Ingleside Assisted Living Inc runs a few assisted living homes in Atascadero, CA, including Ingleside by the Lake, Ingleside Park, and the main office on West Front Road, and these places all focus on helping seniors live with dignity, safety, and some independence, and nothing ever feels like a hospital, more like a regular home where people can decorate their own suites and settle in with their own things. They're fully licensed for senior care, and their licenses-#405850249, #405850247, and #405850254-show that they meet state requirements for staffing, safety, and health. The maximum number of residents at each site is 16, which keeps things on the smaller and more personal side, and a high caregiver-to-resident ratio-one caregiver for every five residents-means staff spend more time with residents and less doing day-to-day chores. They offer all sorts of help with daily activities like dressing, bathing, toileting, and grooming, as well as medication management, help with hearing aids and glasses, and personal pendants for calling staff quickly. Nurses and physicians visit the homes, there are occupational and physical therapists, podiatrists, hospice workers, and even dentists and hair dressers available if people need them, though some services are at extra cost. There's always someone awake and around to help, day or night, and they offer nutritious meals, even kosher options, diabetic care, and incontinence care-though folks bring their own supplies.
They're known for supported independence, and the staff works to help seniors stay together with friends and active with activities, whether it's cognitive games for memory care residents, games for fun, exercise, or social events, and devotional services happen both on and offsite. Ingleside Assisted Living Inc specializes in memory care and dementia services, with secure areas and engaging programs, all focused on keeping people safe and involved. Transportation is available at cost for things like appointments, and hospice and respite care are options for short-term or end-of-life needs. The homes feature wheelchair accessible showers, private baths, and both indoor and outdoor common spaces where residents can gather, visit with staff, and relax. They've never had a Type A or Type B citation and no supported complaints, with the latest health and safety inspection done in May 2022 before their most recent license was issued in June 2022. The setting encourages residents to keep their independence where they can, but they get help when they need it, and it's a community with local owners who take pride in knowing what seniors in Atascadero want and need. The homes are suited for people with simple to complex needs, including non-ambulatory seniors and those with serious memory loss, and there's always attention on health, respect, and keeping everyone as comfortable as possible.
