Carlton Senior Living Davis delivers three levels of residential support—Independent Living for seniors who can manage most daily activities on their own, Assisted Living for those who need scheduled help with tasks such as bathing or dressing, and a dedicated Memory Care program designed for residents living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Short-term respite stays are available for families who need temporary coverage, and the community is equipped to monitor and assist residents with diabetes management. A speech therapist is on call for residents recovering from stroke or facing other communication challenges.
The community is secured throughout, an important measure for individuals who may be prone to wandering. On-site medical services include incontinence and ambulatory care, hospice coordination, medication management, and regular visits by nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and a podiatrist. Apartments in the Memory Care wing have layouts and cues specifically intended to reduce confusion and anxiety, and care staff are trained to work exclusively with cognitive impairment. These layered resources allow most residents to remain in place even as medical or cognitive needs change.
Housing options range from studio to larger one-bedroom layouts, and not every apartment contains every feature listed. Some units offer kitchenettes for light meal preparation, while others emphasize open floor plans. Wi-Fi, individual climate controls, and wheelchair-accessible showers are available in select units. The main building includes common areas such as a central fireplace, a piano for resident use, and multiple outdoor patios where pets are permitted. On-site parking is provided for residents who still drive.
Meals are prepared by a professional chef and all-day dining lets residents eat on their own schedule rather than at fixed seating times. Menus can accommodate vegetarian preferences, low-sodium or no-sugar requests, and other physician-ordered diets. Restaurant-style service is standard, with guest meals offered so friends and family can join residents in the dining room. Snacks and beverages remain accessible between meals to support those who prefer smaller, more frequent portions.
Residents have access to an activity center, library and computer lounge, raised garden beds, and a swimming pool for low-impact exercise. Daily programming includes yoga or chair yoga, structured fitness classes, live music performances, social outings into Davis, and weekly happy hours. Birthday parties and other special events add to the social calendar. Outdoor areas are open for walking or relaxing whenever weather permits, and staff coordinate transportation so residents can attend off-site appointments or errands.
