Lakeview Christian Home

Lakeview Christian Home, also known as Lakeview Christian Home of the Southwest and River Bend Retirement Community, sits over at 1905 W Pierce Street in Carlsbad, NM, and it's a place that's been around providing spiritual, medical, social, emotional, and physical support for seniors who want a Christian environment while aging with dignity, and they make sure folks have options with Independent Living, Assisted Living, Skilled Nursing and Nursing Home care, even offering Home Care when needed, and they're part of groups like the American Caregiver Relief Network and the Caregiver Community Forum. There are big rooms, cozy furniture, and private bathrooms with showers, and you get kitchens or kitchenettes, washers and dryers, plus housekeeping and laundry help, and they serve three meals each day along with snacks, so no one has to worry about being hungry or having a messy space. Residents can use several amenities, like a fitness center, a salon and barbershop, game and activities rooms, internet and cable TV, WiFi, guest parking, a dining hall, and there's always attention paid to safety with a sprinkler system and features for handicap access, so moving around is easier. Medical care is always close by because nurses, licensed practical nurses, skilled nursing assistants, and therapists are there day and night, providing services like wound care, medication support, occupational and speech therapy, IV therapy, sterile dressing care, podiatry, personal care assistance, bathing and toileting, diabetic care, non-ambulatory care, and help with wheelchairs or walking, and they've got Medicare certification plus a 5-star rating as a nursing facility, so there are good checks on the care they provide. Social activities like Bible classes, parties, arts and crafts, educational programs, health and wellness classes, and group outings keep people active and help everyone find community, and folks can come and go for shopping or medical appointments when they've got their own plans. Lakeview Christian Home gets help from friendly, fully trained staff who look out for each resident's needs, whether it's intensive nursing, short-term healing, memory care, or just a little companionship, and the building grounds are secured too, so everyone can feel safer living there. The place offers compassionate care, helps residents keep as much independence as possible, and uses unique names and programs to match every person's abilities, so no one feels out of place. The community usually has ongoing upgrades and construction projects funded by raised donations-over $486,000 raised to keep building new and better spaces for residents to enjoy. They won the 2025 Silver - Achievement in Quality Award from the American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living, getting recognized as one of only 209 providers across 40 states for high standards, so that's something they're proud of. Seniors find both comfort and good company at Lakeview Christian Home, with attention to faith, personal choices, and practical support for a better, easier life as they age.
