Galicia's Tulip Care Home #2, located in a peaceful neighborhood in Hayward, CA, provides assisted living in a private house setting for up to six residents, where the facility holds a State of California license, with the numbers 19200544 and 011441162, so it's always following those important rules, and the setting helps seniors who need daily help but don't need the level of care you'd find at a nursing home. The home has both private and semi-private rooms, many with plenty of closets and safe designs, so people can settle in, and it always feels like a real home with furnished spaces and a home-like feeling everywhere you look. The small size means staff give lots of personalized care for each resident, especially for those who need help with activities like bathing, showering, dressing, or moving around, and they even handle medication management and help with transfers or getting up and down, which is needed for people who might not be as steady on their feet or who need help with hygiene throughout the day.
The home has 24-hour caregiver support, with trained staff including RNs, LVNs, and CNAs, and they all assist with personal care, meal preparation with three home-cooked meals each day that can be adjusted for special diets like for diabetes or clinical needs, as well as help with light housekeeping and laundry chores, so residents usually don't have to worry about those daily tasks anymore. The facility is licensed as an AIC Residential Care Facility for the Elderly and as an RCFE, and it's equipped to care for people with dementia, has a hospice waiver, and serves older adults who don't need round-the-clock medical care but are safer with regular support.
Residents here enjoy amenities aimed at comfort and well-being, like ADA-compliant bathrooms, a wellness program, secured grounds, gardens, a spacious library, movie nights, recreation rooms, and large decks where people can enjoy some sunshine, plus massage therapy is available, and there's access to a barber or salon and even a mobile hairdresser. Fall prevention classes, fitness programs, and exercise or music therapy happen regularly, so folks can stay active in ways that fit their abilities, and the activities schedule often includes animal therapy, crafts, tabletop games, evening social events, arranged outings like shopping or trips to spiritual services, and regular transportation to medical appointments to take some stress off families. The grounds have safe walking paths and peaceful outdoor space, and there's parking for families who visit.
There's an emergency alert system and panic buttons for extra safety, and supervision is always available, even for non-ambulatory residents or those needing support because of Parkinson's, cancer, or other illnesses. Services also include management for disease-specific needs, coordination for speech and occupational therapy, and support for mild cognitive impairment and memory care, and the caregiver team can help with things like toileting, grooming, and support with getting up and lying down, so seniors who live there can keep as much independence as possible while getting the care they need. There's also respite care for short stays, as well as the option for long-term living. The care team helps with VA Benefits or Aides & Attendance Program, so veterans might get support to help pay for care, and the whole environment is set up so that seniors get both social activities and attentive help, but without feeling like life is all medical or on a strict schedule.
