John is one of the caregivers in Muirwoods and he is excellent. You can really tell he cares for his residents and I would be at ease having my loved ones be cared by him. All the staff are friendly too and treat residents like theyre their loved ones.

My husband has been a resident at Muir Woods for 2 1/2 years. I have found the staff and caregivers to be very caring and responsive to his needs as well as my own. Lia Williams is an especially attentive and thoughtful caregiver. Highly recommended!
