Merced Residential Care, also known as Merced Three Residential Care Facility, serves seniors looking for a quiet and homelike place with help for daily living, long-term care, assisted living, memory care, and respite care, and you'll find that they have a range of services all the way from lighter support to heavier, more hands-on help for those that need it, and they're licensed as a Residential Care Elderly facility with 33 beds, located in a spot that's close to medical offices, local attractions, and bus lines for easy access. Residents live in semi-private or memory care rooms-with average costs around $3,600 per month for a shared room or $5,200 for a memory care one-bedroom-and the property's got wheelchair accessible spaces, accessible showers, outdoor and indoor common areas, and meals with options for Kosher or vegetarian diets, and they have activities onsite and offsite plus devotional services available.
Staff remain on-site around the clock, fully trained to help with things like bathing, dressing, medication, nutrition, hygiene, housekeeping, and mobility, and you'll see that some residents may do most things themselves, while others need two people or even a special lift for transfers, and they help with bowel or bladder incontinence-whether it's reminders or full hands-on help-and diabetic care is included with blood sugar checks and insulin injections being done, though sliding scale therapy may not be, and for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, there are specialized activities and safety protocols to manage wandering, exit-seeking, or behavior issues, with behavioral care services available as well as a nurse on staff and visiting therapists like podiatrists, speech, occupational, and physical therapists.
Merced Residential Care runs as a homelike community that's designed so people can safely age in place, staying even if their needs become more complex, and that means they'll help keep residents comfortable and involved with structured programs for socializing and entertainment and educational things, aiming to keep everyone as independent and at ease as possible, all while treating people with kindness and respect, and making room for both new friendships and family visits. Transportation can be arranged either complimentary or for a fee, and hospice services are also available if ever needed. The facility goes by a few different names-Merced Residential Care, Merced Hampshire, Merced Broad, Merced Girard-and operates at several locations in San Francisco, all under proper licensing.
