Eskaton Village Placerville

I would not recommend someone moving into eskaton in the privately owned homes or cottages if they can potentially need medical monitoring. Eskaton claims to provide each resident a pendant that can summon emergency services. And that's true. However, eskaton will not call the emergency contact when the pendant is activated. The other day my mother fell and couldn't get up and she used her pendant to get assistance but I was never notified. If she had had a more serious medical issue I would have never known and I would have never known even where she went. Eskaton management won't return my calls and also won't do anything to ensure that emergency contacts are notified in an emergency. Also there is no Knox box program. They claim to have one but it's actually done through volunteers and in my mother's case the firefighters had to bust the door down because the keys didn't work. So everything that eskaton claims to sell they do not provide.

First class facility is all I can say. Not just the building, but the staff included. Kind, caring, courteous at all levels from drivers to management. Now the food. The best available. Phil is excellent. Surroundings are great. Especially the remnants of the old gold mining days. Hydraulic mining.

My mom lived at Placerville Eskaton for 10 months before her passing. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Placerville Eskaton. Every single one of the staff members are kind, fun and helpful. They keep their residents busy with fun activities and field trips. My mom thought the food was great! The grounds and facility are always kept so beautiful. I would highly recommend Eskaton, and if I ever need a facility like this, Placerville Eskaton will definitely be my choice. Sally Moore

My dad lived at Eskaton Placerville for 3 years: 1 year in the cottages and 2 years in assisted living. Not only is it a beautiful setting but the facility was always super clean and the staff were very professional, caring, and always made an effort to connect with my dad and the other residents who live there. My dad enjoyed the various activities and themed holiday events. I would highly recommend Eskaton Placerville to anyone looking for the best overall environment and care in a Senior Living environment.

I’ve lived here at EVP for about two years and it’s been an absolute joy, every minute of it. Everything about being here is delightful. I haven’t met a neighbor I didn’t like, as everyone is so kind and pleasant all of the time, from neighbors to staff. I can also say I’ve never had a meal I didn’t enjoy, the options and availability in our dining, along with the food being so consistent and well made, it’s all fabulous and I’m so thankful for it all. The activities and options here are also wonderful, from group shopping trips to swimming, but my absolutely favorite activity here would have to be the live performed concerts we have regularly. The variety in music and genres, there’s never been a performer I didn’t enjoy. It’s so wonderful here and I can absolutely say that This is my home, through and through, and I cannot imagine living anywhere else. I am very thankful and my family and I found this place for me.
