Westfield Villa Gardens sits at 3863 West Ramsey St, Banning, CA, and it's a licensed Residential Care Elderly facility run by staff who speak Chinese, Filipino, Spanish, and English, holding 50 licensed beds and pet-friendly to both cats and dogs, so folks can keep some company close by. The community's designed for assisted living, independent living, memory care, and respite or short-term stays, with a secured memory care area in its own building and technology like bracelets with alarms to help prevent wandering so families can breathe a little easier. There are private bedrooms-some with kitchenettes-as well as private bathrooms and wheelchair accessible showers, letting residents have their own space while staff offer help with things like bathing, dressing, transfers, grooming, toileting, and reminders for daily activities or meds, including diabetic and incontinence care and medication management, even for those who need more supervision or have complex nursing or behavioral management needs, with a doctor on call and visiting nurses, podiatrists, physical, occupational, and speech therapists available as needed.
Meals are served daily, with options for kosher, vegetarian, low or no sodium, no sugar, and special dining programs tailored for residents, so individual diets are supported, and there's always a choice of what to eat. Housekeeping and laundry-including drycleaning-are handled by staff, and there's move-in coordination along with a 24-hour call system for safety, awake staff round-the-clock, and a secured property overall-no Type A or Type B citations and no substantiated complaints, with state visits completed on 2/8/2022 and 3/30/2022, so records show it's run with careful attention since being licensed more than 3 years ago under #331881248.
Residents can get out to enclosed courtyards, walk indoor walking paths, and spend time in both indoor and outdoor common areas, which include a beautiful garden, arts and crafts rooms, on-site barber/salon, and easy wheelchair access around the building. Activities keep things busy with Forever Fit stretching classes, light therapy programs, live music and dance or theater shows, movie nights, birthday parties, trips and field outings, and both onsite and offsite devotional services for spiritual needs, while full-time activity directors plan a range to meet different interests, with community-sponsored and resident-run programs together. Transportation comes complimentary or at cost, and the place is close to public transit which helps family visits and off-site outings, while smoking's allowed outside for those who want it.
Residents have access to independent and assisted living options based on their needs, with help available for aging in place as care needs change over time; the staff can support total care for people with complex health or behavior issues, including standby assistance, one-person or two-person transfers, use of mechanical lifts, and regular ADL support, and the place accepts residents who have more difficult behavior, so there are options for many situations. Meals are varied with special diets for health and taste, and the facility supports diabetic care-monitoring blood sugar and giving insulin injections if needed-without taking Medicare unless the license is certified for it. Westfield Villa Gardens offers long-term care, respite care, hospice care, and support for families, and it's recognized as trusted and family-friendly by many locals in the Banning area, serving as a continuing care retirement community (CCRC) for those looking to stay as their needs change over time.
