We just moved my husband into the Life Guidance memory care at Atria. This was one of the hardest things I’ve had to go through in life. My husband is settling in very nicely and the staff have been a huge blessing to our family. Ingrid the Director has been there 24 years and she has been phenomenal. She sends me photos, updates me on how he has been settling in, I am very pleased. All of my interactions with them been great. He’s already made a few friends, he really enjoys the meals and the large courtyard he can walk around in or just sit and enjoy. They do his laundry, his medication, they help him shower and dress. All of the rooms are private rooms, they are bright and cozy. I feel good about this. The guilt has shaken off and I know he is being cared for. They also offer a support group we get to attend monthly and a family social which I think is very nice. We don’t have to go through this alone. Thank you Atria

My grandmother has lived here for two years now. The grounds are stunning, tucked away in a nice residential neighborhood. They offer boat load of nice amenities she gets to enjoy. It’s a larger campus compared to most but we love that, way more residents for her to mingle with and a lot more areas to visit and explore. We felt she would have been bored in the smaller facilities. We love that they have two restaurants, she has so many menu options it’s been wonderful. We love visiting her and getting chicken wings and milk shakes at the grille! The Cobb salad is outstanding. The staff have been there many years and everyone is so friendly and warm. We are very happy with Atria Gardens.

Amazing value. If you are in the market for senior living, you really should check out Atria El Camino Gardens. They offering a beautiful campus in a really nice neighborhood. Even though their address is in Carmichael, they are very close to the Arden Park area which is really nice with million dollar homes neighboring the community. It’s a great residential area, very safe, the food is great and the staff are incredibly attentive and know each resident by name. They haven’t switched owners in over 30 years, which happened at my parents previous facility and quite frankly that was a nightmare. My mom lives in the independent section and my dad is in their life guidance memory support section. The other nice thing is if my mom ever gets to a point where she needs more help, she doesn’t have to move to another location. she can stay in her same apartment and add on medication management or bathing, whatever she needs. Other places require you to move buildings or floors, at El Camino Gardens you don’t have to. The head manager has been with the company for 10 years, the memory care manager has been there 26 years, my moms housekeeper has been there 13 years, there’s a lot of long term employees which seems to be rare. I highly recommend you check them out.
