Moving to an assisted living facility can feel intimidating, overwhelming, and just plain hard. It can mean going through decades of household items, saying goodbye to a family home, and the end of a chapter. It is also is the beginning of an awesome new journey with new opportunities and new adventures waiting each day. Many assisted living communities today offer a continuum of care with services ranging from independent living, assistance with activities of daily living, and memory care. This allows residents to stay in a community, even if needs should change over time.


If you’re looking for a retirement, assisted living, and care home, you need to put in a sufficient amount of research to find someone that matches your expectations. You need to go through reviews you find online and speak to people who’ve worked with them. At The Retreat at Church Ranch, we are confident about the services we provide and will not shy away from giving you references. Besides, we will be happy to tell you why we are the top name in retirement and assisted living.


We have been in the retirement, assisted living, and care home industry for many years and the vast majority of our clients are extremely happy. If you’re looking for a retirement, assisted living, and care home, here are a few reasons why we believe you should pick us over the rest of our competition.


Family-owned business with stable staff and a mature business model

There are many reasons why a family-owned and operated community might have a much more personal, homelike, and comfortable feeling than a big conglomerate corporation. At a family-owned community, it’s usually not just about business. We are more resident-centered and employee-centered as far as the focus goes. Family-owned communities care just as much about the staff, which could be brothers, aunts, and cousins, as they do the residents. And in our experience, happy staff means happy residents. Our mission is to serve with love everyone involved, which includes the resident, their family, and the staff that provide care.


Motto of dedication

Our motto is “A lovely place for lovely people.” This means that we don’t just fill rooms for revenue, we admit residents and families that contribute to our community. At our family-owned and operated facility, the team members and care partners are empowered to make decisions and respond attentively to resident and family needs. Likewise, our residents are encouraged to comfortably step out of their comfort zones and live life to the fullest.


Excellent COVID-19 protocols

Since the initial cases of COVID-19 were identified, the unique vulnerability of older adults has been painfully demonstrated with several nursing home–associated outbreaks. As a consequence, strict protocols have been put into place in assisted living facilities. As the name implies, assisted living facilities to provide older adults with a range of assistance for activities of daily living. We make sure we enact strict isolation policies to protect the health of residents and staff. We do an excellent job in the area of infection control.


Significant remodel

To create a warm and welcoming environment in an assisted living facility, the facility needs to be not only beautiful and elegant but also strategically applied to fit the needs of the residents. Natural light brightens a room and makes it more welcoming and cheerier, and helps improve sleep cycles. Exposure to natural light, through skylights or picture windows, can increase exposure to Vitamin D, helping to reduce ailments like Osteoporosis and lower blood pressure. Keeping all this in mind, we just completed a significant remodel and are delighted to present a modern, bright and beautiful décor both inside and outside.

Do You Need To Improve Your Self Esteem?
March 10, 2025
None of us can skip communication in our daily lives. Whether at work or at home, we talk with others in the hope of getting our needs met and sharing a connection. Some people are natural and open communicators while others need some help along the way. Here are some suggestions to ease the way and help everyone get along a little bit better. Assume Positive Intentions – when talking with family, friends or coworkers, try to avoid becoming immediately defensive. Believe the other party is working to improve the situation and striving for a positive outcome. Although it can be hard, try to be receptive to the idea someone is trying to convey even if they don’t go about it in the best way. Be Clear and Concise – take a moment to prepare your thoughts before speaking or responding. For clarity, limit yourself to dealing with one individual topic at a time. Also, using too many words or fancy language can distract from your intended message and the listener may stop listening. Use Active Listening Skills - which means you listen to understand what is being said and not in order to respond. Paraphrase back to the speaker what you thought they said to make sure you understand before you form your response. Ask open ended questions, not yes or no questions. Watch Nonverbal Communication – these include facial expression, gestures and tone of voice. Be aware of the message you’re sending, such as crossed arms which convey defensiveness or lack of openness. Don’t look at your watch or phone which conveys impatience or the desire to be elsewhere. Use a calm reassuring tone of voice, even when emotions are running high. Email and Texts are Tricky: Use Caution – as these have no tone of voice, they are easier to misconstrue. Whenever possible speak to someone in person or by phone. Written messages are one of the most important times to assume the best intentions of the other party.
