This review is long overdue. When our mom's Alzheimer's reached the point where she could no longer live alone, we moved her to an assisted living facility. The first place was beautiful, almost like a fancy hotel. They had top notch security and a great staff; still my mom managed to escape. After her escape she was moved to another (more secure) area. She wasn't happy there, and the facility wouldn't budge, so we moved her to Gordon Manor.
Gordon Manor is an older facility and seems more like a big home. Our mom also escaped from Gordon Manor and had a few minor accidents

W/ one of the most cases when this pandemic started my friends and I decided to call to see if they can accept donations. We understand due to the current state and the restrictions we can't just assume. I did speak to the CEO and followed up w/ her twice before making the delivery on a Friday evening.
Explained to her that we are not part of any organization, that we just want to do something nice. We teamed up w/ Heaven's Kitchen to prepare 30 meals for this facility. We wanted to make sure we had everyone covered; not just nurses but administrative staff, janitorial.. I think

My mother is a current resident at the Gordon Manor. She had been in 3 previous homes that after some time decided they no longer wanted to care for my mother as she is non-verbal, and partially paralyzed due to a massive stroke. Yes, it is a distance for me to drive each day, but Gordon Manor is well worth it. The staff and facility are amazing. Their approach to care giving is top notch. I make it a point to be involved in my mother's care each and every day and have done so for the past 3.5 years. At the other facilities I felt I needed to be there just to make sure my mother actually

My mother spent 10 years at Gordon Manor. I can not say enough good things about them. We looked extensively at homes of all price ranges before selecting them. There are numerous resources, activities, certifications, etc which many reviews highlight and all are to GordonManor's credit. These things are important, however:
Above all. They loved my Mother like she was part of their family and my mother loved them!
My mothers condition was such that she required a great amount of care and even more so over time. Gordon Manor had the facilities, permits and training to accomodate her

My mom was a resident of Gordon Manor for 4 years and 1 month. From the moment she arrived until her recent death, she received the most caring, personal attention from her caregivers and the administrative staff. This place is a special jewel and the opposite of a large corporate run facility.
From the time my mom arrived there, she thought of it as home. My mom, had Alzheimer's and yet, she had access to the entire place, as well as, the beautiful and spacious backyard gardens where there are vegetable gardens, chickens and flower gardens. She was able to get out to the gardens on

Mom is now at Gordon Manor in RWC, a 3 acre property with fruit trees, vegetable garden and chickens. she is awake, participating in activities and has gained 4lbs :) (The food at the last facility was bad & mom lost 50lbs.) The food is really really good at Gordon Manor, the plate is very colorful. The staff is cheerful & very helpful, they know how to ambulate and transfer clients. Yes it is an older building , but much brighter and room to breath. It is less expensive that the place she was at, so mom has her old caregivers back from when she was at home to help her with her activities

I looked at many homes, some much higher priced, before selecting Gordon Manor. My priorities we the following: low turnover of staff, beautiful grounds for my mom (with alzheimer's) to wander safely, good medical, administrator, staff, and above all people with heart.
This is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. I can't speak highly enough of the genuine care provided here.

I can not say enough good things about this place. We were lucky enough to place my father here after a brief stay at a near by place where we had a terrible experience (see my other review). The staff is warm and caring and accommodating. You will have no doubt that your loved one is getting the attention and stimulation they need and in good, safe care. My father came to a peaceful end to his life here and my family will be forever grateful for the staff at Gordon manner. This place is the opposite of the big corporate profit centered care that is lurking out there. More than five stars

My Mom has been at Gordon Manor for one month and it is impossible to explain the positive changes that have occurred during this month. I cannot begin to illiterate the improvement we have seen. She had been at another facility that offered both independent and assisted living for twenty years. As she developed dementia we had moved her into the assisted living. When the dementia got so bad that we were required to have private aides around the clock we decided to look elsewhere. My Mom's doctor recommended Gordon Manor. The first couple of weeks were a bit tough, but since then she

Some background: My dad never stayed here, but I have visited this place and several others to search for a good place for him, as he had dementia and was getting too difficult for my mom to handle.
I rate this as a 5 star after coming full circle, comparing prices, cleanliness, staff and atmosphere of several different places.
The prices are lower, though not the lowest, I've seen. The grounds are tranquil with a large expanse of gardens, though not attempting to be grandiose (some other places blatantly try to dress up the common areas I'm guessing to ease family guilt for placing

We love Gordon Manor. Both my parents have dementia and they are getting excellent care. Gordon Manor is allowing my parents to keep their little dog with them and overseeing her care too. The grounds are really lovely with fountains, patios, lots of flowering plants, redwood trees, a chicken coup and vegetable garden. Gordon Manor does not feel institutional, it is full of antique furniture, lovely paintings (many by residents & the families of residents). It is a beautiful and light filled place. They have lots of activities every day that appeal to seniors (bingo, live entertainment

I am aware of the wide varieties of needs and care that the elderly may need to be required. Often you need to address the individual based on their background, this includes medical needs, family, religion, physical or mental issues, past history and ect. I am not a resident at Gordon Manor, so I cannot attest to the personalized care. I have had family here and I have visited them on a few occasions so my review is strictly based on my observations.
It is a care home with approx. 65 residents, both male and female. Some have needs that require lots of attention, while others are fairly self

My daughter's school chorus sang for the residents of this retirement home this morning. I really can't say anything about the care, but the facility is outstanding. It has obviously been recently renovated, and everything in the public areas was made with beautiful materials and kept clean. There were several places where it looks like residents were able to display their treasured collectibles such as antique dolls and china. Also, the paintings on the walls were really something special and I gather they were also done by a resident.
