Truly the BEST

My wife has been living at Carlton Plazas memory care for three years and I have no doubt in my mind it has added quality and meaning to her life. I toured 6 different communities before choosing Carlton. I made the best decision for us both. The care staff love her as their own mother. They do special things for families to come and spend time with their loved ones. I’m grateful to Carlton and their entire staff

Caring for my family member

Choosing a senior living community for a loved one is never an easy decision, but our experience with Carlton Senior Living has given our family so much peace of mind. From the moment we walked through the doors, everyone made us feel welcomed and genuinely cared about making the transition as smooth as possible. The community is always clean, well cared for, and has a warm, comfortable atmosphere. Every time we visit, it’s obvious that the staff takes pride in creating a place where residents can truly feel at home. We were especially grateful for the support we received from the marketing representative in the front business office during move-in. Since our family wasn’t able to assist with setting up our loved one’s apartment, she went above and beyond by coordinating with the maintenance team to assemble a small book and hang pictures on the walls. Her willingness to help and ensure everything was taken care of made what could have been a stressful transition much easier for us

We recently toured Carlton facility and thought the place would be a good fit for mom. We are still looking but this facility is at the top of our list. When placing a family member in a place many questions need to be asked. We really think that this location will be perfect!

Amazing

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Carlton Senior Living. The level of care the staff provides is truly exceptional—they are compassionate, attentive, and genuinely treat every resident with kindness and respect. The facility is always clean, beautiful, and well-maintained, creating a warm and welcoming environment. The food is also incredible! There are plenty of delicious options, and it’s clear that a lot of care goes into preparing quality meals. It’s comforting to know that residents are not only well cared for but also get to enjoy great food every day. If you’re looking for a senior living community where your loved one will be treated like family, I highly recommend Carlton Senior Living.

Mom is happier here

My Mom has alcoholic dementia and is doing as well as can be expected in large part due to the community and services provided here. She has needed more help over the past year, congruent with the natural course of her disease, and will eventually need full memory care but for now she is fairly independent. At this point she has some extra help with medication management, with bathing and housekeeping. She also gets her primary medical care onsite and they have done well to serve her needs. She is overall happier here than she was at home with family members doing all things for her. I'm glad we have a place for her that will serve all her needs for the rest of her life.

Staff has been great, food is wonderful, Dad is very comfortable and happy.

The staff has all been very accommodating and helpful. The food is healthy and is also good quality. The staff is very attentive and quick to respond if needed. On occasion, however, they can be slow to call the family if something is needed, like refilling medication. There are all sorts of activities available and my father and he is able to chose what he participates in. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the community hasn't had any cases and has been quick to respond to protect the residents.

Best place

This place is remarkable my mom moved her a few months ago. She had a broken hip at the age of 85 and she only weighed 98 lbs. She now weighs 117 lbs. The staffing is great are so energetic and encourage her to participate in all the many activities every day. The also are very compassionate to her health needs. The facility has so many windows to show the beautiful wooded surroundings outside.

The best place for MOM

The staff at Carlton Senior Living (Sacramento) have consistently demonstrated an eagerness and enthusiasm for care of the residents they always keep us informed of our mothers’ progress and of any issues that might arise. They also are pro-active and make suggestions to help. The nurses and staff are amazing! They're all so supportive and treat her like a friend. They truly care about her. My mother has been there for the past 4 years. They are constantly going the extra mile to make sure she is not only comfortable and safe, but also entertained and feels included in the community. The variety of experiences the Carlton creates for the residences is impressive. Most of all, the Carlton is a safe place for my mom; safe because people are genuinely caring, thoughtful, and watchful to ensure that she gets the most from each day. They monitor her health and add to her happiness.
