This place is an excellent facility that specializes in the care of Chinese speaking people. It is well maintained and the staff is always ready to help. My mom lived there until she passed .

Goldencare 2 in Alameda, CA

5.0
I love Golden Care but having issue with A Place for Mom. Golden Care is great and I'm pleased, but I went on my own to the facility, not through A Place for Mom.

Mercy Retirement and Care Center in Oakland, CA

5.0
One of the reasons we selected Mercy was for its spiritual/faith program which includes daily mass. Perfect setting for my aunt. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to other families who may need a place for their loved ones
