Solstice Senior Living at Las Cruces sits close to Mountain View Regional Medical Center and Memorial Medical Center, which makes seeing a doctor pretty easy if someone needs something checked out, and the campus has a tropical mirage look right out in the desert, so residents can enjoy a rose garden for walking, a year-round pool with a pergola, a hot tub, and plenty of walkways with benches, making it feel open and pleasant for anyone who likes being outside or just resting in the shade. The apartments come in studio and one-bedroom floor plans, some with balconies, kitchens, living areas, and nice views of the desert or courtyard, and they're designed for comfort, with things like accessible bathrooms, decorative pillows on the beds, natural light, and views into the kitchen or living room, so it's easy to move around and have visitors without feeling cramped. The dining area has big windows, chandeliers, and set tables that make mealtime feel a bit fancy, and the meals are chef-prepared with menus approved by a dietitian, so there's always something good to eat that matches different diets, and there's snack and beverage service to keep folks going between meals. Solstice offers a front desk, a media room, activity rooms, a cozy lobby with comfortable chairs and a "Welcome" sign, and there's also a salon for haircuts and a porch if someone wants to sit and talk or watch the day go by. Residents can join in activities like water aerobics, Tai Chi, bingo, poker, dances, and games like Mexican Train, so there's always something planned on the social calendar to meet new people or pick up a hobby. There's pet-friendly housing, Wi-Fi, high-speed internet, and transportation assistance for appointments or shopping, plus parking for those who still drive.
Solstice provides a lot of care options, including Independent Living for those who like to do things on their own while housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance are handled for them, Assisted Living for people who need help with bathing, dressing, or keeping track of medicines, and Memory Care with a safe set-up for residents with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias, including support to reduce confusion or keep people from wandering. Skilled Nursing services are available for seniors who need more advanced help than typical assisted living, and there are Home Care agency partnerships for added support, companionship, and non-medical care. Residents can keep living in familiar surroundings even if their needs change, so there's no need to move just because care needs go up. Special telehealth services offer 24/7 urgent care access through MeMD, making medical advice simple to get without leaving the residence, and regular licensing checks keep everything up to standard. The community is known for being clean, well-kept, and organized, with a welcoming staff and a calm, friendly feel, and the awards for Best of Senior Living and All-Star reflect good care and satisfied residents. There are 66 different floor plans to choose from, so there's room for different budgets and preferences, and resources like e-books or guides are there to help families figure out options and talk about care. The focus remains on everyone living as fully as possible with help available when needed, whether that's transportation, extra care, meals, or just a friendly face in the hallway.
