Americare Assisted Living sits at 1234 S Montebello Blvd in Montebello, California, and has space for up to 12 residents at a time, which keeps things personal and usually quieter than bigger places, and the building is licensed as a Residential Care Home for the Elderly by the state of California since November 4, 2015. Residents get a choice between shared apartments, studio, or one-bedroom units, and every room has its own private bathroom with a wheelchair-accessible shower. Fully furnished rooms come with cable or satellite TV, Wi-Fi, phone, and emergency response systems, and all are designed to be accessible and comfortable for seniors who might have trouble getting around. There are both indoor and outdoor common areas, a garden, walking and jogging paths, a theater room, and an entertainment and games room so folks have places to socialize, watch movies, or just sit and relax.
Americare Assisted Living has staff on-site around the clock, including licensed nurses, caregivers, and care aides, who can offer help with bathing, dressing, moving about, managing incontinence, and daily medication. They prepare meals on-site, keep diets in mind for things like allergies and diabetes, and serve three fresh chef-prepared meals each day with snacks available all day, plus help with individual dining if needed. The caregivers assist residents with laundry, light housekeeping, and keep up with regular health monitoring, routine physician checkups, and coordinate with other healthcare providers. Some nurses can handle higher acuity needs, and staff are trained for conditions like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, cancer, and dementia, so there's memory care programs and disease-specific care along with support for diabetes and other daily health needs. Hospice care services are available, as are short-term and respite stays for those who just need temporary help.
For folks who want to stay active or connected, Americare has scheduled activities each day, like games, exercise programs, movie nights, and community-sponsored events in both the indoor and outdoor spaces, sometimes even holding outings or providing transportation to doctor appointments, stores, or community sites. Transportation options include rides for medical reasons and personal needs, and parking is on-site for those who drive. The community's designed to make moving in smoother, too, with guidance and move-in coordination help for new residents plus consultations for families making care decisions, including support with VA benefits and attendance programs. Residents get full safety features, like emergency pendants and 24/7 security, which helps everyone feel a little more secure. Pets are welcome, a dietitian is on-site, and residents have access to high-definition TVs, internet, and a community kitchen along with spaces for wellness activities. Staff encourages independence but helps with anything needed and keeps families updated, so residents get the care they want without feeling rushed or crowded. No specific pricing is published, but families can access reviews and talk to consultants to share their needs and ask questions, which can make planning a bit easier. Americare Assisted Living provides many of the services and comforts you'd expect from a board and care home and assisted living, especially for seniors looking for memory care, nursing help, and a simple, safe place to live.
