Recent reviews of Independent Living in Sacramento County, CA
WellQuest of Granite Bay
4.2

The newness of the facility really stood out to us along with the variety of unit sizes they had available and the meal service.

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.

WellQuest of Elk Grove
5.0

My loved one is currently a resident at WellQuest of Elk Grove and everything has been great at this facility so far. They were very patient with explaining options/details. The move in was super easy. The food is decent and it smells good! I would definitely recommend WellQuest of Elk Grove to others.
