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.

Mom likes her meals and all of the activities. Pacifica is clean, the grounds are nice and it is great place for those live there. Thank you all!!!!

Solano Life House in Dixon, CA
5.0

We found Solano Life House through A Place for Mom. We were able to get an appointment to tour the facility the same day our rep from. A Place for Mom had reached out for us. The facility is very clean and updates. It has a spacious courtyard for the residents to enjoy when the weather permits. The team here is very caring and patient. They made an impact on my father in-law as well as on my entire family. For the residents, they provide nutritious meals and their activity team keeps them entertained, they also have field trips scheduled for them. If you are looking for a memory care facility for a loved one, I highly recommend Solano Life House. They are very compassionate and you will have peace of mind knowing your loved ones are being taken care of.

  • Help with personal care
  • Rehabilitation care, including physical and speech therapy
  • Mobility assistance
  • Palliative and hospice care
  • Health care services
  • Complimentary transportation
  • 24-hour care and supervision
