Lafayette Heights Residential Care

Lafayette Heights Residential Care sits right in a quiet Lafayette, CA neighborhood with a small group home setting for up to 6 residents, so folks usually get to know each other well and nobody feels lost in a crowd, and from what's given, the place only takes female and male residents, so there's a mix of folks, and they get help day and night with things like showering, bathing, grooming, dressing, getting in and out of bed, plus the staff helps with medication and makes sure medical needs get coordinated. The rooms come furnished, with private bathrooms and wheelchair accessible showers, and the place keeps common areas, indoor and out, for socializing, activities, and gathering together, with gardens and walking paths when someone wants some air or a bit of exercise. Meals are homemade three times daily, with special diets like low salt or diabetes-friendly taken care of, and residents can usually eat in a dining room, plan to have snacks or food options any time of day, and join in entertainment like music therapy, movies, board games, or pet visits, plus scheduled programs when they want to join in something with the group. Nurses are on staff, a doctor's on call, plus there's physical therapy and podiatrist services, so medical concerns get timely attention, and for folks who need extra help, the place does non-ambulatory care and incontinence care, so families don't have to worry if someone's got bigger needs, or when hospice or respite stays come up, they'll be ready. Residents can have pets with them, and the facility adds little details like phone access in the rooms, transportation options (even for errands, appointments, or religious visits), and things like laundry and housekeeping so the basics are covered day to day. Lafayette Heights Residential Care is meant for seniors who want a smaller home-like community, with supervised help that aims to protect dignity and independence, extra hands for the basics like bathing or dressing, and a safe, quiet spot where new friendships can form and folks can keep busy and comfortable as they age.
