Pruneridge Residential Care Home #3, located at 312 Lowell Drive in Santa Clara, California, has been providing care to seniors since 2009 and is licensed by the state of California under license number 435294334. This community is small, with room for just six residents in either private or shared apartments, and many people like the cozy feeling and personal attention that comes with this size. Pruneridge offers different types of care for seniors, including assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, board and care, respite care, hospice, rehabilitation, and adult day care, so folks can stay even if their care needs change. There's also support for people with Alzheimer's or mild cognitive impairment, and the staff have experience with dementia care waivers.
The home has 24-hour supervision and features safety measures like emergency alert systems, grab bars, secured grounds, and ADA-compliant bathrooms, which can give peace of mind to both residents and their families. There's always at least one registered nurse and other skilled staff awake and available for help at any hour, so if anyone needs help with things like bathing, dressing, spoon-feeding, transfers, incontinence, medication management, diabetes monitoring, or Parkinson's care, help comes quickly. The team also manages medications, coordinates with health providers, carries out health checkups, helps with moving into the community, and keeps up with ongoing health status.
Residents get three daily meals with options for special diets, and the home helps with laundry and housekeeping so apartments stay clean and comfortable. Social activities happen every day, including creative games, exercise classes, arts and crafts, movie nights, garden walks, off-site trips, and picnics, which gives everyone a chance to stay active or just pass the time together. There are furnished rooms, shared living spaces like a dining room and library, community patios, walking trails, large balconies, a garden, and an on-site salon and barbershop. Pruneridge also welcomes pets, so folks don't have to give up their companions when they move. Residents can use the computer area, have access to scheduled transportation, and parking is available, which is handy for visiting family and outings.
Each apartment, whether studio, shared, or a single bedroom, is designed to be functional with emergency response systems installed in every room. Staff help with everything from laundry to dressing, showering, toileting, home upkeep, and support with sitting up and down, so residents get physical help as often as needed. The small size makes it easier for the staff to focus care on each person's individual needs, from mild memory loss to more complex medical care, and the community tries to foster a comfortable home for every stage of aging. Residents can continue living here even as their health changes, and all support is designed to let seniors age comfortably, with as much dignity and independence as possible.
