Rhoda Goldman Plaza - San Francisco Assisted Living & Memory Care

Rhoda Goldman Plaza has exceeded our expectations in every way. My mother in law was greeted with open arms and in less than six weeks is fully settled, with a gaggle of new friends and a smile and lightness I haven't seen in years - maybe decades! The facility is lovely, clean, and attractive, without being overly grand. The activities are worthwhile, well organized, and varied. The food is excellent for a facility of this type, and very fresh and healthy. But it's the people who work here who are the secret sauce. Everyone is kind, helpful, service minded, attentive, and genuinely cares. This is one of the few homes left that isn't owned by a corporate parent, and it makes a huge difference. RGP is a not for profit that manages only this facility - the CEO sits in an office on the first floor, and is accessible for problem solving, feedback, and warm interactions with residents and families. No policies being handed down from headquarters, looking to fleece you at every turn. Costs are "what they are," and absolutely fair and transparent. My husband and I will sign ourselves up for RGP when the time comes to move to a facility with support - no question! Truly, for a real home for the elders in your family, and a home for the extended family as well, I cannot say enough positive things about Rhoda Goldman Plaza.

Rhoda Goldman Plaza is a wonderful place for senior citizens that need extra care. My husband after 6 weeks is starting to feel comfortable and enjoying his friendship with one of the residents. Everyone is very caring and I know my husband is safe and being taken care of in a professional manner.

Rhoda Goldman Plaza is a wonderful assisted living facility conveniently located in a great San Francisco neighborhood. My mother recently moved into a studio apartment there and is settling into her new surroundings and community. Thus far I can say that RGP is really well maintained. The building is twenty-five years old but looks fresh and clean wherever you go. The food served in the dining hall is quite good with plenty of options. Most importantly, the entire staff at Rhoda Goldman Plaza have been amazing. Everyone we have dealt with has been pleasant and professional. People seem to enjoy working there and tend to stay a long time. The residents are also a great bunch of folks that I look forward to getting to know better. Many are accomplished Bay Area professionals with interesting stories and backgrounds. It is early in this journey for our mom and us, but so far we are very pleased overall. I feel that my mother is well cared for at RGP with many opportunities available to her there to continue to thrive. No place is perfect and there are several other excellent facilities in San Francisco worth considering. Rhoda Goldman Plaza offers the quality, convenience, and value we were looking for. It seems to be a good fit for my mother and I highly recommend this place.

My experience with RGP is as an exhibiting artist. I found the gallery space and the staff to be terrific and welcoming. They put on a wonderful opening reception! As an exhibitor I got to meet many of the residents. They all seemed very cared for and content. The facility was spotless and well staffed. The interactions between staff and residents were genuine, warm and pleasant. The staff seemed as happy as the residents and I think that makes a difference.

I was sitting in the lobby of Rhoda Goldman Plaza, waiting for a taxi when a couple walked in, talked to the staff at the front desk and signed in. Before sitting down they walked over to me and the woman asked be if I was a resident here, and I replied, " Yes, I am." "Do you like it here?" she asked. "I do!" I said. Our conversation got no further because they were called to their appointment, which I think was a tour of the facility and my taxi arrived. If we had talked further I would have told them that I have been here only 3 months, and feel at home here. The residents have been welcoming , and the staff professional, friendly and helpful. When I came I was invited to create a space in which I would feel comfortable. Family, friends and staff made themselves available to help with that and I am enjoying my apartment very much. The residents are friendly and busy--if they want to be. I found there were many interesting activities to lure me away from the books I thought I would be reading. There is art (a new exhibit every 3 months), there are libraries on every floor, there is poetry, music, movies, lectures and there are trips to interesting places and events every week, flower arranging is another pleasure. However we are encouraged to spend our time as we please, so I will get to my books. Sometime! The dining room is very pleasant with a variety of seating options, and I look forward to the good food. A generous menu is presented for each meal so there is a lot of choice. The atmosphere is conducive to good conversation and I have met so many fine people. I could have said more to the couple, and I believe I will be able to embellish my story as time goes on. And I may even finish my book!
