Carmel Terrace

My dad moved into Carmel Terrace about a year and a half ago. Shortly after my mom had passed, he decided that the house would be too much for him. The staff made the admissions process seamless. We were fortunate enough that my dad was able to live independently, but knew there were people to care for him if he needed their assistance. They were extremely accommodating. The friendly staff and residents is the reason that my dad was able to flourish socially. He enjoyed all of the activities that they held. He loved going down to meals and meeting up with his new friends. He made so many friends. We were always welcomed with a smile when we came to visit. One added services that my dad loved to take advantage of is that they have a person on staff that will take patients to appointments or to run a quick errands. His name is Walter and he is incredible with the patients. I like to think that he and my dad shared a special bond. My dad would make sure that he booked Walter to bring him to get a haircut every two weeks. And if my dad would forget, Walter would remind him. All of the CNA's were incredible. Always checking to see if he needed anything. The facility has two rooms that families can use to hold gatherings. Our family took advantage of this several times. We got together for holidays in the Country Kitchen and we held a 90th birthday party for my dad in the Theater Room. All we had to do was bring the food and clean up. The staff is extremely accommodating and a pleasure to deal with. Unfortunately, my dad passed away recently and it saddens all of us that we will not be visiting Carmel Terrace as frequently as we had been. Once again the staff was very helpful helping us through the process of emptying his apartment. And the staff and residents that knew my dad made it a point to let us know how he had touched their lives. If you are thinking about an assisted living facility for yourself or your loved one, you could not pick a better place. Carmel Terrace provided my dad with an exceptional living experience during the last year and a half.

My mom has been living at Carmel Terrace for 6 months now and is so happy! She has three healthy meals a day, the main meal being served in the dining room with table service. The food is delicious and she'll usually bring juice or coffee and fruit back to her room. She has her own apartment style unit with a separate living area with small kitchen efficiency, a bedroom and full bath with walk-in shower (complete with pull cords). My mom participates in activities, including book club, knitting/crocheting, sing-a-longs, guest pianists, movie nights, etc. She has made friends with whom she can share her stories and listen to theirs. The staff at Carmel Terrace are amazing! They are willing to listen to any questions or issues, quick to make sure everyone is comfortable and well adjusted. We have peace of mind knowing she is safe, cared for and has friendships.

My father has been at Carmel Terrace for about 6 months. The process to book a spot for him was easy because of the thorough job done by the admissions office. We have found all of the staff to be very caring, efficient, and thorough. It was a hard decision for my father to move from his home, and I am confident that we made an excellent choice in Carmel Terrace.

It has been a year since we moved my mom to Carmel Terrace and it has turned out to be one of the best decisions that we have made. My mom has not only adapted to her new residence, she is thriving! The friendly staff, attentive service, accessible amenities and quality food menu have been better than we imagined. Thank you Carmel Terrace for being so welcoming and embracing my mom as you have!

Anyone who knows me, knows I can’t say enough good things about Carmel Terrace Assisted Living Community. I so enjoy the amazing staff, the awesome residents and the sense of community. The peaceful location and setting is beautiful, and the change of seasons can be seen from every room. The interesting speakers, entertainers and daily activities keeps the residents involved and active as much or as little as they chose. The personalized services, the staff interactions with their residents and their family members is such a pleasure to see. The connections I have developed with both the staff and residents have kept me coming back as a weekly volunteer for over 5 1/2 years!!!
