At Lantern Crest Senior Living in Santee, we provide a safe, welcoming environment where seniors receive the personalized support they need while enjoying a fulfilling and independent lifestyle.

What Is Elder Care?

Elder care refers to the wide range of services designed to support older adults as they age. It can include help with daily activities, medical monitoring, social engagement, and wellness programs. The type and level of care provided depend on each individual’s unique needs, ensuring that seniors receive the right amount of support without losing their independence.
