I am so thankful for having chosen The Ivy At Golden Gate for my aunt. From the moment I arrived, the staff were welcoming and accommodating, and [name redacted] was especially helpful in making the transition as smooth as possible. The facilities are pristine and provide a variety of amenities, including an elegant dining room, recreational activities, and hospice care. [name redacted] is like family and all the staff exude warmth and kindness towards the residents. I can honestly say that I could not have made a better decision for my aunt's care.
