South Shore Convalescent

My Mom-​in-​law was here for about 10 days while she rehabbed after breaking her knee cap in fall while on vacation, visiting from TX.
We chose this facility for her convalescence because it’s smaller, and the patient-​to-​staff ratio is much greater, than all the other places in Alameda. That would insure she’d get a consistent amount of attention and care.
My M-​i-​L is a tad ornery, and the staff was nothing if not buoyantly pleasant at all times with her, and professional and friendly with us. The PTs were hard-​working, as well as the «orderlies» (is that what they’re called?).
The activities board was filled with interesting things each day. For the 4^th of July, they arranged for viewing of the annual Mayor’s Parade (see Unilocal review of it here:
) and a nice BBQ.
The food, in general, isn’t very high quality, but then, these places are known for their cuisine, are they? We simply brought in quality supplemental tidbits for her.

Great place. They take excellent care of my mom, and when my mother in law and several friends were short term «guests» of the facility, they also received very good care. Plenty of activity most days and good nursing care. Those patients who are communicative all say good things about the food.
