Young at Heart IV sits in Sacramento, CA, in a quiet residential neighborhood where seniors get care in a true family-style setting, since the home has only six licensed beds and both private and semi-private rooms, so it feels much more personal and less overwhelming than bigger places with hundreds of people; this is one of the Young At Heart RCFE homes, with others called No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, and No. 5, and each house runs as a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly, or RCFE, which looks after both men and women who need different levels of care, such as assisted living, independent living, memory care, and continuing care. Residents get help staying independent with support for daily needs like bathing, dressing, medication reminders, meal preparation, and even move-in coordination, while the staff, including a highly trained geriatric nurse owner, Lillian Trapse Sisayan, are on hand all day and night to offer 24-hour supervision, medication management, diabetic care, incontinence care, high acuity care, and hospice services, especially for folks with Alzheimer's and other memory challenges.
Meals come prepared each day and residents share group dining in charming, comfortable surroundings, with special menu options like vegetarian, kosher, diabetes-friendly, and meals tailored for personal dietary needs, and everything's served in a way that promotes dignity and comfort. Housekeeping and linen services mean residents can stay comfortable and worry less about chores, and the facility keeps a regular schedule of daily activities and group events to help boost quality of life, while pet accommodations let people keep their animal companions close by if they choose. Each home stays licensed by the state and local authorities, with the license number 342701170 for Young at Heart IV, and offers non-ambulatory care so people using walkers or wheelchairs get what they need, and with features focused on ensuring safety, independence, well-being, and a sense of family, it becomes easier for residents to stay at their highest possible level of functioning.
The staff promise to treat everyone with respect and dignity, and encourage all residents to keep busy, make friends, and feel comfortable in their remaining years, while amenities across all Young At Heart houses include personalized care, worry-free living, a welcoming space, and gracious interiors. Although the facility doesn't accept Medicare, it remains fully licensed and works hard to provide elder care, long-term care, and a wide range of on-site amenities, including activities, health care services, help with doctor's appointments, and special attention for people with diabetes or Alzheimer's. Families are welcome to schedule a tour to see for themselves how Young at Heart IV upholds its mission of comfort, personal attention, and support for seniors needing a small, home-like place to live on their own terms.
