Santo Niño Residential CareHome #1 sits over on Clayton Avenue in San Jose and holds up to 6 senior residents in a regular house with both private and shared rooms, so folks have options whether they want to be with a roommate or not. The caregivers there know how to help seniors who deal with Alzheimer's and other kinds of memory problems, so families can get some peace of mind knowing memory care is available as well as help for people with Parkinson's disease. The staff help with bathing, grooming, dressing, bathroom use, taking medications, and moving around if someone needs a hand getting in and out of bed or chairs. They make three homemade meals each day and will change the menu for folks who need special diets, are diabetic, have allergies, or need help eating or managing food. Residents can expect laundry help, housekeeping, linen service, and move-in support to make settling in easier.
Individual care plans mean every person has their own set of needs looked at, so nobody's treated the same and nothing's skipped-plus the caregivers speak English, transport people to appointments or shopping, and help spouses or single seniors, which makes the place flexible for different family situations. The facility welcomes pets, offers memory care, respite, and hospice services, and is known officially as a Residential Care Elderly home with state licensing and regular inspections. For people who want something more social, there are workout and craft programs, game nights, music therapy, movie nights, animal therapy, and walks in the courtyard or garden. Rooms come with high-definition TVs, alarm systems, and some have private kitchens or dining rooms so there's some choice in how people live day to day. There's a mobile hairdresser, a culinary chef with a dementia-friendly menu, an on-site dietitian, a library, and spaces for art and crafts or group activities, so daily life can be a mix of quiet and social as residents like.
The place has wheelchair access and helps with incontinence, transfers, and non-ambulatory needs for folks who don't get around easily. There's 24-hour supervision by a team of caregivers and the setup lets the staff work closely with doctors or nurses if healthcare needs pop up. The CareHome has emergency alert systems in rooms, a telephone in rooms, parking spaces, walking paths, and a game room. People can leave reviews online, claim the listing, message the facility directly, and read general information from the overview section, so communication with Santo Niño Residential CareHome #1 is pretty open. The CareHome aims to help seniors live both independently and with the support they need, whether married or single, and tries to make things simple with a homey environment, whether for those wanting short-term respite or longer-term care.
