Burbank Manor sits in Santa Rosa, CA, as a small residential care home with a real focus on comfort and personal care for older folks, and you'll see right away it's got only six beds, so everybody gets plenty of attention in a quiet, home-like setting. It's licensed as a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly-license number #496803071-and operates with both assisted living and independent living options, plus memory care for those who need more support, especially if they're living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and hospice care is also available for those with greater needs. Folks live here in different room types, like furnished studios, shared living spaces, and small one-bedroom apartments, and the staff are always around, day and night, to offer help with things like bathing, dressing, toileting, getting from place to place, and even feeding if someone has trouble eating by themselves, and for those who use wheelchairs or aren't very mobile, the place has safe designs and non-ambulatory care options to keep everyone comfortable and secure.
Meals are a big part of life at Burbank Manor, where a chef prepares home-cooked food with special menus for people who need allergy-sensitive or diabetes-friendly choices, and there are snacks between meals plus a communal kitchen for those who want to be a bit independent. Staff help manage medicines, arrange for doctor visits every month, and coordinate with healthcare providers, which means nobody has to keep track of prescriptions on their own. The care team-including licensed caregivers for memory care-can also help with special needs, like Parkinson's care or hospice, and the community holds dementia and hospice waivers for providing specialized services under California rules.
People here get to join lots of group activities, from arts and crafts classes to movie nights in the in-house theater room, games of bingo or cards in the games room, and walks outdoors thanks to safe, walking paths and some pretty spacious balconies for those who love fresh air, and the staff put together a calendar of events with daily entertainment to keep everyone connected. There's even a wellness program that covers fall prevention, and if someone wants community outings, Burbank Manor offers free transportation for doctor visits, errands, or family visits, along with parking for guests who come by car. There's always someone awake both day and night, staff carry out regular personalized needs assessments, and the emergency alert system and panic buttons in the apartments mean help's never far away.
Burbank Manor welcomes pets, so residents don't have to part with their companions, and the place has all sorts of supportive touches-wi-fi, HD TVs, computers, accessible bathrooms, and laundry and housekeeping (including dry cleaning), plus a concierge service that helps arrange for anything extra like home health visits, pharmacy deliveries, or move-in help. It's a retirement and 55+ community, and families can visit, get counseling or support, and join in on community events or meals in the main dining room. Burbank Manor is built to help older adults stay as independent as possible while getting any help they need, whether that's skilled nursing, medication monitoring, or just a safe, loving place to eat, relax, and enjoy good company in Santa Rosa's 95404 zip code, tucked within Sonoma County.
