M & L South Bay Maxi Care sits in a quiet Los Osos neighborhood at 1820 Mountain View Drive, where you'll find a small residential care home designed for six seniors who need help with daily living, so there's a real sense of community and it doesn't get too loud or overwhelming. Residents get help with things like bathing, dressing, grooming, getting in and out of bed, and managing their medicine, and the staff keeps a trained eye out all day and night. Meals get cooked at home and suit most dietary needs, plus staff takes care of laundry and cleaning, and there's a dining room for shared meals, which helps everyone feel a bit more connected. Folks can pick private or shared rooms, and they're encouraged to decorate with their own things from home, which brings a bit of comfort.
Care plans are set up to match each person's health needs, whether that's for arthritis, diabetes, heart problems, cancer, depression, Parkinson's, memory loss, surgery recovery, and a few other conditions, so everyone gets what they really need. M & L South Bay Maxi Care covers assisted living, memory care for dementia or Alzheimer's, board and care, respite stays for short-term help, independent living, and hospice support when it's needed, which means there's a lot of flexibility for changes as time goes by. Nurses and doctors make visits right in the home, so residents can get medical support without having to travel. Incontinence care is also available for those who need it.
Social life matters here, so the staff plans simple group activities every day-movie nights, music, creative projects, gentle workouts, and even book time or community events-so there's something to look forward to even if someone isn't too outgoing. There are walking paths, gardens, recreational rooms, a spa, a steam area or health room, and even a barber and beauty parlor. Residents can visit with friends in the evenings, and the team arranges rides for doctor's visits or errands. The property's cozy but well-kept, with emergency alert systems for safety, and the staff reacts quickly if anyone needs help. Residents also get support with bills and medical appointments, and there's a care advisor team to help with questions over phone, message, or email.
M & L South Bay Maxi Care is certified by the California Department of Social Services (license #405800269) and is set up to provide care day and night. Monthly prices start at $5,500 and can vary depending on the room choice and how much care is needed, and there's a move-in help service to make the transition smoother. Most communication is in English, and the staff has training in supporting many different physical and cognitive needs. Reviews from families mention the friendly environment and dedicated care. Overall, this small home tries to give residents the help and social connection they need while keeping their routines as familiar as possible.
