Quality Care
I worked here for about 9 months in both memory care and assisted living units on the night shift. During that time, I truly enjoyed caring for the residents and always strived to go above and beyond in meeting their needs. Unfortunately, my time with the company ended unexpectedly due to a situation that I believe could have been handled more fairly, especially given my dedication and strong reputation among residents and families. In my experience, the organization tends to overlook the contributions of reliable staff while allowing ongoing issues with others (such as frequent call-offs or lack of engagement) to persist. Management, including regional leadership, often struggled to address concerns directly or transparently, which made it difficult to feel supported as an employee. That said, if you choose to work here, I would advise being very diligent, professional, and cautious. Focus on providing excellent care to residents, but also be mindful of how workplace dynamics are handled.

When I began visiting assisted living facilities for my mom several months ago, Carlton Senior Living stood out as the best place for her to live not only safely but also to maintain much of her independence. Even though it took time for her to warm up to the idea of moving from her home in the Bay Area, where she had lived for 20 years, to an assisted living facility in Sacramento, she moved into Carlton 6 weeks ago and is now more content with her life than she's been in a very long time. She repeatedly tells me the staff is absolutely wonderful and helps her with whatever she needs with the utmost care, compassion, dignity and respect. Whenever she talks to any of the staff, she knows she is all that matters to them at that time and feels heard and valued. She also raves about the food. Honestly, I've never seen her eat as well as she has since moving into Carlton. As a result, she feels so much better both physically and emotionally. She has more energy throughout the day and loves participating in many different activities including those she never had an interest in before. My own experience with Carlton staff has been nothing short of amazing. Moving my mom into Carlton is the first time I've dealt with a senior living facility. I believe this experience has been so successful because everyone at Carlton has been there each step of the way with endless patience and open hearts. I'm deeply grateful to everyone at Carlton, and I think the text my mom sent me a couple of days ago says it best: "I love my life here beyond the moon!"

My 95-year-old mother was a resident at the Atrium at Carlton Senior Living for three weeks. Unfortunately, my mother passed away after a brief hospitalization, followed by her return to the Atrium on hospice care. I would like to complement all of the staff – maintenance, kitchen, nursing, care partners, med techs, housekeeping– for making my mother‘s brief stay as comfortable as possible. I would also like to thank them for their professional, kind and compassionate attitude towards my mother. The staff made a difficult situation a little easier for my husband and myself. We would highly recommend Carlton sr Living to family and friends looking for care for their loved one.
