A Caring Touch Board And Care sits in a quiet, single-story house in Chatsworth, California, near Mason Park and some shopping centers, and the atmosphere feels comfortable and homey, the kind of place where neighbors wave if you go out to the garden or stroll the outdoor courtyard, where there are fruit trees and spots to relax outside. This is a small, residential care home for up to six people, and the staff can help with bathing, dressing, getting up, moving around, and taking care of personal needs like incontinence or medication reminders, and there's special care for people with memory problems like Alzheimer's and for those who need diabetic support, including help with insulin. The caregivers are trained to look after seniors with dementia, and they use dedicated routines and simple brain exercises every day to help keep minds active, which seems to help with focus and bring a bit of joy to daily life, and they keep careful records to make sure each person gets the right kind of care as needs change.
There's help for people who need more support over time, so folks don't have to move out if their health goes up and down, and it's also set up for people who sometimes wander or have trouble with mood swings. The home uses a secured system and electronic alerts to keep everyone safe. The staff speaks English, Spanish, and Filipino, and they're around all day and night. A certified nurse practitioner owns the place and can check on medical problems, which helps families feel reassured. Respite care is available for those times when a family caregiver needs a break, and hospice support is there when needed. Residents get all-day access to meals-restaurant-style dining, special foods like kosher, vegan, gluten-free, and they'll serve meals in private dining rooms or even to your room if preferred. There are different activities like art classes, trivia games, gardening, movies, music, a piano, and live performances every so often, plus a full-time activity leader who tries to get everyone involved, even if only for a short time each day.
Housekeeping, laundry, help with errands, and transportation to appointments or shopping are included, and there's parking if someone has a car or visitors come. Safety features like emergency call systems and bathrooms with wheelchair access are standard, and rooms come furnished, with cable TV, Wi-Fi, and small kitchenettes if wanted. Daily devotional services are available both in the home and sometimes outside, and holidays or birthdays get celebrated too, making life feel a bit more connected. Families say the staff handles mood changes and challenges with patience and care, and the home keeps a warm, friendly feeling, always aiming to help residents stay as independent as possible. A Caring Touch Board And Care regularly gets top reviews, with families mentioning the clean and spacious setting, the kindness of the staff, and the personalized care. It's a newly remodeled home with a focus on privacy, safety, and maintaining each person's dignity, while keeping things as much like home as possible. Virtual tours and in-person visits are offered for those wanting to know more or see how things work before moving in.
