Pinole Assisted Living Comm offers a peaceful setting with mature trees, landscaped grounds, and hillside views, where folks aged 62 and up, including those with disabilities or memory loss, can find the support they need without fuss. The community provides assisted living, independent living, memory care, nursing home services, and options for continuing care. Residents can live in studio or one-bedroom apartments, some with kitchenettes or full kitchens, and in-unit laundry machines, so there's plenty of comfort and convenience, and the whole place is built with accessible features for wheelchairs and those who need help getting around. There are amenities like a heated indoor pool, fitness center, salon and barber shop, theater, library, and a variety of activity rooms, where residents can enjoy painting classes, bingo, crafts, stretching, Tai Chi, yoga, art, brain fitness, cooking classes, and even trips out of the community or intergenerational programs if they feel up to it.
The staff, including their full-time activity director, provides round-the-clock care-24 hours a day, seven days a week, including for those needing insulin shots, medication reminders, help with dressing, bathing, eating, toileting, and other daily activities. Folks who need standby help for transfers, use of mechanical lifts, or have non-ambulatory needs will find the staff can assist. There's a secure memory care building with the Compass Rose® Memory Care program that's specially made for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, helping reduce confusion and prevent wandering, and they even use alarm bracelets for extra safety. The staff can care for folks who wander, act out, or have major behavioral issues, so families won't need to worry about the right care being available. Behavioral care, hospice, and respite care come as extra options, and there are devotional programs on-site and offsite if residents want spiritual connections. Residents can have pets-dogs and cats are welcome-and there's pet care available.
Meals come prepared by a professional chef, served in restaurant-style dining rooms, with choices for special diets like vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, low-sodium, and low-sugar, and residents can request guest meals or room service if they wish. Daily life is filled with social and hobby groups, ballroom dancing, educational talks, museum visits, and volunteer opportunities, meant to keep folks active, engaged, and well. Transportation is available, utility services are mostly covered, and the staff or volunteers help with structure and support. Pinole Assisted Living Comm emphasizes respect and dignity, lets residents remain as independent as possible, offers help when needed, and tries to keep everything maintenance-free with housekeeping and concierge services so folks can focus more on living and less on chores.
