Eskaton Village Placerville

Great place to work. And it will be a career for me for a long time

My mom lived at Placerville Eskaton for 10 months before her passing. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Placerville Eskaton. Every single one of the staff members are kind, fun and helpful. They keep their residents busy with fun activities and field trips. My mom thought the food was great! The grounds and facility are always kept so beautiful. I would highly recommend Eskaton, and if I ever need a facility like this, Placerville Eskaton will definitely be my choice. Sally Moore

When you entered the large structure of Eskaton Village Placerville, you could see that off to one side was memory care. So, they had a long, large rectangular corridor that kept them from getting to the outside. The rest of the building had all the units and the people were able to flow from the library area, the craft area, and the exercise areas to their cafeteria. And there was a grand piano which I seated my mother at and she was terrific. Even with Alzheimer's, she can read the notes even though the short-term memory is virtually gone. The reason that we probably will reject it is that although there was an outdoor courtyard in the middle of the memory care, my mom will not be able to access it on her own. I think that they only were allowed to go out there with an aide. If that were to change, we'd probably take her there. We visited them twice and they're lovely, and they had 2 different dining areas. My husband had set up someone for that day. He was unable to go, but I succeeded in persuading Mom to go in with me. Mom played the piano while we were waiting for the staff to be free. And then they found an empty room and showed us the very small closets that were not built in, but with enormous bathrooms that would facilitate wheelchairs and an aide. My mom would be safe there and it was close to Marshall Hospital. The staff who assisted us was lovely.

I’ve lived here at EVP for about two years and it’s been an absolute joy, every minute of it. Everything about being here is delightful. I haven’t met a neighbor I didn’t like, as everyone is so kind and pleasant all of the time, from neighbors to staff. I can also say I’ve never had a meal I didn’t enjoy, the options and availability in our dining, along with the food being so consistent and well made, it’s all fabulous and I’m so thankful for it all. The activities and options here are also wonderful, from group shopping trips to swimming, but my absolutely favorite activity here would have to be the live performed concerts we have regularly. The variety in music and genres, there’s never been a performer I didn’t enjoy. It’s so wonderful here and I can absolutely say that This is my home, through and through, and I cannot imagine living anywhere else. I am very thankful and my family and I found this place for me.
