Hilltop Estates in Redding, California, offers an Independent Living program designed for residents who want to maintain their autonomy while having predictable support close at hand. On-site medical resources emphasize cognitive health through the Brain Fitness program powered by Dakim, giving residents structured exercises aimed at memory retention and mental agility. This clinical tool is available within the community so residents can participate without leaving the property, providing a straightforward way to integrate brain-training into their daily routine.
Beyond the dedicated cognitive program, the community coordinates routine wellness monitoring and makes it easy for residents to schedule off-site medical appointments when additional care is needed. Staff members can help track progress in the Dakim system and encourage participation, and common-sense safety measures—such as an available emergency call response—are in place. Residents remain responsible for their own medication unless they choose to involve outside home-health providers, keeping control in the hands of the individual while still offering a supportive environment.
Residences come with baseline services such as housekeeping and scheduled laundry service, reducing the need for residents to manage day-to-day chores on their own. Apartments vary in layout and size; not every unit includes every feature, so prospective residents should confirm details such as closet configurations or specific appliance packages during a tour.
Dining is served in a central dining room with table service, and a private dining room can be reserved for celebrations or family visits. Menus are prepared to accommodate common dietary preferences and physician-ordered modifications, and meal times are structured yet flexible enough to fit individual schedules.
Hilltop Estates rounds out daily living with resident parking, wheelchair-accessible design, an on-site barber and beauty shop, an exercise room, a movie room, internet access in common areas, communal gardens, and a library. Scheduled transportation helps residents reach shopping, medical appointments, and local events. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
