Executive Directors and owners

I first toured Brookdale Redwood City many years ago. It was one of the first large assisted living communities built in Redwood City and the Peninsula. It was originally called Woodside Terrace. The community is ideally located on Woodside Road near El Camino. A quick trip to Kaiser or Stanford hospital. If you live in the area its hard to miss the Brookdale Redwood City bus taking residents out for activities. The community is really focused on more independent living residents and those with lighter assisted living needs.

Hours of operation

The community is operated 24 hours a day, however visiting hours are typically 9am to 7pm. Family members can schedule visits as needed.

Great location and independent facility. The facility is located off Woodside Road near El Camino so it’s very convenient for me to visit my aunt. I also like how they have a shuttle that can take her shopping if she wants.
