Evening Shade Manor sits over on Sandy Street in El Cajon and has room for six seniors in a peaceful, home-like setting, and folks will find it's a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly where residents get a blend of independence and support, with staff who help as much or as little as needed, offering care like assisted living, memory care including Alzheimer's support, skilled nursing, and independent living, and the property was set up so seniors with mobility concerns can get around easily, with wheelchair accessible private showers, ADA-compliant bathrooms, safety and handicap features, sprinkler systems, and emergency pull cords in rooms just in case, and there's studio, single, and two-bedroom housing options priced between $2,500 and $10,000 a month, usually less than other places in the region, with insurance like Medicare and long-term care insurance accepted, and you get all the basics like utilities, washers and dryers, kitchens and kitchenettes, and even cable TV.
There's always someone on-call, 24/7, and health workers-Registered Nurses handle regular checkups, the staff helps with medication management and personal care, and services cover incontinence care, non-ambulatory care, Parkinson's support, and rehabilitation for those who need it, plus folks can get walking and wheelchair assistance whenever it's needed, and there's memory care-specific plans that really work hard for those who need them. Evening Shade Manor keeps things social and lively too, with meals included, a resident dining hall, arts and crafts classes, education programs, health and wellness activities, a fitness center, a salon and barber shop, a theater room, and there's always laundry, housekeeping, and linen services so nobody's got to worry about chores.
They make sure families can be as involved as they want, reaching out with support, education, and guest services, and there's even help with moving, plus parking for visitors and pets like dogs are welcome, and transportation for errands or appointments is covered, which makes staying active-or just getting out for fun-pretty straightforward.
Rooms here come with all appliances included, and you'll find safety measures like fall prevention programs, ongoing health screenings, and social activities that go from simple games to community gatherings, so residents can stay connected, and the friendly, smaller environment lets folks form bonds with both staff and each other, which matters quite a bit, all making Evening Shade Manor a comfortable spot when someone needs a little extra help but still wants to feel at home.
