Independent Living
The newness of the facility really stood out to us along with the variety of unit sizes they had available and the meal service.
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.
We would recommend Eskaton based on overall quality of care and relative value compared to alternatives. Relative good "bang for the buck".
