PositiveAmazing team in memory care.
The memory care team, lead by [Name Removed], at the Almaden Watermark are amazing. [Nsme removed] and her staff were compassionate and engaged with my mom and all of the residents, as well as with family members.

PositiveExcellent place for dad
The Watermark at Almaden has been a great facility for my dad. He’s been there about a year and a half and really likes it. The staff is always very friendly and helpful.

PositiveI am/was a resident of this facility
I am a resident. It's very nice. I'm in a studio, and it's pretty good and big. It's very clean. The staff is very nice. People are caring, and they're decent, friendly, and warm. There are many different kinds of activities, games, bingo, yoga, and quite a number of other things. The dining area is very neat, clean, and it's nice. The food and the service are good.
