Kokoro Assisted Living in Japantown, San Francisco, receives mixed reviews. Many appreciate its focus on Japanese culture, offering Japanese meals and activities, and its location near Japantown. The facility is described as clean, with caring staff, and is particularly praised for accommodating Japanese-speaking residents. Some families have had positive experiences, noting the supportive environment and cultural sensitivity, which have been beneficial for their loved ones. However, there are significant concerns about management and staffing. Several reviews highlight issues with understaffing, inadequate care, and poor communication from management. Some families report incidents of neglect, such as improper medication administration and lack of timely medical attention. There are also complaints about staff being unresponsive or unprofessional, and concerns about safety due to past break-ins and assaults. The executive director and management are criticized for being unresponsive and not addressing these issues effectively. While some residents and families are satisfied with the cultural offerings and community atmosphere, others are actively seeking alternative facilities due to the perceived lack of care and oversight. The facility is noted to be more suitable for residents who are relatively independent, as it may not adequately support those with severe mobility issues or advanced dementia. Overall, Kokoro's unique cultural focus is appreciated, but the management and care quality concerns are significant for many families.
