Eskaton Village Carmichael sits on 37 acres in Carmichael and gives older adults many choices, and the whole place is arranged to let folks find what suits them, whether that's Independent Living in an apartment or cottage with a den, Assisted Living when daily help gets important, Memory Care with special programs for folks living with dementia or Alzheimer's, Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation for people who need medical care or to recover after a hospital stay, or just a short-term stay so caregivers can get a break. The community provides around-the-clock skilled nursing, restorative therapy, and personal care, and residents have a dedicated primary nursing assistant who helps with daily needs and guides recovery, and for folks needing long-term care, the nurses and therapy staff work closely with the resident's doctor, family, and the rest of the care team to build a personal care plan. The Memory Care program centers around seven areas of well-being: identity, connectedness, security, choice, meaning, growth, and joy, and the special memory care area is set up for safety and comfort, with mindful interaction as a core part of the day. The community offers home care services, too, so support can come right to a resident's door if needed.
The community building is well maintained, and some say it's beautiful, with semi-private rooms that include bed controls, emergency call buttons, and TV controls, so if you need help, you can always get it quickly. Residents and even short-term guests can take part in everything on offer, so everyone can join in dining, social activities, wellness programs, and events meant to get people engaged and moving, and the programs are made to help folks thrive and enjoy life no matter what level of care they need. Eskaton Village Carmichael stands as a Life Plan Community, also called a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), so if health changes, residents get priority access to higher levels of care without moving to a different community. The care center has been recognized by U.S. News and World Report as one of the best nursing homes in America. The staff has a person-centered culture, and everyone works together-resident, family, doctors, care workers-to set goals and make care plans that fit each person. Whether someone comes for independent living, needs support with daily life, wants a short-term break after a hospital trip, or needs specialized memory care or rehabilitation, the community can provide choices and services tailored to that need. Virtual tours are available for One Bedroom Apartments with Den, Two Bedroom Apartments with Den, and Two Bedroom Cottages with Den, so people can see what might fit them best before making plans. Resort-style amenities and an active lifestyle round out the offerings, but always with a focus on safety, support, and a personal approach to care.
