Raya's Paradise, Inc. has specialized in caring for older adults since 1991, focusing on those needing extra help because of dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or memory problems, and also offering assisted living and retirement home services in West Hollywood and Los Angeles, California. This group runs several small, boutique-style residential care homes, each with no more than 6 residents, so people get more personal attention, and its single-story buildings are built for easy access. Some homes are on North Stanley Avenue, and others can be found on North Sierra Bonita Avenue, North Gardner Street, La Jolla Avenue, and Avenida Calafia, close to shops and restaurants, which gives residents a chance to stay involved in the neighborhood.
Each home is a licensed Residential Care Elderly facility, with private or semi-private rooms that have private bathrooms, and every resident has care tailored for their own needs, preferences, and diet. Raya's Paradise helps with daily living tasks like bathing, dressing, and getting around, and gives reminders for medication, while handling care for diabetes, incontinence, and high blood pressure. Trained staff-speaking Spanish, Russian, and Armenian-keep a close watch, with a ratio of one staff member for every three residents. House staff supervise memory care and high acuity services, and use a WanderGuard system for those who wander because of memory loss.
Residents eat together, enjoying two entrees with every meal, and get choices fitting special dietary needs. Activities range from art and music programs like Music and Memory, to cooking in a therapy kitchen, and group events and outings, hoping to keep everyone active and making friends. There's also a Life Enrichment Program which helps with memory, physical skills, and creative work. Raya's Paradise has a family-style, home-like feel, and offers extra services like care at home, short term stays for respite or recovery after hospital stays, and hospice, including end-of-life support for symptoms, emotions, and spiritual needs, always with respect and dignity.
The community doesn't take Medicare unless officially certified, and the adult care homes can serve 10 or fewer people in each house. Full-time and short stays get the same supportive atmosphere. There's non-skilled care in assisted living, and support for people who want to keep independence while getting some help. The buildings are comfortable and modern, mixing luxury and comfort, and have scenic touches and a full-service spa. A special dementia and memory care program offers safe environments for those with memory loss, and a disabled van helps with rides to doctor appointments. Raya's Paradise stays centered on helping seniors feel comfortable and supported, while giving families peace of mind.
