El Castillo is a LifeCare Community located in downtown Santa Fe, offering a range of living options including independent living, assisted living, and nursing care. The community is praised for its beautiful setting, friendly atmosphere, and numerous amenities such as swimming pools, a bistro, and a daily happy hour. The dining experience is highlighted as a positive aspect, with good food available through a buffet or menu options. The facility is described as clean and comfortable, though some find the rooms a bit dated. The nursing care is noted to be comprehensive, with a favorable staff-to-resident ratio compared to other facilities. However, some reviews express concerns about the management being profit-driven and the staff being overworked. Access to certain amenities is limited for residents with mobility issues, and the facility is considered expensive, making it less accessible for those with limited financial means. There are plans for expanding independent living units, but the community is criticized for not being more inclusive of diverse cultures and socioeconomic backgrounds. Overall, El Castillo is seen as a desirable place to live for those who can afford it, offering a comfortable and supportive environment, but it faces criticism for its exclusivity and the quality of care in its assisted living and nursing sections.

November 2022

El Castillo is a great place to live and work. The benefits are unmatched ANYWHERE, and the pay is competitive. The main challenge we all deal with is being short staffed from time to time but that is happening everywhere these days. Aside from that, I wouldn't change a thing.
