Community Insights
This detailed information was obtained directly from the Marketing Director at Palo Alto Commons via email on March 15, 2024.
Waitlist
Depending on what type of apartment you are seeking, some are waitlisted, and some are available. That said, we are a very high occupancy community, so it’s good you are investigating before the need is urgent.
Pricing
I have attached our brochure for your review.
Staffing
We have a very high staff to resident ratio in our community and always have nursing staff on site.
Safety Measures
We keep in very close contact with our residents, even if they are independent, if they don’t come to the dining room for a meal, we call and have staff check on them. Each resident is given a personal help button and when they push it, it rings the concierge and staff attends to their needs quickly.
Community Transition
We have a schedule for each of our team of directors to spend time with new residents and make them feel welcome. We can also pair them with someone in the community who can introduce them and show them around. We are a very friendly community.
Transportation
We do have transportation. We can take residents to MD appts, church, shopping etc. Our van goes South a couple days per week and North a couple days per week. We also have scheduled outings to parks, museums etc.
Dining
We have menu dining with daily specials and standard items that are always available. Three meals per day and snacks are included in the rent. Our chefs take great pride in their craft.
Complaints
