Mag's Rest Home sits at 6002 Bellhaven Ave in the Cabrillo area of Newark, California, in Alameda County, and has space for up to eight residents, which helps folks get to know each other, and the staff here always seems warm, friendly, and helpful, from what people say. The place is licensed as a Residential Care Elderly facility under California license #11440810, and the state's Department of Social Services regulates it, which gives families some peace of mind. The home focuses on assisted living and personalized care, so people who need help with moving around, getting dressed, spoon feeding, memory care for Alzheimer's or dementia, Parkinson's care, or even hospice and respite care can get support for their daily chores and health needs while still keeping their independence as much as possible.
The community allows pets, which makes it feel more like home, and there are different living options like communal areas, one-bedroom suites, and studios, depending on what each person needs or wants. You'll find home health services, an on-call nurse for medical needs, and 24/7 emergency response just in case, with trained caregivers who handle daily activities like showering, dressing, washing, and grooming, with special help for things like insulin injections or two-person transfers if that's needed. The staff can also set up detailed care plans that include meals, medication supervision, and lots of activities, with three cooked meals every day, and the kitchen can adjust menus for conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure, all planned by chefs and meal planners who think about vitamins and balance.
Residents have plenty to keep them busy and connected, since Mag's Rest Home runs many activities for social, mental, physical, and emotional health, and the calendar might have things like music therapy, gardening, pet therapy, board games, movies, outdoor sitting areas, exercise sessions, wellness activities, arts and crafts, scheduled daily events, outings, and religious trips upon request, all with transportation arranged when needed. Amenities you'll find around the property can include a community kitchen, facility-wide wifi, games room, arts and craft classes, pharmacy services, a flat screen TV, reading room, private dining area, some landscaped gardens, bistro, a wellness room, perhaps a barber or traveling stylist, sauna or hot tub, fitness and recreation rooms, massage therapy services, weight management help, and a focus on comfort and safety. You can tour the facility and see the shared spaces, meet staff and residents, and find out more about their so-named programs or services if you're interested, but there's no BBB accreditation at this time, though they do work under all the needed care and foster care licenses in this industry. People here say the atmosphere is joyful and kind, and the place tries to make everyone feel safe, cared for, and at home, with the support and independence that's wanted.
