Winston Manor Care Home sits on Elkwood Drive in South San Francisco and provides different care types for seniors, like assisted living, memory care, independent living, and specialized nursing home care for people who don't need to be in a hospital. The place has nurses on staff and offers 24-hour supervision with awake staff always available, along with skilled nursing and help for high medical needs, so people who have serious health conditions or need hospital-like care can stay here safely. The building holds up to 6 residents even though some pieces mention more, and has both private and semi-private rooms, which are fully furnished, with options for wheelchair accessible showers and other features aimed at comfort and accessibility.
Staff here help with bathing, dressing, moving around, and medication management, and they can also help with diabetes care, high blood pressure, incontinence care, and support for transfers needing one or two people or a lift. There's a memory care section that's secured and separate, using alarms and bracelets to help keep residents with dementia or Alzheimer's safe, plus staff are trained to help people with behaviors that need special attention. Technology alerts staff if someone tries to wander off, and the facility is set up to handle both light and heavy care depending on someone's health.
Residents get three homemade meals a day, with the kitchen able to work with special diets, including for diabetes or food allergies, and there's help during meals if it's needed. The home has daily activities, trips around Chicago, a book room, movie nights, music, games, fitness classes, and walking paths in the garden. Folks can also use the sauna, health room, or get a haircut from the mobile hairdresser. Amenities include laundry and linen services, housekeeping, emergency alerts, cable, WiFi, transportation and parking, and move-in coordination for new residents. They also drive residents to the doctor, on errands, or out for religious services, if needed.
Winston Manor offers respite care for short stays and hospice care, with the staff ready to meet changing needs as people age or need more help. Prices average out to about $3,000 a month for a studio, around $2,600 for a semi-private room, and short-term stays cost about $100 a day. The community sits close to local stores, cafes, and pharmacies in a diverse neighborhood, so there's plenty nearby. Staff always try to keep a friendly, supportive feeling among residents, and look after health, safety, and well-being every day.
