Floras Home Care sits in Citrus Heights, CA, and has a small, close-knit setting with six assisted living units, which makes things quieter and a bit easier to manage for both the residents and the staff, and you'll find it at 6849 Larkspur Ave. The community supports seniors who need daily help with living, including bathing, dressing, moving around, and managing medications, and they're equipped to handle more complex things like diabetic care, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, Parkinson's disease support, and even rehabilitation services after an illness or injury. The care staff stays awake day and night, and there's a nurse and doctor on call, plus scheduled doctor and podiatrist visits, so help's always close by if there's a need.
Residents get three meals each day, with snacks in between, and the kitchen staff can make pureed meals if needed. The housekeepers handle laundry and tidying up, and there's an on-site beauty salon and barber for haircuts. Floras Home Care has private ADA-compliant baths, plenty of closets, studio and semi-private room options, and lots of grab bars and equipment like mechanical lifts for folks who need help moving or have limited mobility; you'll see both indoor and outdoor common spaces, an exercise and fitness room, library, small theater, parking for visitors, and secure grounds to keep everyone safe. There's a big focus on memory care, with staff trained to help residents stay calm and comfortable, and the building is secure to prevent wandering, which helps reduce confusion for Alzheimer's and dementia patients.
They offer many activities that keep people busy and connected, such as arts and crafts, bingo, cards, devotional services, outings offsite, and activities tailored for people facing memory challenges. Pets are welcome, so folks can keep a cat or dog in their room, but there's no smoking in any of the private or public indoor spaces. There's transportation help for going to appointments, and families can look into temporary respite care if they need a short-term stay.
People say the staff are helpful, joyful, and kind, and there's a cheerful atmosphere, which is probably why they have a 4.5-star rating. They provide regular health monitoring, can help with transferring for people who need support with one or two helpers, administer insulin, watch blood sugar, and do bowel and bladder care for those who need it, though sliding scale insulin therapy isn't always available. Floras Home Care is a licensed Residential Care Elderly facility, welcoming folks who want a long-term option instead of moving to a nursing home, and don't take Medicare unless they're certified to do so. Each service, whether light or medium care, is matched with what a resident needs, keeping attention on comfort, safety, and independence every day.
