Ambrosia Senior Care sits in a quiet residential area at 1176 Westwood Dr, San Jose, California, right in the 95125 ZIP code, and the place holds a license number 435202338 showing they're fully approved for elder care, with a licensed capacity for up to 6 seniors so things stay calm and personal, not too crowded, and people start to know each other before too long. Residents live in assisted living units set up as studio suites, 1-bedroom apartments, or shared configurations, so folks have choices about where and how they want to settle in, and rooms are available in both semi-private and suite setups, with prices starting at $4,200 per month, which covers daily needs and basic support. This is a Residential Care Elderly facility, which goes by names like Adult Foster Home, Personal Care Home, or Assisted Living Home, depending on different places, but here in San Jose they're known for taking care of seniors in a calm home-style setting, focusing on long-term care.
Staff at Ambrosia Senior Care stay present around the clock, and they look after all the common needs with medication management, bathing help, dressing, mobility support, and meals, with care tailored to individual plans that fit what each resident prefers or needs. Specially trained caregivers are available for dementia care, and they've got services for things like physical therapy and case management, coordinating outside healthcare, therapies, or more complex needs as they come up, so you get that steady feeling knowing they handle changing health situations pretty steadily. They don't take Medicare for service unless there's some CMS approval, so payment wise, families work that out directly or get advice on next steps, and a community score of 5.5 from Seniorly at least gives folks some outside view into how the place rates on some scales.
Meals here come cooked fresh and focus on nutrition, with a home kitchen feel, served three times a day plus all-day dining options if someone misses mealtime or wants something extra, and chefs work with dietary concerns like allergies and diabetes so food isn't a problem. There's laundry and dry cleaning, transportation, parking, and even a greenhouse for the gardening types, with friendly rules about small pets, so it feels a bit more like home. Fitness and group exercise classes, walking and jogging paths, movie nights, arts and crafts, and musical events help fill the weeks so people stay busy, and there's encouragement for families to join events and stay connected with updates. Ambrosia Senior Care also sets up spaces for private dining, a chapel for quiet moments, and massage therapy for anyone needing a little extra comfort, with community kitchens and education programs sprinkled around for those wanting to join in.
Safety's a big part of the setup here, with emergency alert and call systems fitted throughout all living areas so people can get help quickly, and the property layout considers easy movement, helping residents with walkers or mobility needs get where they need without trouble. Outdoor spaces and garden paths are kept up for fresh air and a bit of sun when the weather's good. For folks who just need a temporary stay or family caregivers need a break, there's respite care too, so short-term arrangements work out without fuss. Staff get known for being joyful, helpful, and kind, making both daily routines and hard days a little smoother with smiles and steady attention. Housekeeping keeps things clean, rooms come furnished if needed, and telephone service is in the rooms in case you want to reach out to family or friends.
They coordinate care across needs like non-ambulatory support, help with transfers, and even memory care if that's needed, making sure living here isn't just about a bed but about staying involved, safe, and as healthy as possible. Communal living spaces invite people to join in and keep spirits up, and every detail, from meals to activities, is meant to balance independence and support, so life feels settled, safe, and warm without getting too fancy or overcomplicated. Respite care is there for short-term help, and anyone interested can ask about service details, room choices, and ongoing support options.
