Good Samaritan Hospital sits less than a mile away at 0.92 miles, which is a practical consideration for a campus serving both assisted living and memory care residents. The neighborhood Walk Score is 66, meaning the surrounding area is moderately walkable, and some day-to-day errands are reachable on foot.

Both care tracks share the same campus. Confirmed on-site offerings include transportation services, recreational activities, and exercise programming. The community is pet-friendly.

State inspections have covered a broad range of operational categories, including medication management, staffing and staff credentials, care planning and documentation, food service, and resident rights. That breadth is worth noting: five distinct theme areas across four years of inspection history suggest regulators have looked at this facility from multiple angles.

Belmont Village Senior Living Los Gatos is a mid-sized, recently opened campus that combines assisted living and memory care in a location with strong hospital proximity. At 79% occupancy four years in, it is a community still building toward full capacity.

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in California?

Assisted living in California supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in California?

Assisted living in California is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does California Medicaid cover assisted living?

California Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including California) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
