I would recommend The Meadows to other families. The staff get to know the tenants and their family/ support providers and share observations.

Chateau On Capitol Avenue in Sacramento, CA
5.0

My 91 year old mother has been at Chateau on Capitol Ave. for about six months and has adapted well. She has made many new friends and is enjoying life there. The staff are very attentive and I'm impressed that every staff member calls her by name. It is a personal touch that I find endearing. Her room is always clean and she loves the food. I am comfortable with the level of care she is receiving and believe this move will add quality years to her life. My brother and sister have commented on the improvement in her health, attitude and her out look on life. Would recommend this facility to those who are looking for a quality facility to care for their family members.

New Horizon Board and Care in Elk Grove, CA
4.9

My sister, Cindy, was a client at this home for almost 10 years. She was bed and Geri-chair bound for the entire time. She had dementia as well. Because I live across the country, we were rarely able to personally visit. [Name removed], her care giver, as well as her hospice company and our hired conservator kept us updated on her status. She was on and out of hospice throughout this time. My sister was always well fed, and never had any bedsores or skin breakdown. She was always treated with love and respect. On my sister’s last day, her care givers made every effort to contact us as soon as possible. I can give an outstanding recommendation for this company. -Dina Tanner
