If you have a loved one in need of memory care, please consider Silverado Berkeley Memory Care Community. It is uniquely excellent in many ways. The physical place is more like a big comfy home and not a sterile institution. The staff, including non clinicians, is highly trained and in fact people who are training to provide Memory Care often go through their training with Silverado. This place approaches the considerable challenges of providing Memory care with a humanistic approach that compliments the most contemporary scientific underpinnings informing care planning tailored for each resident. Silverado can handle residents with varied needs from the higher functioning to those primarily with nursing needs/hospice, behavioral challenges and all shades in between. Family, too, are very well cared for and involved in the community. Though my husband died before he could join Silverado, the advocacy provided by Morgan, the Silverado RN Administrator, on his behalf in dealing with the acute care hospital , went very far above and beyond expectation. I can’t say enough about her and how sad I am my husband didn’t get the chance to get there. Did I mention there are dogs, cats, birds and a bunny? There are beautiful gardens to enjoy family gatherings or quiet moments. I can’t imagine a better place for a person with memory care level of need.

The moment we first walked into Silverado Berkeley, we could feel the genuine kindness, skilled professionalism and beautiful spirit of the entire Silverado care team. Each and every day from then on, all members of the team embraced our mother warmly and respectfully and greatly supported her and our entire family during an incredibly difficult time of our lives. We will forever be grateful for their loving care.
