El Paso Senior AdvisorThe West Side runs from the Coronado and Mesa Street neighborhoods below the Franklin Mountains up the Upper Valley along the Rio Grande and out to the Northwest around Transmountain Road. It holds the largest cluster of assisted living in the city, including several of the bigger buildings on and around Resler Drive and Bartlett Drive.
The Hospitals of Providence Transmountain Campus serves the Northwest, while the Coronado area is about fifteen minutes from the Oregon Street hospitals. The trade-off is the mountain: a parent on the West Side and a daughter in the Northeast or East Side are separated by Transmountain Road or I-10, and that drive shapes many family decisions.
