Perpetual Care sits in a quiet La Verne neighborhood at 3027 Wenwood Street and takes care of up to six seniors in a home-like setting, offering residential care, assisted living, and memory care-including Alzheimer's and dementia care-for people who need a little or a lot of help each day, and the staff's always there, day or night, to help with things like bathing, dressing, medication, meals, and moving around, while also handling all the chores like cooking, cleaning, laundry, and linen changes so residents don't have to worry about any of that. The place offers both private and shared furnished suites with things like kitchenettes, private bathrooms, air-conditioning, cable, phone, and internet, and there's always someone on-call in case residents need assistance. Residents eat together in a community dining room, where the staff provides one or two meals a day, with organic ingredients and special diet options for health conditions such as diabetes or hypertension, and there's daily activity help and transportation arrangements for doctor visits or errands as needed, plus housekeeping and maintenance covered.
Perpetual Care is pretty small compared to bigger places, since they only take up to six people, so the community feels tight-knit-more like a family-with caregivers and nurses helping with personal care, medication, and things like transferring residents safely from beds or chairs, and they also try to work with people who have insulin needs or need help from two people at the same time, depending on staff. It's pet-friendly too, meaning residents can bring a dog or cat, and the staff really encourages everyone to stay engaged with planned group activities, exercise and music programs, board games, movie entertainment, gardens, creative clubs, monthly events, walking paths, and even things like animal therapy or a mobile hairdresser. There are community spaces like a book room, recreation rooms, a jacuzzi, sauna, garden areas, as well as parking and transportation for shopping or faith-based trips, and security measures like a 24-hour call system and emergency alert systems for peace of mind.
There's a strong feeling of safety and belonging in the way the staff work to keep residents as independent as possible, always available to help with special medical care like incontinence or memory support, and they coordinate with health providers, too, offering both home care and hospice support if needed. The community lets in both men and women, and some rooms can be set based on gender preferences if that's important, and residents get to choose from a few different living arrangements-whether in a shared room or a private suite, with amenities to make things comfortable and simple. Perpetual Care holds a license (California Department of Social Services, license number 197803655), and people visiting or living here have described the home as clean, cozy, and welcoming, with plenty of support so nobody feels lonely, and the staff tries their best to make everyone feel cared for, like part of a family.
