    Review

    Lakeshore Residential Care in Oakland has received a mix of reviews from individuals who have had personal experiences with the facility. One visitor described it as a highly reputed facility, while another warned against sending loved ones there. The latter individual's husband has dementia and was looking for a place with memory care. However, upon touring Lakeshore, they found that it smelled bad and the rooms were smaller than expected. They also observed that the elderly residents were not receiving proper care or attention, indicating a lack of compassion from the staff. In addition, they mentioned that the food options were limited and unappetizing.

    Another review highlighted the lack of customer service at Lakeshore Residential Care. According to this individual, they made multiple calls over a two-week period but received no response or call back from the facility regarding admission for their friend. This lack of communication left them with a negative impression of the professionalism of the staff and raised doubts about their ability to adequately care for elderly residents.

    On a positive note, one reviewer expressed gratitude for the positive changes that Lakeshore Residential Care had made in their friend's life. They noted that the facility was clean and there was always delicious food being cooked on-site. The staff appeared busy with cleaning and providing care to residents, while the owners were described as kind, responsive, and understanding.

    Another reviewer shared their experience of their mother staying at Lakeshore Residential Care for two weeks. While acknowledging that it was beyond their budget, they praised the nicer room accommodations and ample staffing levels. They appreciated that their mother had more independence and socialization opportunities at Lakeshore compared to her previous living situation. The reviewer also commended the follow-up care provided by Karen at Place for Mom.

    In contrast to these positive reviews, one individual described Lakeshore as dirty, dark, and not a happy place without providing further details or elaboration on their experience.

    Overall, these reviews provide mixed perspectives on Lakeshore Residential Care in Oakland. While some individuals had positive experiences with attentive staff, clean facilities, and improved quality of life for their loved ones, others encountered issues such as lack of communication, unpleasant odors, and a perceived lack of care and compassion for residents.
