Cascades of Grass Valley offers three levels of residential care: Independent Living for residents who want minimal assistance, Assisted Living for those who benefit from help with daily tasks, and a secured Memory Care program for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Each level is staffed and structured to match the expected needs of its residents, allowing people to transition between care types if their requirements change over time without leaving the community.
Beyond the primary care types, the community supports short-term respite stays, specialized diabetes management, and access to a speech therapist when needed. On-site clinical resources include regular visits from a dentist, physical and occupational therapists, and a podiatrist. Staff nurses oversee medication management, incontinence care, and ambulatory assistance, and the environment is laid out to accommodate memory loss. Hospice services can be arranged for residents who need end-of-life support, ensuring continuity of care without relocation.
Residences are available in multiple layouts, some with wheelchair-accessible showers, pet-friendly policies, and access to outdoor areas or on-site parking. Because floor plans vary, not every unit includes every listed feature, so touring specific apartments is recommended to confirm details important to the individual resident.
Daily meals are prepared on site, and the kitchen staff can accommodate standard, kosher, and vegetarian diets. Menus are designed to meet nutritional guidelines while allowing for personal choice, and staff is available to assist anyone who needs help with dining or dietary monitoring.
Shared amenities include an activity center, scheduled fitness programs, and a library and computer lounge for reading or internet use. Residents can join organized social outings, spend time outdoors in designated areas, and participate in yoga or chair-yoga sessions aimed at maintaining flexibility and balance.
