Edelita's Board and Care sits in a quiet neighborhood at 1424 Frances St, Redlands, CA 92374 and looks after a small group of up to six seniors in a home-like setting, which means residents and caregivers can get to know each other well and the atmosphere feels friendly and close-knit. The staff helps with personal needs like bathing, dressing, grooming, bathroom use, and reminders for medication, and some people like the convenience of having a mobile barber or hairdresser who comes in. Meals come homemade three times a day with the ability to adjust menus for folks who have conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure, and there are snacks if someone needs them between meals. Some seniors have special care needs, and Edelita's can offer palliative care as well as memory care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, so the home is set up to keep everyone safe and comfortable, with steps in place to lower confusion and prevent wandering. Assisted living suites and board and care rooms are available, covering daily support and supervision by staff who can also help with insulin doses and two-person transfers if required.
