Lake Balboa Boarding Care

Lake Balboa Boarding Care sits on Marlin Place in the Van Nuys area of Lake Balboa, California, about 6 miles from San Fernando, offering care to a small group of six residents in a quiet residential neighborhood, and folks there will find both private and semi-private studio rooms, all furnished with simple comforts like telephone access, wheelchair-accessible bathrooms, and emergency alert systems, while the whole place feels calm and very clean, which many families have liked. The care team provides help with bathing, dressing, medication management, personal care, and transfers, and staff is present 24 hours a day with medical help on call, so residents get the support they need while still feeling like they've got their independence left-there's assisted living services, and also specialized boarding care, coordinated healthcare, and options for residents needing memory care, nursing care, or basic help with daily tasks. The facility stays focused on serving seniors who want to keep their routines and stay engaged, and offers daily activities, community-sponsored events, and regular movie nights, plus spaces for indoor and outdoor relaxation, such as a garden and walking paths, and the facility coordinates transportation so residents can easily reach nearby shopping, dining, and local entertainment spots. Meals are prepared fresh with an eye toward nutritious, flavorful choices, including options for allergies and special diets like diabetes, and laundry, dry cleaning, and housekeeping are all managed by the staff so residents can enjoy more free time; there are also comprehensive wellness programs to support health, safety features to encourage independence, and plenty of simple comforts to make things feel like home. Lake Balboa Boarding Care holds a California state license (#197608363), receives good reviews with a 4.5-star rating, and continues to keep a straightforward approach to reliable care, maintaining a clear, honest system for reviews and family feedback, along with advisors who discuss needs and answer questions so families feel less stress during decision-making. The small size means folks can expect a more personal setting, with staff who get to know each resident and aim to help everyone lead a meaningful, comfortable life, enjoying everything from mountain views to home-cooked meals.
