Windrose Care Home sits on Windrose Lane in Santa Rosa, California, and welcomes up to six residents in a quiet, single-story home with a relaxed, family-like feeling that seems to come through in the daily routine, because everything's arranged for seniors who want both support and independence, and you'll find staff who speak English and sometimes other languages too, carefully caring for residents day and night. The care home holds a California state license, and you'll see they're serious about safety and trust, because the caregivers go through screenings with the FBI and DOJ, and everyone gets full training in things like CPR and medication help, so residents can rely on real 24-hour support and rapid help when they press the emergency alert system.
Rooms come as either private or semi-private, always fully furnished, and there are published prices that spell out what you pay, plus the environment stays comfortable year-round with air conditioning and Wi-Fi, and meals-three each day, plus two snacks-are made with organic foods, with choices for different diets. Windrose offers help with bathing, dressing, grooming, and managing medications, alongside housekeeping and even laundry and dry-cleaning, so every detail gets managed for peace of mind, while all-day dining makes meals social and flexible. For residents who need more, there are options for skilled nursing, memory care, hospice, and Parkinson's care, with activities like movie nights, group meals, and community-sponsored events, all planned to nurture both mind and body.
Windrose has gardens, walking paths, a community lounge, and outdoor spaces, and embraces the Montessori approach to help residents live with as much independence and dignity as possible while keeping them safe and cared for, because that seems important here. The facility is wheelchair accessible, with a 24-hour call system, and offers transportation, parking, and even help with moving in, so families and residents don't feel overwhelmed. By keeping the setting small-only six beds-Windrose can deliver detailed, personalized care, foster connections, and help everybody feel valued. The care team is trained to respond to each person's unique needs, using individualized plans for support and cognitive wellness, and you'll see reviews and ratings posted, which are favorable, usually five stars, because people tend to feel safe and well looked after here. Windrose Care Home calls itself an RCFE, but sometimes you might see it described as an Adult Foster Home, Personal Care Home, or Assisted Living Home, depending on where you're from, and it really does offer a full range of services like assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and independent living, always with a focus on making daily life easier and more rewarding for every resident.
