A Verona Court III is a small care home in California that can support up to 6 residents, offering private, semi-private, and one-bedroom units. The staff gives care around the clock and treats residents with respect and kindness, making sure each person's needs and preferences get attention. The home focuses on assisted living and specialized memory care for those with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia. Residents get help with bathing, dressing, transferring, and managing medications, as well as support for incontinence, mobility challenges, and diabetes. The environment stays quiet and peaceful, and caregivers aim to reduce confusion and prevent wandering, taking steps like bed alarms that alert staff, even though these alarms don't stop residents from getting up.
Electric hospital beds with lowered height settings are there for those who have trouble moving, but Medicare doesn't cover the rental cost, which runs about $155 a month. Caregivers live in the home, and the community gives 24-hour supervision and support for daily activities. The building is wheelchair accessible, and rooms have furnishings, as well as an emergency alert system. Cats and dogs are welcome as pets.
Residents receive home-cooked meals three times daily, with special diets accommodated, and there are amenities like a dining room and visiting stylists. Housekeeping, laundry, and dry cleaning are included. Scheduled activities fill social and wellness needs, with regular programs, outings, movie and music nights, arts and crafts, and even fitness classes. The home often organizes trips to local cafes, parks, pharmacies, and doctors, plus places of worship, theaters, and hospitals nearby. Transportation is available for appointments, errands, and excursions, and parking is provided.
There's a policy for visiting hours from 9 am to 7 pm daily with no strict restrictions. For families who need it, the home offers both long-term stays and short-term respite care. The pricing for care stays fixed for life, no matter how needs change, which can help families plan. The setting tries to feel like a regular home, making it easier for residents to build friendships and stay engaged in daily life. The staff focuses on nutrition, safety, and personal comfort, with a goal to make the community calm and supportive for every resident.
