Designs 1st

Designs 1st, a building design and construction consulting firm was founded in 1991. The company originally specialized in distinctive custom homes in Northern California; completing design and construction on hundreds of homes, apartments, and light commercial projects. By providing innovative design, construction documents, and comprehensive construction  management,  Designs 1st has proven to be an industry leader in design/build for Elder Care Facilities.

Acadia Elder Care, was formed having recognized how most elder care facilities inadequately addressed the special needs of residents. Acadia Elder Care has identified a rapidly growing trend of seniors that is dominated by non-ambulatory, bedridden, and issues of memory care. In addition to providing the needs of the residents we offer an innovative boutique-spa atmosphere. The alternative for many seniors has been skilled nursing facilities that are prohibitively expensive, more so with the recent reductions available in government benefits.

Our capability to design and build, as well simplify start-up with governing agencies and operations of elder care facilities gives Acadia Elder Care a position for continued growth and success.
