Stepping Toward a Cure for Alzheimer’s

Fall usually ushers in a trove of Northern California activities. This year, like many other annual fall events, protecting the health and safety of the community during the coronavirus pandemic has brought big changes to one — the 2020 Walk to End Alzheimer’s in Solano County.


Stay-at-Home and What to Do

Resident Nancy Wisner shares how a popular “Happiness” class changed her approach to life’s ups and downs in ways that she didn’t imagine.


Strengthening Community Connections

One of the greatest challenges of the Coronavirus pandemic is the ongoing need for physical distancing to prevent the spread. Our residents have found creative ways to bridge the isolation for themselves and others throughout the pandemic.


Community Center Improvements

Looking for silver linings has become a new hobby for many Americans as the coronavirus pandemic extends its grip on our lives and nation. At Paradise Valley Estates, we capitalized on the decreased foot traffic and moved up a planned refresh of the hub of our Life Plan Community: the Community Center.


Papers Are Delivered By Angels

During our spring shelter in place, many residents pitched in to make our lives more normal. They, and many others here at PVE, showed us that, together, we can make a difference.


Cocktails by Zoom

Since our shelter in place began, residents have found creative ways to stay connected with friends.


A Gift of Personal Time

Few people anticipated how greatly COVID-19 would impact life in 2020. Thankfully, the Paradise Valley Estates community and our 550 residents have weathered the situation exceptionally well.


Supplied by Creativity

Hand sanitizer production turned into short-term opportunity for Solano County’s Heretic Brewing when their taproom and restaurant closed due to the shelter in place order. Not only could the production help sustain operations and preserve staffing, the product was greatly needed as traditional hand sanitizers were still nearly impossible to find.


Guarding Health and Safety

Paradise Valley Estates team members have worked tirelessly during the COVID-19 crisis to help residents stay safe. One team that’s been crucial to the effort is the safety team that guards the community’s front gated entrance.


Bridging Gaps Created by Social Distancing

Paradise Valley Estates has quickly re-imagined and replaced longstanding systems, programs and activities and on the very shortest of timelines to keep residents safe.
