Compass on the Bay was amazing to work with! Caity made the planning process smooth and stress-free, and the staff was so welcoming and supportive. The space is inviting and everything was set up perfectly for a successful event. Highly recommend!

Michael, thank you for your kind words and for helping make Assisted Living Week so special for our staff! I appreciate that you recognized our team for curating a successful event that was fun and inviting for associates. We could not have done it without you and your delicious smoothies!

Compass on the Bay has been home away from home for my husband. When we arrived, we were greeted by the most compassionate staff who welcomed us with open arms. We were immediately put at ease, and I knew right then and there that we had made the best decision for his respite care stay. My husband enjoys everything Compass has to offer. He interacts with the staff like they are his own family. He enjoys every meal, and participates in the daily activities that keep him moving and his spirits up. My family and I are so grateful to Compass on the Bay for their love and support. If you are looking for a memory care assisted living facility for a loved one, this place is it. It truly is a very special place. I highly recommend it!

Beautiful building with a great view of the bay and awesome audience at our Musical Ventriloquist performance today. Everyone recognized our Charlie McCarthy replica puppet. Special thanks to Erin, Mickey, and the super Activities Staff. The resident Brooks volunteered to wear our ventriloquist face mask to become our HUMAN DUMMY and sing a duet with Doug The Talking Dog. No, they did not sing together at the same time... I'm not that good!
Response from the owner
Kevin, our residents and associates absolutely loved having you perform! Thank you so much for bringing laughter and joy to our community, and we can't wait to have you back again soon!

Compass on the Bay has stepped in to support our family in multiple dire moments of need. My mother has had multiple respite stays at Compass often with very little advanced notice. She has always enjoyed her stay at Compass. Importantly, Compass has always been very responsive and flexible in their respite stay arrangements. They have been able to find an open bed with less than 24 hours notice and extend my mom's stay for multiple weeks than originally planned. They are a wonderful home with wonderful employees.
Response from the owner
Thank you, Trent, for your kind review! We have loved having your Mom with for us her past few stays here, and she has been a wonderful addition to the community. No matter how long a resident stays at Compass, it becomes their home and it brings us so much joy to care for them. We so appreciate you recognizing our dedicated and hardworking associates, and we truly wish your family the best!
