Heritage Residence sits in Grover Beach, California, at 1724 Baden Avenue, and it's a small, quiet place, which doesn't get too noisy because there's only space for four residents, so neighbors get a chance to really know each other, and staff tend to remember the little things like how someone takes their coffee or which chair they like best. The place works as a residential care home for the elderly-some folks call it a Board and Care Home-where people get help with bathing, dressing, transfers, medication, and other daily needs, and there's always staff available around the clock. Heritage Residence supports assisted living, memory care for people with Alzheimer's or dementia, and even some skilled nursing support, plus they make a point of helping people with things like advocacy for medical appointments, bill paying, and setting up power of attorney when it's needed.
Rooms come fully furnished, and folks can choose between private or semi-private, and the showers and baths fit wheelchairs, which makes things easier for people who need that. The whole place is set up to be safe, too, since there are emergency response systems, secure entry points, and surveillance cameras, and everything from the hallways to the bathrooms is aimed at making life simpler and safer. Meals happen in a dining room, and the kitchen team pays attention to allergies and special diets, even providing all-day dining for those who like to wander in and out, plus there are regular snacks and more social meals if someone wants company.
There's space indoors and outdoors, like walking paths, a garden, lounges, and activity rooms, so anyone who likes to sit outside or join a group activity will find something to do, and Heritage Residence keeps a full schedule of programs, like movie nights, devotional gatherings, and offsite trips-some folks really like the pet-friendly policy, which lets residents bring their animals if they want a bit of company and comfort. Housekeeping, laundry, transportation to medical appointments, and all those chores are included, so residents don't have to worry about keeping up a house. There's cable TV, Wi-Fi, and phones in the rooms, and the community's set up to be maintenance-free for folks who want independence without the hassle of repairs or yard work. Medical professionals visit, including podiatrists, and the on-site staff can handle high-acuity care, incontinence care, and coordinate other health services, plus they're always prepared to help with rehabilitation and wound care.
The move-in process comes with extra support so nobody feels lost when settling in, and residents and families get help finding the right care plan, which is always personalized, and there are even free support and consultation services to guide people through questions. Heritage Residence focuses on dignity, independence, and helping folks feel like they belong, so even though it's small, the sense of community runs deep and daily life moves at a comfortable, friendly pace, and even though it holds a community score of 5.5, the facility's main goal is to provide the right kind of support for every resident in a homelike setting, all under California state license #405801406 at a monthly cost of about $4,300.
