Valley View Care Center serves seniors who need help with daily activities but don't always need full-time nursing care, and they do have nursing home care for those who need it, offering personal support and medical care around the clock in a home-like setting, and you'll find that the place is independently owned by a church-related non-profit group, so decisions often feel a bit more personal and staff tend to care about what matters to the residents, and they are part of the California Association of Health Facilities. With 22 certified beds and about 28 residents, the center has a 24-hour call system, nurse supervision, and a fully sprinklered fire safety system, and folks get help with bathing, dressing, medication, and mealtime, plus there's post-acute care for those coming out of the hospital, wound care, help after surgery, and chronic disease management, with both Medicare and Medicaid accepted.
Community life at Valley View includes programs to cut back on antipsychotic use, organized family and resident councils, and chances for volunteers to be involved. You'll also find activities, arts and crafts, and movie nights, and residents can take part in community-sponsored programs or spend time in the garden or on the walking paths, with rooms where you can have a phone, laundry, and housekeeping help; meals are served all day in a dining room, and special diets like allergy-friendly or diabetic choices are available. Staff work on their professional development, and there's attention to disaster planning and keeping both residents and workers engaged and safe. The center offers assessments and care planning for each person, with a focus on resident-centered care and making sure people are satisfied and comfortable, and nurse aides train to meet the care needs of folks living there. Valley View isn't a continuing care retirement community and has no special focus facility label, but it's recognized for good standards in satisfaction and care, and though the online info can sometimes be tricky to get without a login or more details, what stands out is its simple, supportive, and honest way of caring for seniors who can't live safely at home anymore.
