Vista Cove at Rancho Mirage sits in Rancho Mirage and has served seniors since 2003. The community offers assisted living, memory care, independent living, home care, and adult day services, helping people with different care needs stay in one place as things change. The sixty-six-room community's design features private and companion rooms, both furnished or not, grouped into small neighborhoods of 6-8 residents, so each area has its own dining room, living room, kitchen, and shared bathrooms, which feels much more like a home than a large facility and lets caregivers give more personal help. It's purpose-built for people living with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, with a whole secure memory care building, wander alert systems, bracelet technology, and iron fencing around the 2.2-acre property, which lets people walk safely in the gardens and enjoy mountain views.
The staff at Vista Cove includes two licensed nurses, a Medical Director, and caregivers with ongoing training in memory care, and it's known for having more staff for each resident than many other facilities, which helps a lot when residents need special care or have difficult behaviors. The facility's rated 3.4 out of 5 stars from five reviews, so people have had both good and average experiences there. There's always someone there to help, whether with daily living needs like showering, grooming, meals, medication, blood sugar, help moving, incontinence care, or reminders to use the restroom. They also offer diabetic care, handle aggressive or wandering behaviors, and give personalized plans for each resident. The Namaste Program helps residents connect with their environment, the LEAP Life Enrichment Program keeps people busy, and activities happen daily for all stages of memory loss, from personal and small group activities to themed events and reminiscence therapy.
Respite care and a special Day Break™ program let families get a break or bring loved ones for half or full days of care and activities, even without long stays. Residents can get beauty care at the salon or barbershop, see a dentist, podiatrist, therapist or hygienist in-house, and receive help with all types of personal and health care. The kitchen serves three meals and snacks each day, with kosher and vegetarian options, and special diets are available. There's daily housekeeping, laundry, and linen care, plus emergency call systems, smoke alarms, and fire sprinklers in every room, so people feel safe. Devotional services, cultural and social activities, and walking trails let residents find comfort however they like. With secure, lush gardens, bright rooms, and a friendly, experienced staff, Vista Cove at Rancho Mirage focuses on comfort, safety, and care, especially for people with memory loss.
