 3 years. The caregivers were kind and patient and treated our mother like family. They were flexible in changes to level of care our mother required. When she first moved to the home she was quite independent and at the end she was on hospice and needed a higher level of care. The owner Cristina was very involved, present several days a week and assisted with care on a regular basis. My mom came to love Cristina and the caregivers as if they were family. We will be forever grateful to them for how they cared for our mother during her last few years.
