Hillside Senior Care

My 88 year old mother-​in-​law, Janet, has dementia and was cared for at home by family for three years. It became too much and she briefly went into a board and care home where she sustained a foot lesion. In January, Janet went into Hillside Senior Care for rehabilitation, where she has remained. We have the highest praise for this facility. It is clean, bright and welcoming. Janet has received excellent care and her foot lesion is almost healed. The staff is astoundingly kind and caring, and they seem happy to be at Hillside. I don’t want to start naming people because I wouldn’t want to leave anyone out. At lunch I’ve observed staff members patiently feed entire meals to people who cannot feed themselves.

I highly recommend Hillside Senior Care. The staff are friendly and caring… like a family!
The gardens and hillside setting make this a unique community.

My father at his 90’s contracted pneumonia. After the initial hospitalization, he was placed in Hillsides Senior Home Care for rehabilitation. We were so lucky to find this place. Hillside Senior Care is clean and bright. All the administrators, nurses, social workers, physical therapists and care takers are friendly and helpful. Whenever we called (or turned on the light), the nursing staff responded quickly and take care of the need promptly. During the diner time, I observed the care takers patiently feed the patients in need and skillfully maneuver among unreasonably demanding patients. Due to my father’s old age, the physical therapists adjusted the exercise routine and intensity accordingly. The social workers were always in touch with us and showed great care and concern, and offered great help in obtaining home care before his discharge. I was so grateful to the staff of Hillside Senior Care for my father’s speedy recovery.

My father, Cyril, was admitted into Hillside Senior Care three weeks ago. We were skeptical and fearful because we were not familiar with Hillside and these were strangers. It was not comfortable for any of us to leave my father with people that we did not know. Within hours our fears began to melt away. The staff at Hillside proved to be caring, dedicated and provided the best possible care for our father and they did so with dignity and patience. I would like to commend a few of the staff individually. Although I must point out… everyone at this facility are dedicated to giving their patients the highest quality of care and service. We found the following people exceptional in their fields… the physical therapists, Henry, John and Rutuja are amazing and worked successfully with my father to regain some of his mobility. Baljit went above and beyond to assist us in every way possible. I loved walking through the doors and seeing her smile and warm greeting. Jennifer, Eva, Francesca, Pavan, Singh and Mildred were always committed to providing expert care to all their patients, not only my dad. I was there every day at all hours of the day. So I can truly say, I witnessed a constant high standard of care in addition to a friendly, genuine and caring staff. There is one young lady who did rise to the top (as far as my parents were concerned) They both adored Karla. Karla took such good care of my father. Gave him a good clean shave too when he needed it. I told her she should have been a barber. :-) And Ruby, Hillside is fortunate to have such a wonderful person in their social services department. She is one of the most patient and porfessional people at Hillside always willing to assist the patients and their families.
Stephanie Bilboa from Kaiser Permanente worked hand in hand with Hillside to facilitate the care and the transition from Hillside to home care at my parents home in Livermore. Stephanie far exceeded our expectations in all that she did to assist us in these activities. We will never forget her and all that she did.
Hillside Senior Care… excellence in service and a warm, loving environment. Thank you, Linda, for leading your staff by example and taking such good care of our cherished loved ones.
