Shasta Estates in Redding, California, operates as an Independent Living community. Residents manage their own schedules while knowing that a staffed therapy room is on site for physical, occupational, or speech therapy ordered by their physicians. Having this space inside the community means residents do not need to arrange outside travel for routine therapeutic sessions, which can shorten recovery times and reduce the hassle of outpatient visits.
Beyond the therapy services, the community maintains 24-hour staff coverage, an emergency call system in each apartment, and routine wellness checks. Team members coordinate with outside healthcare providers and help residents schedule off-site appointments when additional clinical services are required, keeping families informed of any changes.
Apartments are available in several floor plans, many featuring a kitchenette for light meal preparation, cable service, and in-unit laundry. Regular housekeeping is provided, and maintenance staff handle repairs. Not every unit includes every listed feature, so prospective residents should confirm specific details when selecting their apartment.
Meals are prepared on site and served three times daily in a communal dining room. Menus rotate to include familiar favorites and nutritionally balanced options that accommodate most common dietary needs. Residents who prefer to cook occasionally can do so in units that include a kitchenette.
Amenities include a barber and beauty shop, an exercise room with age-appropriate equipment, a small library, community-wide internet access, and scheduled transportation for shopping, appointments, and local outings. The property is pet-friendly, allowing residents to bring a cat or small dog. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
