Casa Angelina assisted living

Casa Angelina assisted living sits at 9977 Buckeye St NW in Albuquerque, about 2.7 miles from Rio Rancho, and stands as a small residential care home with only eight beds, which means folks here tend to know each other and the staff pretty well, making it easier to settle in and feel welcome when coming from outside. The staff works in a friendly way and helps with daily activities, medication, meals, personal care, and things like managing incontinence, diabetes, and even memory care for those who need more support, and they're ready to pitch in with high acuity care and have both staffing and ancillary services to cover different needs as people's health changes. Respite care makes it possible for short stays too, sometimes just while a family member gets a break or needs some time to themselves. There are private and semi-private rooms, including studio layouts, so residents have choices depending on what they like or need, and the rooms are spacious enough to move around comfortably. Folks come together in cozy common areas, a nice backyard, and a front porch that's good for family visits or just sitting outside on warm days, and the community has landscaped gardens for a bit of fresh air and quiet. The meals are made by chefs and planned for good nutrition, because eating well gets harder over time but still makes a difference in day-to-day life, and the staff pays attention to what each person likes or needs when it comes to food. Activities fill the calendar, both for keeping the mind busy and encouraging people to move around and connect with each other, and there's a real focus on fostering dignity, joy, and meaningful connections through organized group outings and gatherings. People here get help when they need it, but they're also encouraged to stay independent and do what they can on their own, which some families appreciate, and there's a strong sense of kindness and support among residents and staff alike. Casa Angelina offers assisted living and board and care, so folks with different levels of support needs can be comfortable knowing there's help close by. Every effort aims to help people keep as much independence as possible while making sure safety and comfort are part of daily life.
