I'm really looking forward to working here in Assisted Living!" -

"I'm so grateful that my family was able to find me such a wonderful new home. After losing my best friend/husband I became very depressed and started having some memory loss. It was a very scary time in my life. My family started to worry and was able to convince me to give Senior Living a try. I could not be more thankful that I agreed to it with the help of my adult children. The staff here ..." - Sharon

"We chose this community for it's cleanliness and closeness to our home. The staff are very caring. My father moved into the community after he had a big fall and broke his hip and could not move back to his home. He was hesitant at first but has been doing much better now after 2 months. He has been able to move on his own after all the help from staff." - Silver

I would highly re..." - Dick

" Belmont Village Sunnyvale is a wonderful place, and I’m happy to give it a solid 4 stars! As a 54-year-old woman with a mother in their care, I can tell you firsthand how great this community is. The executive director is truly amazing - always approachable, kind, and deeply committed to the residents' well-being. It’s clear that they run a tight ship with a lot of heart. The memory care pro..." - Jill

"I recently stopped by Belmont Village to visit my aunt who recently moved there. My cousins had had a hard time finding somewhere close, affordable and that seemed like it had good care and this was one of the few places that met all three categories (though to be fair, it seems like assisted living is just expensive all over). I was so impressed with the community - it looks more like a high end..." - Isabel

"I have now lived at Coterie for three and a half years and have been extremely happy. I wrote a very positive review shortly after I moved here and this one will be even better!.

I feel cared for by our superb staff, feel engaged in our diverse activities, entertained by so many events and..." - Carlota

"We had a tour with and elderly friend two weeks ago and the staff could not have been nicer, thorough and patient explaining the facilities and what is available for the guests. We had a fabulous dining experience for lunch in the lovely dining room. Overall, the furnishings are stunning, rooms well thought out and staff is great. We have to convince a friend to move after 40 years in one house." - Linda
