Atria Grass Valley

At the end of 2023 to the start of 2024, my mother, Shirley Miller, was having mobility and memory issues and could no longer remain in her house without full-time care. My wife and I visited three Grass Valley Assisted Living Facilities which included Atria Senior Assisted Living Facility. Of the three locations, Atria had the most professional, attentive, and warm personnel. We visited on a Sunday. We decided to have a follow-up meeting during the work week with my mother and the Atria Director, Joanna Lehman. At our follow-up meeting, we met Joanna for the first time and found her to model exactly what we had experienced from our prior facility review meeting. She engaged with the medical staff, care givers, maintenance staff, kitchen staff, and the elderly occupants with the loving care of a family member and loved one. My mother was very impressed and was joyous at our get-to-know-the-facility lunch. Joanna introduced us to all the key Atria Staff. Our four-hour meeting seemed like an hour. We signed up and moved in later that month, February 26th, 2024. After moving in, the level of care is consistent with the attitudes we experienced on our initial visit, and Atria’s Staff and elderly occupants have become extended family. With Nurse T’s medical expertise and willingness to do what is best for our mother, Shirley’s leg strength has increased. Nurse T’s management of her medical staff in dispensary of Shirley’s prescriptions both morning and night, have my mother anticipating the time they visit. Continually the Caregivers call out my mother’s name as though she’s a long lost relative while providing laundry, room clean-up, and escort services to the cafeteria to ensure she is not in a vulnerable position for a possible fall. Atria engages the elderly occupants with a full activity schedule. When Shirley may get bored, she always has something to do to improve her attitude and engagement with others her age. Activities are constant, needed, and occur after and before every meal. The Atria Staff reminds her of the activities since she forgets so often lately. It seems as though the Atria Staff enjoys the activity schedule as equally as the elderly occupants do. In conclusion, I truly have nothing critically negative to say about Atria, yet truly all is very good and constructive in building a sense of extended family and care for our mother. The attentiveness and care of the elderly occupants by the Atria Staff allows us to sleep better at night knowing she is there. Sincerely, John Miller

We are fortunate to have a place like Atria for seniors in our community. The staff focus on providing the best quality of life for the residents and it shows.

The place was well maintained and the staff were very courteous with the residents.
