Brooke's Place at Carlton sits in the "Golden Triangle" of Southwest Riverside County, offering senior care in a newer, quiet neighborhood and you'll find the atmosphere warm and peaceful, where residents spend time on a spacious backyard patio or in a cozy living room with a fireplace, and the staff helps with daily needs and keeps things gentle and friendly. The home has only four beds available, which makes for a small, private environment, and people say the staff is both kind and joyful, helping residents feel comfortable right away. Seniors can pick from several living options, including detached homes, various sizes of apartments, or studios, and there are wheelchair accessible showers, bathtub options, and private HDTVs in the rooms if people want those, and you'll see they allow both dogs and cats, keeping things pet-friendly but with some weight limits for safety, and even offer help with pet care if needed.
The facility provides meals with an eye on special diets, including vegetarian and diabetic care, and there are always options for nutritious, good-quality food. Residents enjoy social activities like gardening with raised beds, Bible studies, card tournaments, art and craft projects, games, and outings, so there's a structured schedule to support friendships, emotional well-being, and keeping the mind active. Brooke's Place at Carlton has a computer room, media center, TV lounge, billiards, a woodworking shop, library, and both outdoor and indoor walking paths, plus butterfly and hummingbird gardens, which make for peaceful walks or quiet afternoons.
People here can count on full care for high-acuity medical needs, nursing, hospice, and respite care, along with non-ambulatory and incontinence care. Doctors, nurses, podiatrists, massage therapists, and dentists are available by appointment, and transportation services help residents get to medical or dental appointments, sometimes with a fee and sometimes complimentary. Staff can communicate in a wide range of languages, like English, French, Spanish, Russian, Tagalog, Hindi, and many more, so people from all backgrounds feel right at home. Medication management, physical therapy, memory care-especially for Alzheimer's and other dementia-are handled with patience and skill, and there's a Wander Guard or similar system to help residents feel more secure and prevent wandering for those who need it.
The property's secured with a gate and supports independent living as much as possible, bringing in services like housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, and in-room kitchens for those who like to cook for themselves. There's a beauty salon and barber shop on-site, devotional and worship services, game and craft spaces, lifts, and power recliners for comfort, and private or shared dining rooms depending on resident preference and need. Brooke's Place at Carlton stands out for blending supportive senior care with some unique mental health and youth-focused services, so the culture feels both caring and highly individualized, and the community is small enough that it's easy for folks to get to know both staff and neighbors, with activities and programs always tailored to each person's needs and interests. Multiple payment options exist, including rent plus care fees or hourly rates, so families can choose what's best for their situation. Awards for outstanding care and activities back up what people who live here already talk about-a simple, well-run home where people look out for each other and do their best to make every day safe, comfortable, and meaningful.
