Morehead's Family Home Care is a small board and care home in California licensed for up to 4 residents, and it focuses on memory care, respite care, assisted living, and hospice services. The home sits in a quiet neighborhood and has both indoor and outdoor common areas like a book room, garden spaces, a hot tub, steam or health room, and areas for games or crafts, all meant to help residents relax or socialize in a close, home-like setting. People with memory loss, like Alzheimer's and dementia, get specialized care here, including 24-hour support, dedicated programs, memory-enhancing activities, and a secured environment that helps keep everyone safe, with the added comfort of an enclosed courtyard and security system to help prevent wandering.
Caregivers work all hours and help with daily needs such as bathing, dressing, toileting, grooming, prescription management, and incontinence support, always aiming to maintain the dignity and independence of those staying here. Residents live in private rooms, and both short-term respite stays and longer-term care options are available when family caregivers need a break or when someone needs a safe place to recover or rest. Meals are homemade and served three times a day, with special diet options for those dealing with medical conditions like high blood pressure or diabetes, and there's always help with meal preparation if someone has trouble eating alone.
There are daily activities on-site such as movie nights, physical fitness, music therapy, animal therapy, tabletop games, and regular social evenings, plus outings to places in the community and spiritual visits, all planned by a full-time activity director who keeps everyone engaged no matter what their needs or interests might be. Devotional services happen right on site, and the staff can arrange transportation for doctor visits, errands, or even shopping, with both complimentary and paid options. A mobile hairdresser or barber visits regularly, and the community remains non-smoking indoors in every public and private area to keep things safe and healthy.
Morehead's Family Home Care pays close attention to personalized care plans, always looking to help residents enjoy their independence while getting the help they need through kind companionship, emotional support, and encouragement to join in social and fitness programs whenever possible. Staff are trained to work with memory care residents and support all aspects of their well-being, while providing a stable, familiar atmosphere where new ties to both neighbors and caregivers can easily form. The facility accepts private pay and Long Term Care Insurance and is set up for those who want a simple, close-knit option that emphasizes comfort, safety, and daily connection with attentive, experienced caregivers.
