San Mateo Villa

San Mateo Villa is a senior living community located at 1661 McKinley St in the Parkside area of San Mateo, California, and people will find that it is a residential care home with six licensed beds in a quiet neighborhood, and residents can enjoy both independent and assisted living options, with support for those who need help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, hygiene, and food preparation, and those who are mostly independent but still need a bit of help now and then. The staff provides care services including medication management, incontinence care, and help for people who aren't able to walk easily, along with regular check-ins and 24-hour supervision, which can bring some peace of mind to families. People will notice the community has a home-like setting, and since there are ten or fewer beds, things tend to feel more personal and less crowded, and the facility also allows pets, so residents won't have to be separated from their companions. There are spacious one- and two-bedroom apartments, plus indoor common areas, an outdoor pool, gardens with walking paths, and on-site features like a fitness center, which can help support an active lifestyle, while social activities like group meals, movie nights, devotional gatherings, and other daily events keep everyone connected. Meals are provided, and there's diabetic care, plus a memory care program for seniors with cognitive needs, and a respite program for those who only need short-term care. There are options for transportation and parking, including complimentary rides, and the grounds are well-kept, with areas for socializing and relaxing. The cost for assisted living is about $4,967 per month, but payment by Medicare is available only if the facility is certified. Staff are trained to work with personal care and health conditions, and the community follows California's regulations for residential care for the elderly. Visitors are welcome during opening hours, and the staff gives directions to help families find the place easily. Overall, San Mateo Villa aims to balance independence and assistance, with a strong community feel for seniors who want both personal care and chances to stay active.
