The Chateau on Capitol Avenue sits at 2701 Capitol Ave in Sacramento, and it's one of those places where people can really settle in as their needs change, so folks can stay through different stages from independent living to assisted living, even memory care and hospice, all in the same community. You'll find 81 licensed beds and options like private studios or one- and two-bedroom apartments, and it's all set up so people with pets can have them right in the room and enjoy some time out on their patios. The building's got both indoor and outdoor spots where people can gather, chat, play cards, or join in activities, which really helps when folks want some company or a bit of fresh air, and there are safety features throughout for both elders and folks with disabilities.
The Chateau allows men as residents, and the staff stays awake all night, with nurses on duty and on-call, and the care team helps out with dressing, bathing, medication, and other personal care. There's help for folks who can't walk, with assisted transfers from bed to wheelchair, and the staff looks out for people who have bowel or bladder incontinence or need diabetic care, including blood sugar checks and management. They offer meals every day, with restaurant-style dining so you don't have to worry about cooking, and they'll make vegetarian food if you want. People can get to a beautician or barber right on the property, and there are also visits from podiatrists and physical therapists. The Chateau brings in devotional services, offers lectures, art classes, outings, socials, happy hours, movie nights, baking classes, music, and even has virtual programs and digital signage for people who like to keep busy or just browse information.
If someone wants to go somewhere, transportation's covered with parking, a garage, complimentary rides, and the bus line's nearby, and if you still drive, there's a place to park. The location is easy to reach from the freeway. Residents and their families find a bit of peace knowing the staff can handle emergencies at all hours. Outdoor smoking has a set area, and indoor or private room smoking isn't allowed. You'll find meals, care, activities, and devotion all onsite, with a "Coffee on the go" spot at the Bistro for anyone who likes a morning cup with a view of Midtown, and dining halls for fine meals shared with neighbors. The Chateau accepts private pay, doesn't take Medicare, and is a state-licensed Residential Care Elderly facility, certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services for other services. It provides a calm, homelike place with options for adult day care, assisted living, home care, memory support, and even has some nursing home care. There's a focus on health education, social activities, regular outings, and religious services for those who want them, and staff make sure people are safe, comfortable, and cared for, no matter which type of support they need as the years roll on.
