River Valley Care Center

Nestled in the agricultural heart of California's Sacramento Valley, River Valley Care Center at 9000 Larkin Road offers compassionate skilled nursing care to residents of Live Oak and the surrounding Sutter County communities. Operated by Pacs Group, a trusted name in post-acute and long-term care across California, this facility upholds a commitment to clinical excellence, dignity, and personalized attention for every resident and their family. Live Oak is a tight-knit community with a peaceful, small-town character that many seniors find deeply comforting. The surrounding Sacramento Valley landscape is defined by wide open skies, productive farmland, and the gentle contours of the nearby Sutter Buttes — one of California's most iconic geological landmarks and often called the world's smallest mountain range. The tranquil setting is ideal for seniors seeking a calm environment without sacrificing access to essential services. Families can feel confident knowing that Adventist Health Rideout in Marysville — a full-service regional hospital with a robust network of specialists — is located approximately 10 miles away. Fremont Medical Center in neighboring Yuba City provides additional acute care options just a short drive west. For everyday errands and family visits, Yuba City offers Raley's grocery stores, Walmart, local restaurants along Plumas Street, and a lively Saturday Certified Farmers Market that reflects the valley's rich agricultural heritage. The Feather River, which winds through the region, and local parks such as Live Oak Community Park give residents and visiting family members pleasant outdoor spaces to enjoy. The area's warm summers and mild winters make year-round outdoor activities accessible to those who are able. At River Valley Care Center, Pacs Group's operational philosophy centers on restorative care, whether residents are recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or requiring long-term nursing support. Skilled nursing teams work alongside therapists and support staff to create individualized care plans that reflect each resident's goals and medical needs. Families throughout Live Oak, Yuba City, Marysville, Gridley, and Sutter County have long trusted River Valley Care Center as a reliable partner in their loved one's health journey.
