Ivy Cottages Iii

Ivy Cottages III sits in Fountain Valley, California, close to Mile Square Park and the local hospital, and is licensed as a Residential Care Elderly facility with beds for up to six residents, which means it really feels like a small home, and there's a good amount of attention to everyone. Local government agencies, like the Department of Aging and Veteran's Services, make sure the place stays safe and follows the rules, and you can see that in little details like their alarmed security gates and clean, spacious rooms that bring in a lot of light, with showers and wheelchair-accessible layouts to help folks get around safely and easily. The rooms are private and cozy with a comfortable feel, and the building's got big outdoor patios and landscaped gardens, so residents can walk around, sit outside to relax, or join morning group walks and exercises when the weather's nice, and there are plenty of indoor spaces too for arts and crafts, educational workshops, music therapy, and board games, which help people stay active and enjoy themselves, all at their own pace. Ivy Cottages III focuses on assisted living and memory care, including care for people who need help with diabetes or high acuity needs, and services cover personal care, skilled nursing, home care, and help with medications-there are licensed doctors who visit, a nurse available 24 hours a day, and other specialists like podiatrists and even beauticians stopping by, all supported by a trained team who knows what they're doing. The kitchen provides meals prepared to order, following doctors' instructions when special diets (including kosher meals) are recommended, and the staff takes care of housekeeping and laundry, so residents can enjoy clean and tidy spaces without worrying about chores. There's a real community feeling and a focus on each person's needs, and group meals, devotional gatherings, and trips out add social and spiritual variety to the days, while transportation and parking, even complimentary rides, make getting to appointments or outings easier. The setting is small and supportive, like an Adult Care Home or Board and Care, so it's easier for residents to keep their independence while staying safe, and since there are only six beds, the staff can pay close attention to everyone. They accept private pay and can offer respite or short-term stays too, which is helpful for families who need a break or are looking for a bit of extra help from time to time.
