About Cadence Millbrae

Cadence Millbrae is ideally located across the street from Green Hills park and just 5 blocks from downtown Millbrae. Currently undergoing a top-to-bottom renovation, Cadence Living is transforming this majestic Spanish Colonial beauty into one of the most desirable lifestyle communities in all of Millbrae. Our holistic approach to community engagement supports all aspects of life: physical, emotional, social, spiritual and intellectual well-being. Taken together, our programs at Cadence Millbrae creates a symphony that not only contributes to individual happiness and wellness, but also helps create meaningful bonds and caring connections between residents, our staff, family members and the larger community. We believe independent living should be more than just a comfortable apartment for rightsizing your life. It’s the perfect opportunity to grow your network of friends, improve your overall health and vitality, and do more of what you love, without all the time-consuming chores, expenses, taxes and responsibilities that homeownership entails. Our independent living options give you peace of mind and lock-and-go freedom to travel, visit friends and family, and do the things you’ve always wanted to do. At Cadence Millbrae, our assisted living and memory care services are delivered by well-trained and experienced caregivers who excel in creating personal connections and genuine warmth. Our culture is founded on the principles of kindness, respect and personal accountability to ensure the highest quality of care for our residents and peace of mind for their family members. And, there has never been a better time to move to Cadence Millbrae than now during our current renovation. Join us and Find your Cadence! Cadence Millbrae by Cogir also offers Master-Care - Master•Care is an Enhanced Care Management and Community Support provider in multiple California counties and is contracted with multiple Managed Care Plans. This program helps bridge between the healthcare world, the private-pay world and the Managed Care world, Master•Care helps bring together needed services — on a case-by-case basis — to improve outcomes and reduce financial burden.

[name removed] provided a descriptive explanation of the facility. She answered all my concerns and questions about assisted living at Cadence. The facility is very inviting and the staff is very friendly. The rooms are sufficient and seem to be comfortable.

We had a great tour of Cadence. It was actually our second tour - we were looking at things a little more closely. [name removed] was excellent and answered all of our questions. We are in the process of applying for residence at Cadence.

My daughter toured this facility for me as I am currently in North Carolina. She said it was very nice as was the staff. She said it appears to be an assisted living facility which is not what I'm looking for. Also, the cost was about 3X more than what I told "A Place for Mom" that I can afford.

Our families experience

I think Cadence has been a healthy clean environment that has disappointed me occasionally when they failed to show up in time for my dad. The food is bland and while it looks good on the menu and the plate it is usually tasteless and too institutional. My dad never participated in any activities so didn't rate that. Like all these assisted living places for profit it is DRASTICALLY overpriced while underpaying their everyday staff.

Review for Cadence Millbrae by Cogir

Everything has been excellent, and the marketer took great care of us during the admission process. The staff is extremely attentive, the building is always clean, we love the room for my nana- it's spacious. She enjoys the meals and going for walks to church.

Response from the community

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re so glad to hear the admission process went smoothly and that our team took great care of your family. It’s wonderful to know your nana is enjoying her spacious room, the meals, and her walks to church, and that the attentive staff and clean environment have made such a positive difference.
