Community Care Center sits on La Mesa Blvd in La Mesa, California, runs every day from 9:00 in the morning until 9:00 at night, and has 115 beds for skilled nursing and sub-acute care, so there's room for a good number of residents who need various levels of help, and the facility's got a team of general physicians-Dr. Benjamin Goldenberg, Dr. Anmar Jalil, and Dr. Richard Tran-along with a Director of Nursing and a Medical Director who help oversee the care, and the staff includes registered nurses, CNAs, and LVNs who are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to provide both simple and complicated care. The center's privately held and employs between 51 and 200 people, blending clinical and holistic care while offering care for seniors through short-term post-acute stays, long-term care, and assistance with daily activities, all focusing on making it as comfortable as possible for every resident. Residents can expect management of constipation, dehydration, cachexia, asphyxia, hypoxemia, and even tricky issues like or rectal pain, headaches with migraine care, and adult failure to thrive, along with treatments for respiratory infections, abnormal thyroid, polyneuropathy from alcohol or drugs, fractures like clavicle and humerus, and chronic pulmonary heart diseases such as pulmonary hypertension.
Community Care Center offers skilled nursing as a specialty, with programs for behavioral health care, Alzheimer's and dementia memory care, cardiac rehab, ventilator care, and also wound care, IV therapy, and enteral feeding, which means residents with memory loss, wounds, or feeding issues can get specialized help around the clock, and for those needing extra support, there's a subacute care station to help people coming out of the hospital or needing intensive care. Therapy teams help residents with speech, occupational, and physical needs, aiming to help people regain the best level of function they can. Residents with breathing or cardiopulmonary problems get respiratory therapy, while others get clinical lab and mental health services. The staff works on personalized care plans for each resident, inviting families to ask about both available rooms and possible waitlisting through a simple process that keeps things organized.
Rooms come in 2-bed and 3-bed options, mainly designed to offer privacy while still keeping support close by, and while the building uses portable swamp coolers in the halls and doesn't have air conditioning in some areas, the facility makes up for it with outdoor common spaces for relaxing, strolling, or visiting with others in the sunlight. Housekeeping takes care of cleaning, and outpatient rehab helps folks get back on their feet if they've had hospital stays, plus there's structured activities, social events, and educational or recreational programs so people can make friends and keep up a good mood each day. Social services staff help with care planning and guidance during tricky transitions, and there's hospice services to focus on comfort and quality of life during serious or end-of-life moments.
Community Care Center accepts tours for those who want to see it in person, and there's always someone available to talk about room options and how the care team can handle different needs. The center's well-known for its dedicated and professional staff and keeps its focus on treating residents as individuals, working to help each person live life with the right care, a bit of comfort, and a sense of community.
