Wellness Care Senior Living at Ojai sits in Oak View and provides a variety of housing options like semi-private rooms, studios, and private apartments with bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and phone lines, and while residents can choose furnished or unfurnished, the focus stays on comfort and personal safety. The community offers assisted living and memory care for folks with Alzheimer's disease and dementia, with care plans tailored to each person's needs and plenty of help with bathing, dressing, moving from bed to wheelchair, medication, diabetes care, and more, plus support for folks who don't walk on their own. There's a full team of 24-hour awake staff and nurses, with 12-16 hours of nursing care each day, and the staff knows how to use mechanical lifts and help with both one-person and two-person transfers for those who need extra assistance, and the resident call system runs day and night for safety. Meals come from the dining room with all-day restaurant-style dining, chef-prepared dishes, and special menus for allergies or diabetes, and each meal aims to be healthy and enjoyable, and if you're just staying a short while, there's respite care for temporary needs.
Seniors can join lots of group and individual activities set up every day like game nights, art programs, music group, exercise classes, offsite devotional services, and even walking outside through gardens or marked paths, plus the community keeps an updated scrapbook that shows activities and holidays, which helps families stay connected and see what's going on. The pet therapy program brings animals around, including Bella the Kitty, and the movie theater shows group films while the library and arts-and-crafts rooms offer quieter choices. There's a mental wellness program, fitness room, spa, social activities, and holiday events that encourage residents to engage their minds and bodies, and the staff works hard to support folks at every stage, whether they need lots of help or just a little. Housekeeping, dry cleaning, laundry for both clothes and linens, and chef-prepared meals come standard, and if residents need to go to appointments or want to go out, the free transportation service or concierge can help set things up. Memory care services help with reminders to use the restroom, handle incontinence, and support seniors with dementia, and the staff receives specialized memory care and ethics training so they're ready for the more complicated needs of Alzheimer's care.
