Country Haven Assisted Living sits out in the Sierra Mountains, and it's a quiet spot surrounded by nature where the air feels cleaner and the view from the rooms is something people talk about. This small place, only about 15 beds, keeps things personal, and two Registered Nurses own and run the place, so you know the staff has some good experience behind them. They've got 24-hour staff to help with things like bathing, dressing, and taking medicine, and nurses are on the property to give care or monitor health needs, from medication support to help with incontinence or non-ambulatory care, and they even offer radiation and chemo treatments for folks who need that kind of ongoing attention. The facility is both a convalescent home and a continuing care community, so it works for people who might be there long-term, or just for rehab or short stays with their hospice and respite care.
Country Haven Assisted Living isn't a big, fancy place, but it covers a lot-there are assisted living options, independent living, nursing care, and memory care for seniors with dementia or Alzheimer's, though memory care does cost quite a bit more. Everyone gets their own apartment-like room with cable TV, emergency call systems, and some rooms have nice views over the garden or outdoor seating areas. The place is gated, has a parking lot if anyone drives, and there's transportation for doctor's visits, church, errands, or just shopping trips close by.
The staff are known to be friendly and actually take time with residents, and there's always someone available. Residents can bring in small pets or set up pet visits, which is good for people who like animals. The home handles housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, and room service, and meals are included in the dining room, with guest meals for family visits. Menus focus on nutritious food with healthy snacks and can be changed for special diets like for diabetes or high blood pressure.
There are things to do most days, with daily programs, movie showings, music and art plans, and you'll find game rooms, a reading room, fitness spaces, and organized activities like arts and crafts, pet therapy, and board games. People can relax in the jacuzzi or steam room, get their hair done at the onsite salon/barbershop, or just spend time outside on the patios or in the garden. The property's designed for active seniors, usually folks 55 or 62 and up, and a lot of people who live there seem to appreciate the sense of community-everyone kind of looks out for each other.
Everything's licensed and regulated, with a license number 57002735. The community's small size means residents get more personal attention, and there are evening social events, music therapy, and even outdoor trips when the weather cooperates. Country Haven Assisted Living scores well on their Seniorly Community Score system, and the people there, both staff and residents, seem happy with the care and the peace of the mountain setting.
