Key Review Excerpts
“The Kensington at Walnut Creek is a truly beautiful community, beginning the moment you walk into the lobby. The space feels warm and elegant, with a dining area that looks as though it was plucked straight out of Napa Valley.”
“The med tech staff was very helpful in finding out why one of their members had left a message about my mother, who is a resident. The original message had been a proactive move to let me know of an incident of mild concern.”
“Since Terrie Valentine’s arrival at Enliven, I have witnessed a noticeable change in the care unit. She has taken it upon herself to really get to know each resident and has creatively provided a wide variety of activities.”
