Our Services at El Descanso
The decision to change your loved one’s living arrangement is not an easy one. We all would love to stay in our own home, surrounded by the familiar rhythms, environment and memories of a lifetime. But oftentimes, health and safety concerns make it necessary to explore alternatives.
As a small assisted living home, we provide a level of personalized care not found in “big box” facilities. We know our residents by name and develop close, caring relationships with them in a safe and healthy setting. You’ll find a home-like atmosphere here, where we understand and celebrate the meaning and value of every person.
No one likes change. I understand that. And as you continue to explore options for your loved one, I am here to help.
